Hi everyone,
Collin here. We've decided to get me a bike to help reduce some household costs and get our finances sorted to get a house.
I fell in love with my mates Revere years ago and have always said when I got my next bike it would be a shaft-drive. Haven't had a bike for 20 years, but always wanted to get another.
I have my open bike 'R' license, but haven't ridden anything this big. I'm a reasonable sized lad at 6'3" and about 120kg so I want something reasonably capable for my commute (40ks down Tonkin/Roe hwy) with some luggage capacity, and so I've decided an ABS model ST1300 fits the bill.
So I've joined up to soak up some smarts from a community of owners and maybe find the bike for me.
Especially interested in info like routine maintenance, which bits I can do myself etc. Is 98 RON NEEDED, would 95 RON be ok.
Noticed a few Police specials available around WA. After speaking with Dale Britton Honda, not sure if I want to go that route. I'm willing to have my mind changed though.
Like anyone, I want a decent bike for low budget. 🤣
Anyway, see you all in the forums.
