Gonna need a bigger bike
« on: May 01, 2015, 05:53:39 PM »
Morning all,
 I am graduating to my full license in about 4 weeks and a st1300 is now on my shopping list. Ideally looking for something post 2004 but open to ideas.

 If, by chance, someone has a well loved machine looking for a new home i would greatly appreciate a nod.

cheers
Troy

Definitely a smart guy, Troy.
And you've come to the right place to get smarter.
