Are you planning some improvements for your ST? Let us know below, there is plenty of experience and good advice on where to get items.
-
I am planning to add:
Highway Pegs (to suit the ST1100)
Driving lights (just a smaller set nothing world changing)
-
I'm planning:
HID headlights
Aux driving lights
Need to fit my video camera
Motorcycle FM radio
Might get one of those SPOT thins in the future if I start riding in some of the more remote areas
And I need to figure something out to be able to make use of the space where the pillion seat would be.
-
I've all ready upgraded the seat to a Saddlemen gel seat and I made up a goat skin seat cover to go over that. Comfy..lol
Now have a 10cm taller slightly tinted screen.
On the list are :
Shelf for dash (for hardwired Strike GPS and camera mount)
Police light mounting brackets so I can relocate driving lights
Cruise Control but throttle lock is ok until then
Battery charging wiring for battery in trailer.
Speakers for helmet as ear plugs are pain.
plus non OEM items
Progressive Rear Shock (next on to do list list after timing belt change)
Progressive front shocks (do them when fork seals need replacing again)
Considering a change of colour or at least a respray in original colour.
Upgraded exhaust system when original needs replacing
Added
Forgot mention that I all ready have towbar, trailer, rear rack and Rjays topcase.
-
None really.
-
Heated grips would be a plus.
A gag to use on the wife when I spend money on the STead.
Maybe a sub woofer to play dof dof music?
:blu13
-
So he has a think and, Hmmmmmmmm maybe some subwoofers and an amp like whats in the car, and a 42" hi def for them long night trips
-
MCL blades as long as I don't get knee issues with them. Asking advice elsewhere.
-
Long term outlook of add ons/farkles to go on the beaST:
Throttle lock (until I can afford Cruise Control, then CC for sure :grin)
Heated grips
Highway blades
Passenger foot peg lowering brackets
Power outlets
Ram balls (for iPhone holder and other stuff)
Grip covers
Bagster tank cover (just have to find one for my bike/right colour, & have the money :wink1 )
John Moorehouse Seats
Handle bar riser
And that's all I can think of for now :eek

:wht11 py
Well I my new black doughnuts just arrived from the US so will be adding them very soon (PR3 both)
Tipsy
-
I will be putting on some reflective panels on the Paniers. Black that reflect white. Just as soon as they arrive.
Wait, there is the Posty now, looks like I fit em tonight.
Photos later.
Thanks for sending them so quickly Peter.
-
I am interested in those so would be interested how they go on the ST11 as the surfaces on the rear panniers are a bit different to the ST13.
-
Pictures will be posted.
These are black panels, designed for the White ST1100PY. They wont be visible in daylight, but will blow white under headlights (or flash)
The panels are being fitted now, My Son does this stuff for a living, so if it gets stuffed up its his fault. :rofl :rofl

I have a set to go on my bike from Peters safety solutions, they the goods, the set I saw on diesels bike where fantastic, no illusions that there was a bike in front of you!
-
That setup looks good. I might measure up parts of my topbox to see if I can fit some tape on it (it is black palstic not painted)
-
The quality of the shaping was excellent, and the kit also contained rubber (surgical) gloves and a plastic scraper / applicator. These have been specifically made for the police ST1100 to go on the black bits..
No body ran into the back of me on the way to work this morning, so either they did the job, I was riding to fast for the cars to get me or both.. :grin :grin :grin
They arent overpowering, and the bit I really like is that they dont stand out in daylight
-

1, Driving Lights (above Mirror with brackets for ST13)

What did surprise me, and I don't know if it's standard on ST1300's, but while rummaging through the right fairing pocket last week, I came across a cigarette lighter power outlet.
Do they all have this?

