Hi guys
Thanks for letting my join you guys
I’ve just bought a 2012 ST1300 only covered 7000 klm , I have just retired from work (66)
Spent 25 years working as a driving examiner for  DoT.... thought it was now my time to
Treat myself.... hence the 1300
will be asking for some advice I am sure in the very near future
Cheers
Bulldog

Lucky you! Only 7000 kays in 8 years!  :eek  If it's been garaged there should be no corrosion.  Hopefully the annual oil changes were kept up, and the tyres have been replaced.  If they're original tyres I wouldn't trust their grip- they would have gone hard in that time without having worn out.

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
