New ST1300 Colour Which We Won't Get

[Couch]

I'll go along with that........I can just flat foot both sides, but that little extra would be nice!

A slightly re-designed seat wouldn't go astray, perhaps slightly sculptured to make it 25mm lower for us wee folk!

Adjustable to that for the wee ones- or I'll have my chin on my knees!

I am not short but my legs are and I have to admit I really struggle sometimes to move the ST.

I went on a road trip with a bunch of hogs a couple of weeks ago and I soon earned the nick name of Dudley (Wild Hogs) with my parking antics.

Underway even at low speed is fine but as soon as I put my feet down I find it difficult.

I sat on an BMW R1200Rt with a low seat recently and it was much easier.

Hi all
If someone can find out the colour code or name, I can find out what colour it is, whats the formula is, and probably be able to reproduce it. It looks very much like a colour I nearly used on my bike a couple of years a go. Nearly, because at the time it was very,very expensive...

I think a new seat design would do wonders for the ST. I've just finished a 3400km trip around the alpine country and
even with an airhawk my backside was sore.

I'm currently looking into a used reduced height leather Corbin from the states, just asking a few questions about it at the moment, then if further interested I'll look at shipping cost, and think about if it's all worthwhile!

Just as long as if they bring more Sts in they brought some in white!

Go the Sargeant seat, especially if you take along a pillion

If I was looking to buy a new seat then I'd certainly look at the Sargeant seat, but I'm looking at a good "used' reduced height Corbin for $200 US plus shipping..........just waiting on a shipping cost now! Supposed to drop seat height by 1" and that would suit me just fine!!

Electrically/program on the move suspension adjustment would be nice too!

[Couch]

Nice but expensive STroppy!

I just posted the question to the OP on the phoenix site so lets see what happens

I looked at Honda UK earlier and found the name of the new 1300 Colour.

It's Ion Blue Metallic. I can't see Honda Japan bringing out a new colour if the model is out of production so it would have to be 2014 model.
