Nomad ADV Rally Tower KTM EXC 2020-2021

I thought long and hard about installing a Rally Tower on my KTM 500excf. I considered it for 2 previous bikes and decided "not yet." Then I visited Cyclops Adventures and checked out the Nomad tower set up on Darryl's KTM. After a spin around the neighborhood to get a feel for it, I decided it was time. I chose the Tower with Cyclops dual lights because I wanted a true "low beam" function to respect DOT laws and road etiquette. They produce plenty of light up front and look awesome to boot! Installation was very fun. No, I am not being sarcastic.........it was enjoyable and very therapeutic to examine, and put the puzzle together. The machine work, fasteners, and other parts are high quality. They really enhance the look of my bike. I decided to fabricate a dash to compliment my tower and give more room for my OEM odo, Trail Tech Voyager Pro, Garmin Montana, and other electrical switching.. I am 6'0" In sitting position at 60mph I experienced a fair amount of buffeting from wind coming over the screen. I thought I had made an expensive mistake buying the tower. Then I remembered the rather long visor on my Touratech Carbon dual sport helmet. The one with the extra extension that works so good. I removed the visor and my head stopped bouncing about at speed. I miss my visor, but the benefits of the tower win out. There are a few lessons learned putting my tower together and dialing in the wiring etc. feel free to find me on facebook if you wish to dialogue about it. Conclusions: 1. Happy I made the decision to use a tower on my long distance ADV "light weight" bike. 2. After scoping out various tower options, I am confident the Nomad is the best choice for me. 3. I am glad I ordered my Nomad from Cyclops. Darryl and his team really know their stuff and were very helpful in my process. I can't stress enough the "who" we buy from is as important as the "what" we buy. 4. It is a sincere privilege to be able to buy, design, and create a motorcycle "exactly" how I want it for the way I want to use it. Lots of other people's creativity comes into play so we can ride cool bike like this, and I am grateful.

This is a terrific product that you could try buying over the Internet but don't do it! Nomad makes quality products but you need the service that Cyclops can provide. As a dealer, Cyclops can effectively run interference with the vendor and make things happen. Nomad plus Cyclops is the winning combination. I'm speaking from experience, so if you don't want to wait for months, give Taryn a call!
