Think it was you I met today at Luddenham,
I'm terrible with names.
Just remembered you saying you and the other half were on your way home to Emerald.
Great looking STeed and even better value for what you got.
Safe travels and hope you get to catchup with other OzTOC members on your way home.

Have told him to flick STill Dreaming a message when he gets home  :thumb

And that would be the as new ST1100 I had a look at. If you want to compare a new ST11 to and aged one, it is the bike to look at.  Unfortunately I was away for the weekend, but will catch up with Kiwiroo at Biloela.

Good onya Noel - sounds like you've got everything sussed.

Love the 900Rs - they were a few furlongs ahead of anything else at the time of their release, and STill have the ability to make one's heart flutter!  Well done.

Hope you're enjoying your time on the forum. Thanks for the intro.

Cheers, Diesel

Diesel ,mate my gpz900r would be one of the most expensive in oz ,the original (brought in 86)cost me $7500,this one owes me over $13000,every thing is new or overhauled.I feel it would do it's top speed of 245kmph ,maybe a bit more as it's first oversize.regards Noel
