Title: Hello All
Post by: Ian Coxall on June 16, 2013, 02:20:27 PM
Hi to all,
I have just purchased a 06 ST1300 PA privately and look forward to meeting other enthusiasts (if I am allowed to call myself one yet). I had a VFR 800 before I sold it one day bought an off road bike and regretted it. I have now bought this machine and look forward to lots of rides.
I Live in Bedfordale in the hills work at the airport and look forward to riding to work again.
I don't know lots about the bike yet but eager to learn. I have read many forums about the instability of the ST but after riding this one I think it's a furffy.
Thanks for having me on board and I look forward to what the club has to offer.
Ian Coxall

Let me be the first to say "welcome".

If you PM "Poppy Dave" I believe has the same model as yours.

Enjoy your time here.

Cheers
Dave

Welcome Ian. The VFR is a nice bike, and the ST13 is like its big brother so you will have a great time as it can do nearly as much as the VFR but a whole lot more.

G'day Ian, welcome to the forum :hatwave

As far as the "instability of the ST" it appears to only effect a very small amount of ST's and only at very high speed i.e. 160 kph or higher :eek
