Blue ones must be different then :popcorn
But more seriously, the ST13 is a bit more sporting than the ST11 (may be good or bad, depends on what you want), brakes are great, it seems a smaller bike to me but then most of these testers think a 180kg 1000cc sports bike is overweight.

... it seems a smaller bike to me...
It is indeed smaller - shorter, lighter, shorter wheelbase, different fork-rake angle as well, and lower C of G. All this was done to make it a 'sportier' tourer.

Dream on guys :butt
The Goldwing was just as good as the ST13 when I rode it back to back at the Snowy Ride.
When I wear the ST11 out I will see how many ST13s are still going (probably really cheap) :rofl

Wow!! Wings are that good? Confirms ORSM made the right choice.
You can't wear any ST out. Some might die of lack of maintenance.
But they're like the best axe I ever had. It's still going strong, after only 5 handles and 2 heads!! :butt

Says it all
the looks in the rear views from your friends – those are priceless

I noticed that the road test bike came from Carter motor sports in Coquitlam(Vancouver B.C) Ive visited that shop, and travelled the roads around that part of the world. Cant imagine a better place to give an ST a work out.
