Title: Hello all
Post by: Ajay on January 24, 2021, 06:23:12 AM
Hi everyone, I’m in Geelong Vic an looking forward to being part of this community. Tomorrow I’m off to just north of Sydney with my daughter to collect my 1996 ST1100A then I’ll ride home & she’ll continue to a new job on the Sunshine Coast. I’m planning to explore the high country on my journey and really looking forward to it.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210123/b9c4e15d77d780aaee106e1a7b27ba7c.jpg)

Hi Ajay and another welcome from Adelaide  :hatwave   You will find OzSTOC to be a goldmine of information and advice, and perhaps we will meet once we can travel freely again.  :thumbsup

Welcome to OzSTOC Ajay, looking forward to a catch-up soon and seeing your ST1100 included in a group pic of VIC (and other states) ST1100's and ST1300's.

Next opportunity is at the RTE at the Bullant Brewery Bruthen VIC - Saturday 13 February 2021.  Details here:

Plenty to choose from (menu might change by February)

Plenty to drink.

This will be an overnighter for some.  Book your own accommodation at the Bruthern Inn Hotel (cheap basic rooms, shared facilities - men & ladies separate) or at the Camp Ground (walking distance to the Bullant and the pub, lush green grassy sites, powered & unpowered, clean facilities). 

There is also some B&B's within 10km or 15km, or so.

Whatever your choice, this is a book your own affair.

Attending so far ...
  • Helen & Michael - booked a pub room
  • Nigel - booked a pub room
  • Tim - not staying overnight
  • Vera & Jonathon - Down to Earth, Sarsfield - long, long walk from the pub.
  • Sue & Bob - booked a pub room
  • Debbie & Rex - at the caravan park camp ground 
  • Garry - not staying overnight
  • Russell - not staying overnight


Or at Mudgee a month later.  Details here: http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=14341.msg1283899;boardseen#new (http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=14341.msg1283899;boardseen#new)

Thanks all....feeling the love already . This is my other big girl that I’ve owned for about 6 years. I wanted the option of a younger slimmer model (don’t we all ). (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210123/406229e8bceb47383994d5857e5ff09e.jpg)

Hi Ajay, welcome from sunny Brisbane. I hope you enjoy your new lightweight STeed.

What year is your Wing? It looks like a four cylinder, which would make it a VERY well cared for classic.

Hi Steve. She’s a 1981 GL 1100 Interstate (4 cyl) and is in remarkable original condition for its age. It was imported from the US and has the original owners details in its books. It’s not something I’m ever likely to part with but in the same breath I know from personal experience that one doesn’t know what’s waiting for them around the corner.

Seconding the welcome everyone is giving.   :hatwave

Love your Goldie.  The way she looks, the care and all the enhancements means a new lease on life is coming for your new ST.
Have a good and safe ride home.

That’s amazing.  I love the comstars. My beloved CB400NB had gold comstars, and my CX500 had black and silver comstars like yours. That is one beautifully preserved classic - a real collector’s item. Even better is the fact that it doesn’t just sit idle in some collection.

Truth be told I have a CX500B Shadow as well which is nearing restoration. I’m a huge fan of the comstars too, I think it’s what attracted me to that era of Honda’s.

Welcome from Perth. It is good to see another GL owner join, there are a few of us here. Hope you enjoy the ride home. When you get a chance add Gelong to your profile. It is amazing how often one looks at a members profile to find what area they are from.

Probably should check mine, it no doubt says Thailand, and I have no idea when I can get back.
