Title: At last, I have an ST1300
Post by: Wombattle on December 05, 2013, 05:59:06 AM

Back in the 80's I had a silver ST1100 that my (now) wife and I spent many a happy kilometre on. I have been wanting to relive those memories on an ST1300 for a few years now but have been distracted riding around a bit on other things. Then I saw this low k 2009 model in pristine condition and just had to have it. Serendipity.

I look forward to getting some farkling advice and to catching up with you on one of your rides/meets. I also look forward to clocking up a few k's on this beautiful machine.

Edit: Location Newcastle NSW

Great to see you've finally got a bike that will do 500 kays between fuel stops.  That will test your Iron Butt.    :grin
