Introducing Mr 2 you, and his new toy 2006 ST1300
« on: November 26, 2013, 10:00:58 PM »
Hi all,
 My name is Mark, i fall into the (way) over 40's club, Live in Perth Western Australia,   And have just purchased my first ST 1300.
I work up in the mines in the north of WA so ill be off and on the forum every now and then (2/1 roster)
I woke up a few weeks ago and thought it was time for another bike. ( its been well over 10 years since i sold my last one) so i cashed in my holidays and went out looking for an ST 1100, 2 hours later i pulled into my drive way with a shinny new toy, A ST 1300 ex WA police bike.
all i can say is i cant be happier with it so far ( only had a chance to put about 300 km on it so far)
well thats enough for now, look forward to meeting every one, maybe one day we will ride together
They say money cant buy happiness, but i say it can get you a damn good bike!

Thank all for the warm welcome
Bloodbikes, i got it yesterday from the Honda Shop in Midland, they said it was on consignment so not sure where it actually came from.

Thanks for the Email, something for me to do over Xmas as i have 5 weeks off :)

I work in Dampier, sub contracting to RIO. I'm part of a 400 man team that build and maintain their railway system. (FRS Construction)
