Newbie on board
« on: May 08, 2014, 10:51:01 AM »
Hi everybody,
 Got a silver 1990 ST1100A and my girlfriend and I just love it! Had it for about 5 years now, it has 75k on the clock and it is still in great nick and ultra reliable.
 Am also a speedway racer. Got my nickname for my uncanny knack for destroying sprintcar engines.
-Brian.

And a special hi to the thoughtful individual that left an OZSTOC card on my bike at Bowral on the weekend.
It was a delightful surprise!

Would love to ride, but me and Ferrari girl are firmly committed (bad word) to work.
We will definately make a ride so that we can meet some of you crazy characters.

Hi Brian, welcome aboard.

I must admit your 1990 1100A has me somewhat confused. Information I have on hand says the first A (ABS) model came out in 1992 which would make it an 1100AN but the first A model didn't make into Australia until 1995 which would be a 1100AS.

The only to be sure  is to check the model and year code under the seat. An A model will also have a red ABS warning light come on when you turn the key.
