Well, let's say that I was born in the first half of the past century. Hahaha!

Thanks guys for your inputs to the subject. I went for the Nomadic because of the RotoPak add-on with no change to my usual luggage loading method. Here I come Hudson Bay!

This is the first bike I ever bought. I was posted in England at the time and used it to commute between home and base. It was a twin cylinder 250cc but do not recall the three letters it went by. In North America, it was a single cylinder engine I think.

Bienvenue du Québec. Belles réalisations.
