Four hundred miles have passed beneath the Vulcan ® 1600 Nomad ™ floorboards since daybreak, but the smell of moist earth
and sage lead you on. Aboard the Vulcan Nomad 1600, you’re comfortably in command—and not the least bit tired. The big 95
cubic-inch V-Twin engine sends its prodigious torque through a smooth, quiet shaft drive, while liquid cooling and digital fuel
injection provide the efficiency and reliability you need for touring. The Vulcan 1600 Nomad is precisely designed for life on the
road. It features a special touring frame and a host of riding comforts including vibration-damping engine mounts, air-assisted
rear shocks, a backrest and grab rails for the passenger seat, and an adjustable windshield and fork-mounted air deflectors
for maximum wind protection. Top it off with generous side-opening hard-case saddlebags and a large 5.3-gallon fuel capacity,
and it’s no wonder you feel the road calling—and the Vulcan 1600 Nomad answering.
