Which Nomad Moto Base Do You Need?
Same strength. Same materials. Two bases — built for different bike shapes.

The 10-Second Answer
Go Standard if:
◆ You ride most mid-size ADV & dual-sport bikes
◆ Your bike has a narrow to average rear seat
◆ You want a simple, lightweight setup
Go Adjustable if:
◆ You ride a big ADV machine (BMW GS Adventure, Norden 901, KLR650 Gen 3 and similar)
◆ Your bike has a wide or flat rear seat
◆ You want maximum stability under load
