Is it fate
« on: February 09, 2014, 04:14:39 PM »
Since selling the 11 have been looking at 13's advertised all over the place then up pops one on Gumtree in Canberra so bought it today a nice 05 in red just run in at 27K
Special thanks to Biggles and Tj who for the offer to inspect a bike up north

Glad you found one near home.  Sounds like a great buy!  AND it's red!
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

Good buy!  If you need any help with working on the ST1300 let us know, as a few in Canberra have them, and I have done some work on them. I have a valve shim kit if you want to check them, but unlikely at that distance to need anything other than oil and filter changes every now and again.

Since selling the 11 have been looking at 13's advertised all over the place then up pops one on Gumtree in Canberra so bought it today a nice 05 in red just run in at 27K
Special thanks to Biggles and Tj who for the offer to inspect a bike up north
