Hi, my name is Peter and I have recently joined your site. I do not have a ST yet but am looking for one at the moment, that is how I came about being on your site. I live on the Gold Coast so if anyone knows of a good ST 1100 for sale please inform me. I only recently sold my 1994 CBR1000F which was a sensational bike to buy a 2007 Triumph Bonneville. Unfortunately the Triumph is not the bike for me so it is for sale to be replaced with a ST. Sorry to rant but thanks for welcoming me to your site. Peter

Welcome Peter.  You should have asked- we could have warned you about Triumphs.   :eek

You should be able to pick up a fine specimen of the ST1100 reasonably easily.  Be sure to post pix when you do.
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

Welcome Peter,

There are a number of the members who have had both 1100 and 1300's.  You won' t be disappointed with either model.

Welcome Peter. Why not head to Murwillimbah on Sunday and meet up with those heading there for lunch in what we call an RTE. Ride To Eat.
You can check out the ST's and owners. You would be most welcome on your Bonny.
Cheers.
