As you say, it really doesn't matter where the bike is. A big ride home (and a ferry trip)would be great.

There are new ones popping up all the time on those two sites.
Even some of the dealer ones are well priced with attractive features.
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

It has taken a few weeks but I am now officially an ST1300 owner. I picked up a 2009 model from Tassie on the weekend. It has 25,000 kilometres on the clock and is probably the cleanest bike that I have ever seen. I am looking forward to catching up with other members on future OzSTOC rides.

Ah yes, it was a Taswegian.  The first farkle the southerners put on, as was the case with my Victorian clone of Knave's sweet Candy Glory Red.

You've done everyone a favour Knave- pulled a red ST13 out of cold storage by bringing it north, helping out the Tas economy with your hard-earned, and yourself, getting a top bike in immaculate nick.

Nice, welcome to the club.  25,000 isn't even worn in yet, put 20,000 on mine in last year and at at 33,000 km it is starting to finally loosen up