I wish the 1300 came standard with a power outlet but I'm afraid they don't :(
You are just very lucky :thumb

It's not rocket surgery to install one. You buy them at Autobarn etc for a few bucks and run a 16g or 18g wire via a 10A fuse from your choice of hot battery or switched source. Get one with a plastic cap to keep out unwanted intrusions. IIRC it's a 7/8" hole drilled in the back of the pocket of your choice (I went with lockable left). It takes up no space in the pocket. Brock will check my numbers for us.
-
Sounds good to me Biggles. Just make sure that you dont fit the socket in a place that will hit the frame or wiring..
-
OK, I'll add to the list,
Already fitted:
HID Driving lights
Dash Shelf
Walkman MP3 player
Starcomm1 Advance
Eastern Beaver Fuse Block

Lots of Stainless / Titanium bolts

Paul,
I highly recommend the MCL Tip Over Bars. They saved my leg big time when I clipped that car that stopped in front of me on a green light back in January this year.
Take care,
Dave :wht13

Headlight and tail light modulators are quite legal here in Australia - another good reason to live here :)

Hi Guys, I have read with interest about the mirror deflector kit. Would like a set to compliment my existing wind deflector kit (which came on the bike from the dealer). I have only found UK suppliers, does anybody know of any suppliers in OZ?
Also, interested in Arm Rests for my Pan European top box. Again, I have only found UK suppliers. Any available in OZ?
By the way, The Zumo 660 is a very handy GPS, thoroughly recommended. I had one of those throttle locks on my Suzi GS1100G, and it was ok to relieve the tingles, but useless on hills, and changing wind directions (not my wind issues). I fitted a MC Cruise (made in Melbourne) to my ST immediately after I bought it, in preparation for a trip across to the East. I have since done two trips to Melb and back to Perth, and cannot speak highly enough of it. Yep, expensive, but nothing is too good for the ST1300. The kit is super good, perfectly designed for the ST, and the installation instructions are very comprehensive. Brain numbing really.
Looking forward to info on suppliers for the above two items.
cheers, Mick

Gee thanks Shiney
But I have done a little back reading on this one and watched a video ( just gunna sit on the fence and watch the big kids play first )

:whistle :wink1 :p

The newer machine is all finished now. Last thing to go on was one of the tank bra things from bagster. Thought one of these would work better so the tank colour still shows through the straps. Impressed so far and cheaper than a full tank cover.
The crash snapped bits off the old cover which was a shame because it was the nice light grey one. The repair worked ok but still didn't look right.
Really pleased some bits salvaged before NH478M went to the breaker's yard still work and are having a second chance like intercom and throttle lock.

After the March crash and the neck injury my neck doesn't swivel quite so well. I just removed the wireless reverse cam from a car so am wondering whether it could be handy. Wouldn't be reliant on it but, you never know!

I've got a few farkles on the gold one now and added another one on Saturday. Fitted a GoPro video camera. The missus is doing a PhD and required video footage of rides so I was compelled to do it :wink1. The camera joins my other farkles (some of which were on the bike when I got it):
- MC cruise control
- Bagster tank cover and quick release leather tank bag
- Strike BT GPS
- MCL highway blades
- LED spotlights
- Airhawk
- Wooly fleece sheepskin seat cover
- Steelmate alarm system
- Classic tow hitch
- Single seat conversion
- Handlebar risers
- Tall tinted windscreen
- Staintune mufflers
- Bag rack and large capacity RJays touring bag
Got a few other things I want to do the next one of which is hazard lights.

Well I finally took the plung and odered a set of Delkevic exhausts from the USA and fitted them today. Had some concerns about the distance they had to come from but all went well and they arrived about 10days after I ordered them packaged very well.
Now I am not what you would call handy in terms of working on the beast , but I have to say it took me all of an hour and I had the old pipes off and the new ones on. Could not wait to take it out ,and what a difference. While cruising along its just a gentle rumble , not annoying at all , but give it a hand full and the tin tops sure know you are there.
Now the big boy sounds like it looks and performs and im sure it will add to the pleasure of riding .
I have also booked in to have the seat re designed by John Moorhouse next week.

* Hiway Blades of some description

Hi Rob,
The Delkevics are an awesome exhaust :thumb I hope you love them as much as I do mine :grin (you should post some pics :wink1)
Now as I’ve been thinking about getting my seat modified by John Moorhouse for a while I have a couple of questions for you:
How much is it to get the seat modified?
How long will it take him?
And finally, when you get it back can you post some pics and a review please?
Cheers
Shiney
-
What's the advantage of these exhausts over the originals?
Cheers
Sab
-
Sound and weight for the most part :grin :runyay
With the improved sound the cagers notice the bike more :thumb
And the Delkevics weigh about 20 times less then the original exhaust :eek
And did I mention they sound AWESOME :grin
-
So they're louder?
-
They are louder but to varying degrees by leaving in or taking out the removable baffles (held in with a screw).
They give the bike a bit of a rumble instead of just the standard whine from the engine and (as Rob has discovered) they aren’t obnoxious or annoying like a Harley or the high pitched sportsbike exhausts.
While cruising along its just a gentle rumble , not annoying at all , but give it a hand full and the tin tops sure know you are there.
Rob
Yes it can be loud, when you get up in the revs it gets exponentially louder.
Hope this helps :thumb
Cheers
Shiney

