Oh now your spoiled..theres no going back..looks like an '08. I have an '01 ST1100. Now your old bikes will be relegated to daytripping. The ST is a great LD machine...You should look into ST-Owners.com. A wealth of info and very helpful people there...It seems of late alot of XS members have gone or are considering going over to an ST....
I have to admit that i have been looking at a sport touring, but i don't know about leaving my XS at home. It may be the other way around, the sport touring is my short trip and around town bike. It is kind of like being a traitor to the XS1100 for me. Don't know if it will happen, but we will see.
I have to sell at least 2 of my XS's to help pay for it, but then I should have more time to work on the last 2.
It would be dangerous to get one, if you're worried about leaving your XS at home. The ST is very smooth, quiet and has a 250-300mile cruising range per tank.
On the down side, the footpegs are a little far back and, unless you add bar extensions, I have to lean forward a little. It also doesn't feel like you are moving, so it really needs cruise control!
Nice looking STeed there! As Madmax stated, good site, good info. Trust me, that ST13 WILL spoil you, and you'll never look back.........Let the farkles begin....... Have fun, ride safe, Brant.
81H Venturer1100 "The Bentley" (on steroids) 97 Yamaha YZ250(age reducer) 92 Honda ST1100 "Twisty"(touring rocket) Age is relative to the number of seconds counted 'airing' out an 85ft. table-top.
