Got hold of this

Well, its not normally my type of bike but to be honest it rides fantastically well. I didnt want to get off it :eek2 Lovely silky smooth lump, very comfortable. We bought it as a joint business venture but both of us are quite smitten :oops: I might just keep it :D Any one else ridden one?

I rode my mates ST1300 pan and I know what you mean. Great bikes to ride 300 miles in one go. There are wheelie vids on you tube too :eek2

I did a lot of miles on one of these when I was instructing. Smooth easy to ride and comfortable. Not as heavy as you think the wieght is all down low

Great Bike, a real mile muncher and a stonking engine.Sold mine last year after 20k miles bought for £4K sold for £3.3 after 4 trouble free years, best £700 I have ever spent on a bike.
Check swing arm as previous says and if ok drill a couple of 5mm holes in and get it undersealed apart from that they are bullet proof, better than a 1300ST
Check out northernpanriders.co.uk they have some usefull links to pan european advice and specialists.

Take it up to the Artic Circle, I did!

Cheers Phil