well ou guys have started to convert me :cuss i went and bought a rjays top box :whistle
-
I found when fitting the Staintunes to my 1100 that I gained a bit more 'go' in the 3-4,000 rpm range, which is just at the right spot for over taking. The 'rumble' from them is only mildly louder than the originals and does not get intrusive on long trips. Haven't noticed any change in fuel consumption, and definatly lighter (probably 2Kg each). The increase in power is the best benefit.
:bl11
-
Guys , as Shiney said , the difference in weight between the Delkevic and the standard pipes is astonishing and must impact on performance. In terms of the noise factor I am really happy with the change , while touring along its just a gentle rumble , but give it a hand full such as overtaking or going down in gears and it really sounds like a motor bike should sound . I also love the way the Kevlar pipes look .
Shiney, to answer your questions in relation to the John Moorhouse seats , I have booked my seat in with John ( he is quiet busy , 2 weeks wait to take the seat to him) and he has quoted me $180 to re shape to fit my bum , and he will need the seat to be dropped off on the Monday and should be ready on the Friday.
He has asked me to bring along a photo of me riding the bike to get a better idea of the shape needed. When done I will be happy to report back on the success or lack off.

Strewth Diesel. I hope you can put it back together again!!
There must be a plastic bag full of all sorts of fasteners to play with somewhere in that shed.
You should end up with the tidiest wiring in the biz, unlike others of us who poke them through willy-nilly. :-[

Ok Diesel ,

At a guess young Will-I-am I believe diesel would have the 'clip' diagram laminated and on the wall of his man cave.

Never far away for these jobs..... :grin
Oh - and if I can't remember where it all goes - I might just have a 'STreetfighter' Rat ST! :eek
But I might not make today's ride! :'(

Got carried away a bit did we :wink1 You could have washed it fiirst! Should starta poll to see how many bits will be left over when it is back together :think1

It might only be one or two, but they'll be the ones in the very centre of the bike, under three layers of Tupperware.
And yes, Diesel, I knew you'd have the diagrams laid out, since you were the original publisher.
Has the cat been through the shed yet, knocking all the carefully placed fasteners off onto the floor?
Murphy rulez!

Due to the Diesel influence, I have again taken some bodywork off the ST11 in anticipation of doing some tidying up of the current separate wires all going up the front.. So the rough plan is:
Up the front area are/will be to powered:
HID hi/lo beams (existing OEM H4 plugs untouched so H4 bulbs can be put in if required if the parallel wired hi/lo HIDs fail inconveniently)
HID euro beam spotlights
heated grips using those heated panels under the grips
at least one power socket (already on the bike) but I may add another one right up the front
The wiring plan:
use a dirty big red wire to take main power from the battery towards the front
put 40amp inline fuse in said wire near the battery (I may only use a 30amp fuse in the end - it is just protection in case the wire shorts somewhere before the new fuse box)
put in a 40amp relay up the front to turn power in red wire on/off (I may end up using a 30amp relay, I just happen to have a 40amp relay sitting around)
use an exisitng switch to turn relay on/off
install fuse box after relay to which all devices up the front are connected
In all a couple of existing relays and inline fuses will all be integrated.
The aim: simpler wiring going up the front on the left hand side, less messy connections near the battery, ability to turn off power to the front devices off when the ignition switch is turned on but still retain ignition powered protection to stop the battery going flat if something is left on (mainly the grips as most times I can see the lights are on). HID spots still only come on when hi beam is engaged.
Just have to find a place to put the new fuse box. After going out and :think1 I will position it on the removable black plastic garnish under the headlight - just two allen key screws hold it on, so even easier to check fuses than removing the sidecover.
I will also be testing the current draw on the circuit using an old ammeter I had lying around. It will be interesting to see what the constant and peak power draws are for the HID heading and spotlights. I am hoping less that the guage of wire I am using :eek Of course I only remembered I had the ammeter after I removed all the existing relays and wiring, so I should have tested each light before removing and worked out what wiring and fuses I needed :||||
The other powered devices are less of an issue. The Zumo is powered on the right hand side along with the McCruise, and the wires from the Zumo have to go the the autocom in the rear anyway. The UHF is in the tail but needs to go directly to the battery to minimise the chance of interferance in the audio.
Stay tuned. If I go quite either the new bits have been delayed, or it does not work :'(

