newbie from act
« on: August 20, 2013, 09:04:26 PM »
hi all
My name is Daryl (DAGS) Just got my first st 1100 blue with 25000km picked it up on Sunday in Wagga. Very nice ride back to Canberra. Have ridden bikes for a long time with gaps here and there.  Last bike was a 1982 honda vf 750s shaft drive.  Very happy with the st and look forward to going on some rides with other st riders.
