It was a function of working for a living and a single driveway. The working part has been solved and the single driveway is having a major redesign based on straight through bike access to shelter rather than moving one or two cars. Also working on raising the less than 2,500 kms per year average on the ST since new.

Phew! Thought we'd have to have and emergency intervention and therapeutical RTE there for a minute! (Coz there was rumours of you riding Route 66 on a VVVVVVVVVV Victory some time ago!)      :crackup

Sorry Gforce...   :hijacked over!

Well, what can I say?

The Bananabenders are not only resorting to importing bikes in their effort to wrestle the World Title from us in the West but they're also starting up an ST SKIRTwearing photo competition.

I don't know about the rest of us Sandgropers but I for one feel that they will be welcome to that title.

I think The New South Welshmen might have something to say about that since most of the nations queens live in Sydney.......

Hi all, I have just joined your site. My red 2008 Honda ST1300 is due for delivery next week, got a great buy dollar wise and only 10,000 kms, but have to ship it from Tasmania to Brisbane. My previous bike is a 1990 CBR1000F that I have owned since new.
My general question is about the ST, I am having it delivered to a Honda dealer who will take care of rego change over and service etc, is there anything else I should be aware of regarding this bike? Should I replace the battery? and also any good modifications that are worth the money?
Thanks. :rd13

Good Choice of bike. You wont regret it, although them red ones are as common as muck.  :nahnah Still, long as you are happy its all good. I know, I know off to the naughty conrner for me  :spank
Cheers

Sorry Gforce I will continue the hi jack for one more post.
Diesel,
It was just a rumour, the guy bellow in a yellow jacket standing behind a Victory isn't really me.
