Hi there, I just got my hands on a used but well-cared for ST1100.  I'm from Melbourne VIC.

Looking forward to being part of this community.

Cheers

Thank you kindly guys and girls.  I actually have a few technical questions but thought it poor form to ask them straight away as a new member.  I'll try to upload a few images when I get time.  It's immaculate, and a credit to the previous owner.

Good to see another Red ST going to a good home.   
I mean, a garage that tidy must be a good home.  Pity help anything in my shed- it's survival of the thing on top...
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

OK, here are some photos of the scooter.

I was actually searching for a 90s sportbike to relive a misspent youth - either a 1996 ZX7R or a 1996 GSXR750 (very specific!).  The search was futile.  The only ones available were either victims of serial abuse, or priced into the stratosphere by hopeful sellers.  This ST1100 fell on my lap at the right time and right price.

37000km.  That is not a typo.

Happy puppy here :)
