Hello from Perth!
« on: September 02, 2013, 10:39:01 AM »
Howdy everyone,

Been riding for 15 years since getting my motorcycle license, had a number of road/trails, sports bikes, cruisers but never an ST.

Picked up an ST1100 over the weekend, white ex-police and I'm stoked with it... has 60,000kms on the clock, runs and looks like new.   Has side panniers with a top box, corbin seat, taller tinted screen and delkevic pipes.

Hoping to come out for a ride every so often with the perth folk. Let us know if you're from the Rockingham area !

Thank you for the warm welcome everyone!

Johnny things never change over that way, it one day WA will probably follow suit :)

Red has always been known to go faster, I think I'll keep this one white for a while, but wouldn't mind painting it impulse blue one day, but not for a long time.

Hi Dave, Welcome from York, we have a breakfast in York on 22nd Sept if you are interested.

Been looking at the trips on here, I have a fairly busy schedule this month but October onwards would be perfect.  However, if plans change I'll let you know if I'll be able to make it on the 22nd.

Haven't done any long rides for a quite a while now, looking forward to doing them now since I now have a more comfortable bike.
