Looking to buy ST1300 in WA
« on: March 30, 2021, 04:55:57 PM »
Just wondering if anyone has or knows of any ST1300 for sale in WA.
A mate took mine out on the weekend for a ride (Before it broke down) and fell in love with it. He wants to buy mine, but sadley it may never run again.
I may (or may not have) killed the alternator when i jump started it a few weeks ago.  $1000 for new alternator and prob the same if not more for labour to replace it. Mine is not realy worth much more than $4500 when running (Ex Police bike with battle scars).

SOOOO im looking for another one for him.

Thx
Mr2u

I know of a very good police version but never commissioned as police. It was owned by tricky mick and is up for sale soon.

Thanks for the info, but i think a WA place would be more convenient. Ill look around as soon as i COMPLETELY pull apart my bike. I think they built the motor around the alternator.  Its worse than an air filter change on a GL1800, and thats a pain.

I think Wombat has a spare alternator on the self. I have one in the bike I am parting out, think it must be close to being exposed.

There's a thread in here about extracting it from the rear without needing to remove the engine.
