Dave on the Gold Coast
« on: June 27, 2015, 09:50:54 AM »
Hello all I would just like to introduce myself. My name is David or Dave I answer to both I have just bought a 97 ST1100 after 10 or so years out of the saddle its nice to be back on two wheels. I live in southport and look forward to exploring what is on offer. I have had a few bikes in the past from a GT750 ,ZZR 1100 and a TL1000 now a bit older I like the idea of a nice touring bike that Sharon and I can enjoy. I look forward to meeting some new friends and just having fun on two wheels

Welcome Dave,

There should be a few near you (Near means within a 3 hr ride). If you have any questions about the bike, feel free to ask. However, before asking about tyres or oil, have a good look around the site as these topics arise often and cover the same ground again :popcorn

Welcome Dave. My last ride was a TLR. Will have to compare notes sometime. You won't regret the purchase of the ST. I have the 1300 and you can't wipe the smile off my face every time I am out on it. Catch you out and about sometime.
Enjoy the forum.