Can't let Diesel have all the fun...
Have just finished adding two 100w halogen canon to the FarWeapon.

Nah. They want and expect landing lights to be on. :p
In daytime they're happy just to see the regular OEMs
Tried them out on the street tonight. Very happy with the result. I can see way up the road on both sides.
They came with perspex stone covers, but they throw a lot of glare back at me. I'm experimenting with painting the rims of the covers, but if unsuccessful they will have to be on in the daytime only.
-
Biggles the trick for this is a bit of leccy/duct tape strapped around the edges mate. Helps keep them on, and stops the backlighting.
-
+1 on the tape. I used that on the Compacs to stop that annoying glare.

What's obvious to the tech-heads is a revelation to the uninitiated. So everyone does their bit here. :nahnah

My plans are in motion and about half way there. All the bits have arrived and are being fitted. An ignition powered wire has been found so just have to splice into it so that the HIDs and heated grips can be disabled with the ignition on. Doing things a bit more methodically takes time!
-
I hear ya Saaz - I'm sick of being out whoop whoop and having component or system failures and having to work around/do without the component for the remainder (sometimes 1,000's of kms) of the trip!
I'm doing it properly too. I'm taking pics along the way so I can add in to future threads/posts. John Meara did the same and did a fantastic job so that we could all see the PROPER way things should be done.
The end result is worth the extra effort 10 fold - compared to the "Oh No! Not NOW!!!" utterances out near Broken Hill, Oodnadatta, Meekathara, or Tennant Creek!
Good luck ol mate.
Cheers, Diesel

Tomorrow I will take some photos as I go along, and even the circuit diagram I have been working to. I don't have a link to it, but I picked up a fuseblock from a local auto electrician that has a single pole input, 4 outputs and LEDs to indicate whether a fuse is blown. For $25 far better construction that the $13 ones at the auto shops. Picture is a bit out of focus so will redo tomorrow.
Once I do a proper job on splicing into an ignition powered wire (it comes from the headlight circuit up to one of the headlight relays) all the rest should just fit together. The heated grips pads should just go on and work (famous last words!)
(http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r92/saaz58/DSCF1636.jpg)
-
Well, I ran out of the right connectors :|||| so should put it back together tomorrow.
but....
saw a few drops of coolant making their way back through the V under the carbs, so while the bodywork is off may as well pull the carbs and have a decent look. Just had a look at my records, and hoses etc were replaced 90,000kms ago at around 95,000kms. Seems like only the other day really...
Once you start doing one thing, they seem to add up for some reason... :think1
-
Taking the tank out is easier, and you can get to the hoses under the carbs.
:bl11
-
I have done both a few times, and with all the bodywork off I prefer to have a proper look under the carbs. Last time I had cracks in the allow elbows so I want to check them properly. It would be a pain if one of the replacements has a crack! Plus while I am at it I want to make sure all the wiring is reasonably tidy.
-
Ok, bike is back together. With all the lights on and the grips, still holds at 14 volts. Haven't had a chance to run the heated grips for long enough to find out the range of the settings, but on high they definitely put out some heat, but take a while to get there. The set I have also uses a rheostat with a relay to set the temperature.
The minor coolant leaked seemed to be due to one hose clamp needing tightening. It was not loose at all, so probably just the effects of a few years of use.
I will put together some photos for a separate report, with some light testing before the comparison test is done in the next few weeks. I am waiting on TerryB to fit up his HID spots, but with a spread and spot combination.

