Hi fellow ST Riders  My name is Don ,and I am 68 years old residing in North East Victoria. Purchased a 1995 ST 1100 week in Gosford and rode it home 750 k that day. Happy to say no aches or pains following, just very tired.  My wife usually travels everywhere with me on the bike. We have had  BMW's in the past together with Z1300. Must say I am thoroughly enjoying the forum and further riding of the ST, together with meeting some fellow members.Enough rambling, thanks for the opportunity of the intro.

Another ST1100 to a good home.  Welcome to the spiritual home of ST Owners.  You can spend hours reading through the posts on here (and that's just this month's worth)!

Hi Don,

Welcome from the NE suburbs of Melbourne.

Make sure to check out your state's ride page for upcoming rides in Vic. http://ozstoc.com/index.php?board=28.0



Here's some direct links for more details:

Harrow RTE: http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=12943.0

Cape Wooloomai RTE: http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=13080.0

Still plenty of room at both events.

Thank you to all to members that wished me a warm welcome on joining the forum. As Skip pointed out, I certainly wish I had discovered the ST sooner.  Hope to meet some of you on a ride in the future, Don Rupp.
