RafaST from Valencia Spain...
« on: June 06, 2012, 04:47:27 AM »
"Having a thick skin"

I wonder how that reads to a Spaniard!?  :grin

That's the prettiest ST1100 I've ever seen.  I love that shade of blue.  Is it a factory colour in Europe or has it been repainted?

Is that a roo whistle on top of the tip-over cover?   ::)

Welcome to the Forum, Rafa.


Thank you very much DIESEL. For me it is an honor to be able to show you some more pictures of my ST therefore os command here any more. Greetings.

That is a very good paint job then, covering Maroon with light blue.  I did notice the custom seat.  It looks very comfortable.
You certainly have some excellent scenery in Europe.

Thanks for posting RafaST. Like Royst1100, I think we have some fantastic roads and scenery in Australia. I think the old adage about not appreciating what's out your own back door is very apt. I think RafaST, you would love to ride in Australia and enjoy our weather and scenery. Have a look at some of our ride posts.
Regards. Skip.

When you do come, be sure to ride on the other side of the road- like Britain: LEFT side.   :grin

As they said, we have great scenery, but you Europeans have got the historical buildings.  Our oldest are only 200 years or so.