I've all ready upgraded the seat to a Saddlemen gel seat and I made up a goat skin seat cover to go over that. Comfy..lol
Now have a 10cm taller slightly tinted screen.
On the list are :
Shelf for dash (for hardwired Strike GPS and camera mount)
Police light mounting brackets so I can relocate driving lights
Cruise Control but throttle lock is ok until then
Battery charging wiring for battery in trailer.
Speakers for helmet as ear plugs are pain.
plus non OEM items
Progressive Rear Shock (next on to do list list after timing belt change)
Progressive front shocks (do them when fork seals need replacing again)
Considering a change of colour or at least a respray in original colour.
Upgraded exhaust system when original needs replacing
Added
Forgot mention that I all ready have towbar, trailer, rear rack and Rjays topcase.
Thanks to Tipsy, my dash shelf arrived today so I can cross that off the list and I'll fit that sometime in within the next few days.

Thanks to Tipsy, my dash shelf arrived today so I can cross that off the list and I'll fit that sometime in within the next few days.
The dash shelf has been fitted so my GPS has a new home. Only minor issue with the shelf in place is that with my height I'm not able to see the warning lights.
I've priced front progressive springs @ $169 (pair) plus oil @$25 at http://www.suspensionshop.org/index.php (http://www.suspensionshop.org/index.php) (northern suburbs of Adelaide) plus installation which hopefully I can do in Jan/Feb 2013.
The rear one will take a little longer to do at @ $730
-
Latest stuff for me are, mirror wings off an 1100, new style discrete pan badge for edge of screen, more frame and body protection panels, waterproof iPhone system inc external speaker, radio, mp3 etc. thinking about fitting an led fog lamp alongside the rear stop glimmers. My boss was rear ended the other week so might install top box spoiler and stop lamp too. GoproHD coming via Santa mail.
-
Replaced the original wedge type globes in the side "locator" lights with 7.5W LED lamps. Now the side lamps make my xenon blue headlamps look yellow rather than the other way around.
The bike has a higher degree of visibility from the front now without having to fit additional lamps to the front of the bike.

Streak,
I'm interested in the Police Light Brackets, How much did they set you back (all up, freight etc) and how long did it take for the parts to arrive? (I know you put a link up to the items parts list somewhere)
How much of the Tupperware did you have to take of for the wiring of the driving lights?

As for the lights, they are not wired in yet, I am mounting everything on the bike, as as I have phoned a friend who is good with wiring (as I am not) I will fill you in once he attended to wiring in the lights, Towbar, heated grips, and 12V plugs for me

How about adding on some detergent to remove those bugs on the front? :grin

Hi All,
If someone is chasing the Goldwing riders footpegs for their sted that ST2UP is talking about, then here is a place in Australia. They are around $116.00 a pair plus postage. I have seen them on ebay and other sites in the US and they are about the same price, except shipping will be cheaper and faster buying them here. Just a thought for those who are thinking of going down that way. I have just ordered a set.
Here is the link:

Streak, I found the worst part about fitting the Quartet Harness was replacing the tupperware, but the rest is eazy pezy!
If you're still able to purchase OEM Heated Grips, and I'm not sure if you can, then they connect direct to the Harness, I know the Oxford's are cheaper but the OEM control unit looks like original equipment, and they do work very well! :grin

Got one, works a treat and fits in two helmets side by side or one helmet with a jacket.
Mine cost a bit more than this one advertised but I didn't hunt for a cheaper price.
One of the blokes at Ballarat (Ben- and scooter) have the same on but Ben suffered a broken bracket at the front of the box, where it holds onto the base plate. Mine is still good after 4 years but I don't get out much.
-
Hi Hoffy, I have the exact same one which I fitted about 600km ago. I used the four hex bolts behind the seat and made some custom brackets to reinforce the topbox bottom plate as it was a bit stronger that way, I also have my UHF Aerial coming off the right side from one of the mounting brackets. They seem to tilt back on an angle (downwards) at the rear. I fixed that problem by cutting some curtain rod and used it as spacers under the back two bolts. This leveled the topbox up to a good position. Just be aware of your seat position. My first attempt of mounting it screwed up as I had it to far forward and I couldn't lift the rear of the seat up too get under it, whoops. Just a thought.
Cheers
Gibbo

The case Heather bought will replace a rather aged Rjays one which we bought in 2005 for our previous CX500. Three years after I bought the 1100 I decided to fit the case after finding an OEM rack for the bike. That was five years ago and the case hasn't been off the bike in that time.
I installed a LED brake light on top of the Rjays case but I have yet to decide whether to put it on the new case or not.

