Hi from East Maitland
« on: July 26, 2017, 08:45:35 PM »
Hi guys just joined up last night,,,,,,,finally.
I've had a 93 model ST1100 for about 8 or 9 years and loved it heaps. My first bike was a CB 750/4 when I was 17 years old before heading down the Harley road for a while. I always liked the style of the ST and knew one day I'd get one.
I was so happy with that bike, every time I rode it I couldnt get over how such an old bike could do everything so well. It always made me wonder what a new one would be like,,,,,,,, so i finally decided to upgrade and earlier this year I scored  very nice 2011 model 1300 that was first registered in 2013 with just 17k on the clock. And wow, how happy am I. Anway, thought I'd join up and say g'day

Welcome Kozzy and enjoy both the bike and the wonderful people here.

Check out the RTE (ride to eat) Map for some RTE where you can stretch the STs legs.
