No it was a QLD bike before Nev gave it a new home.....It has an interesting AJ Plastics screen I haven't seen before, I almost confused it for a BikeQuip until I was closer.

Well bought!  Welcome to the exclusive club of Red ST Owners.     :rockon     

 :p  to the rest of youse....
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Thanks everyone
Been looking for some time but had to finish my Perth trip on the VFR first.
Rode to Adelaide and back week before Christmas and passed the spot where it died.
Felt I couldn't trust it for a long ride. So my son (Nathan ) has it now and loving it. ++
He is to do his first farride on it in three weeks.
See you on the road.
Capt Thunderbolt on my red colt. :dred11 :thumbs