Well i have to say a massive thank you to STroppy and Saaz, I organised them to come and help/show me how to fit a number of items to my bike, and due to bad timing and also work, i could not be there to watch or help, so they spend the day pulling my bike apart and did an amazing job adding/wiring the below in for me:
although if anyone sees and advertising for ST Parts all of a sudden on EBAY, can you let me know!

I've just ordered a set of MCL Highway Pegs, to give me some more leg position options on the long hauls. :runyay
They were on the back-burner, but the finance director has approved the funds, so I ordered them before the decision was revoked.
I've also ordered some LED Brake/Tail light globes and Rear Indicator GLobes, which are a little brighter than standard, so that they will stand out better.

Don't keep us in suspense. I'm guessing a RusselDayLong Seat, but what else .... something that's innovative and unique that we haven't seen before.

Russell Day Long is 1 of 5 parts, the rest you will have to wait and see.....

:Stirpot Heaven (if it exists) forbid, not training wheels (side car). I haven't seen one of them here and it is different.

No one will ever hate it, they will just appreciate it differently........................................ :wht11

Highway Blades would be good.
Patrol light brackets and lights.
Not much else to be done otherwise.

Having just come into ownership of a 2004 ST1300A I need to add a few items.
Today I bought the 08A30-MCS-100 - WIRE HARNESS, ACCESSORY from Partzilla. Last one in stock so bought it. Cost about $AUD31 delivered
Not many items to do on this one.
08P73-KBV-800 - Protective Film for the top of the side cases - might get next.
12 volt power socket - OEM one is a bit pricey but it least it's plug and play.
Another TomTom Rider 450 mount - can use the GPS on both bikes then.
Misgel GPS mount http://www.migsel.com/store/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=49 (http://www.migsel.com/store/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=49)
17mm screw in ball mount (if one exists) to add my current phone mount to the Migsel
Cruise Control - hopefully from this years grain harvest.
Classic Towbar

Alan,
A tongue-in-cheek comment from me - the ST1300 is such a complete bike, it does not NEED any modifications or extras, it's just that you might WANT some.
Having said that, I WANTED some mods and / or extras and have added:
- Heated grips - why oh why didn't Honda put them on as OEM???
- A Russel Day Long saddle - front and rear, and both Mrs W and I are very happy.
- A GiPRO gear indicator - the revs were so low compared to previous CB1300, it was taking me a long time to adjust.
- Assorted RAM mounts to get the right combo of GPS and phone mounting positions.
- Pillion foot plates, instead of foot pegs - more comfortable and less tiring for the pillion.
- Extended screen.
- Tow hitch.
Re. the tow hitch - IMHO, due to two bad experiences with the Classic tow hitch on the CB1300, you can do much better than a Classic. My tow hitch, bought from another OzSTOC member (think is was JWM from Nowra way), was a USA made item, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, much, betterer than a Classic. If you are interested, I'll try a bit harder finding the manufacturer's name - so far 5 minutes on Google hasn't yielded any success.

Michael, where did you get your extended screen?

It's a NEED more than a want and why so few of them.

My thoughts exactly for the Cruise control and 12 volt socket.

Have a Classic bar on my 1100 and no issue with it. Could be awhile before I get to that one anyway

West Aussie Glen organised a bulk buy from the UK. No doubt he'll be along soon to provide some details.

OK, thanks

Bulk buy was from Bikequip when the original owner, Keith Munro was ill and basically not open for business.
It has now sold.

Just ordered a 12 volt DC socket and a couple of clips that go near the screen that are bit dodgy and a missing bolt from the front of the RH side panel. Once all that get here I can fit everything at the same time.

:dred11 Big Honda farkle #1 Ph holder with charging port , just trying to figure out where to fit it :thumb

To add a bit more to information about Heated Grips.
My Oxford HGs have done over 140,000 kays and have become sticky, which isn't a very nice feel. To defeat the sensation without replacing them, I bought some tennis racquet grip tapes and wrapped them on. They're not self-adhesive, and I put a dab of a very good universal glue on the end.
So far so good, but I haven't tried the heating aspect yet- it's just too hot!!
