For the money, a very good buy. You may get the colour up with a cut and polish, the seat can be redone by a motor trimmer. It would still be a good buy even if it took a 1000 to bring up to speed.

Oh, the colour won't buff-up with a cut & polish, it's really, really bad. So bad, if I leave that as it is, I don't think anyone is wanting to pinch it - it already looks like it's been stolen and then dumped.
The seat, well I have an OEM in very good nick sitting in box in the garage (after I put a Russell Day Long on) the other ST1300.
I'm expecting approx. $1500 of on-road costs.

I was thinking of putting in a bid for the white ST1100, and hack it for a sidecar, but that might devalue the sidecar. BTW, that's one of my thoughts for the old ST1300.

You've done extremely well! It's call a "Christmas Tree". Every time you need a present of a panel, mirror, rim etc, it's right there. :grin

Noooooo!!!!!!
Unless there's an immediate need for bits 'n' pieces before I can get it sorted. My plans for this ST involve (generally in this priority):
- Get it road worthy and registered.
- Ride it a few times, get a feel for it, see if I want to keep.
- Look at sidecar options.
- Sell it, hope I don't loose too much $$, break-even, or perhaps make a few $$.
