Title: Does anyone know this bike?
Post by: 2uprider on July 24, 2014, 12:55:02 PM
I'm buying this 2004 ST1300 from BikeBiz in Parramatta.  Apparently the owner/rider died and the widow sent it there on consignment.  It has 71000kms, appears to be in very good cond and has just about everything on it.  but they don't have the books or pieces for the comms unit.  I thought I saw one like this on our site but wasn't in the market at the time.  If you know the former owner I would appreciate the info or for you to make the enquiry for me.  I don't want to upset her if she's still fragile.  Looking forward to any news, thanks for reading this.  David.

Can't help you with the history but looks like a nice bike with MC Cruise Control as well as a lot of other extras. I would say it was well loved by the previous owner and as such after a little healing time has passed I would think the wife would like to know it has gone to a good home andf be happy to pass on its history.

There is a possibility that the bike belonged to a member know as Bluehonda, who passed away in Feb I think.

There are a few people who may have more info who can chip in. Diesel I think.

The bike looks awesome :thumbsup But it isn't Bluehonda's old bike...

He had the ST1100 whitch I think may still be for sale

Well thanks Glen for the thoughts, and Brock and Shiney for eliminating one possibility.  I am looking forward to getting it next weekend.

BlueHonda (Brad) had two STs: a blue 1100 as Shiney noted but he also had a 2007 Black 1300 that he and Karen rode to the Ebor overnighter last year.

BTW 2UpRider, congrats on your buy and welcome to the club -  how much did the 2004 ST1300 cost if you don't mind me asking? If you can find out where the bike was last registered someone might know something about it.
