Title: New member from Wangi Wangi
Post by: markbevan on June 16, 2013, 04:22:42 PM: Hi there
Just saw article in Road Rider and checking out possible bikes on which my bride would be more comfortable. Currently on V Strom 650
Like the look of ST so will check them out further and see what happens.
No doubt part of that will be searching this site for information about the bikes
Thanks
Mark

Post by: saaz on June 16, 2013, 05:24:04 PM: Welcome mark. Wangi Wangi could be around Lake Macquarie (central NSW coast), unless it is in Switzerland or Indonesia. I am driving up through there on the way to Forster this Friday.

Used to live in Toronto meself, so I knew straight away where you live.
Welcome to the fray.
Now why haven't you got your ST yet? It's over 24 hours since you first posted.
There are bargains galore in bullet-proof ST1100s. Get saaz to drop in on his way through to show you its features.
And there are quite a few very well presented ST1300s around for very reasonable money. Don't worry about how far away they are. You'll love the ride home. Or one of us will ride it to you. :beer
