I do ride an ST on 'special' occassions....
« on: June 19, 2014, 07:34:41 PM »
Well whilst my everyday rides are not of the ST - able I have been known to ride an ST1300 on special occassions...... like the 2014 OZSTOC National Rally at Balls-A-Rat earlier this year....


And the first time I rode one was in September 2013, for a VERY special occassion......


And I will be spending a few weeks on one in the USA during the month of August  :like
One day you will wake up and there won't be anymore time to do the things you've always wanted so do them NOW!!!
Remember there are 7 days in a week and Someday isn't one of them!

Whoa, fearless Leader!!  STs do not dwell on the dark side.

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

Nice effort Brookster.   :hatwave

"Darkside" might be OK for an ST going from Adelaide to Darwin where there are no bends, but other than that, Darkside is not Myside.
