NEW ST !!!!!!
« on: December 21, 2012, 11:40:19 PM »
I was down my local Honda Dealer today and 'someone' I know down there said, "Have you come in to buy a new ST?" :eek

"New? There's no such thing as a 'NEW' ST." says I. :-(((

"There soon will be." Says he. (With a knowing wink) :wink1

I cornered him a short time later and he assures me that there is a new ST in the offing but it wont be cheap. Just then his boss walked around the corner and called him away so that's all I've got. :crazy

Will post more when I hear more.

There's certainly no ST on Honda Japan's website, which shows their line-up of bikes for 2013.
See   http://www.honda.co.jp/motor/
While I can't read japanese, I can look at the pictures of what's offering.

I saw with interest the cross runner with luggage ( very decorative) STill not a worthy replacement to the beST sports tourer around.
