Looks like you're wedded to 1100cc bikes.  Good choice with the two Hondas. 
Welcome to the Forum.  Be sure to read all the ST1100 advice.
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

Hiya Bill, you have landed in the right place for tips, info, and heaps of mateship.
See you on the road sometime, keep an eye out for RTE's (Ride To Eat) and some overnight stays to meet some of the crew.
