I overheard one Stormtrooper complaining that they ingest too many bugs and roadkill, and are prone to flameout?
He had a tank bag fitted to his?

Thanks but sort of got my heart set (I think) on an ex Police one. 
Can't happen now but working towards it.

My ST1100 is a nice white ex-police one . . I like them because they are definately much more visible on the road . . A nice white ST1300 would be the way to go . .

I went along to the last auctions of state government vehicles and there were two police bikes, still licensed, 2008.
I wasn't in a position to buy those but I'm watching for others.
They went for @ $4700 + buyer's premium.

Have to say that if I was to move from the 1100, an ex police 1300 would be the go.... rather like the ex FJRs too,, but stick with the brandname.. :wht11... :wht13?

The June Australian Motorcyclist is out, and there's a comparo of five touring bikes.
More proof that Honda has lost the plot- they only reviewed BMW, Ducati, Kawasaki, Triumph and Yamaha bikes.
Honda isn't even in the race!     :'(
