What did you do with your ST1100/ST1300 today?

Put a cheap helmet lock on the right side tip over bar. This puts it on the high side while on the sidestand, but being so low places it close to the muffler, so I may not leave it there.
Helmet extenders are cheap on Amazon, and work fine with the newer ratchet-style chinstrap on the Neo 2. I didn't think these would work without D-rings, but the only challenge is keeping up with the extender, and I've lost 2 already.
I first put this helmet lock on the GSA, and it fits the luggage rack a lot better, so now I just put the extender on my carabiner key ring.

Did some one say Helmet Locks on a ST1300?

Although I use a Tee extender.

I finished up my fork rebuild on my 2006 ST1300. I got the fluid measurement wrong the first time around. I measured with the spring and spacer in and the tube extended. I rolled the bike off the center stand and it was almost solid with no compression. Pulled it all back apart. Reworked the fluid measurement. It's better now.

I have a new filter for an oil change and I am going to replace the brake fluid. I am nursing a very sore knee from getting up and down on the garage floor so I may take my time.
