I sent him the question as to whether it includes the cut-out Honda covers that MCL supplies, since they're not mentioned and not evident in the rather poor photos.

You can buy the covers as a separate item from MCL.  Not very expensive.

Can you remove this thread, as I might just bid on these and don't want any competition.   :whistle

There maybe some stiff competition from Perth (not me I have mine) so maybe any other bidders should contact Pete and decide on an acceptable price instead of bidding against each other. Just don't tell the trade practices commission.

So go for it, guys!!   :wink1

They are for sale in the same suburb as this


http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/willagee/motorcycles/honda-st1300-abs-original-owner/1017519856


Just realised that if this is the same seller he would have found they will not fit his as they will not fit police spec bikes.

He declares it is NOT ex-Police.

It's a top bike from the description.
I didn't even know Honda made tank covers and bar risers.
Has cruise control and other farkles.  Well set-up in every way.

Yes it may not be an ex police bike but I think you will find it is an ST1300P. Bought in for the police but the police then cancelled their oders and they were sold new direct to the public. Hence the Honda bar rises. If you could see thje right hand handle bar it will probably have the police style swithches. Why else would he have h'way pegs and not have fitted them.

Thankfully, even though Larry died, the company is continuing to manufacture them.  I had to buy a replacement left peg when my bike fell on it (extended). The express postage was more than the part.

If you hadn't heard, it was sadly due to complications during his recovery from a crash on his beloved ST1300 that took him out.
