Went and did a hospital visit, she is getting a new timing belt and while they are at it new brake pads. Going to be next week before she is under my ass again.
What did you do with your ST1100/ST1300 today?

- Start date
This will be my 4th pair?... well, and a couple of extra rears in the mix. I guess I like them lol. I used to run the Avon Storms until Avon got political over them fitting the ST1300.
Well that’s all the endorsement I need…

Wired a couple of relays to the beaver box, next need to splice in the plug for the Admore LEDs in the topbox.
Picked her up from the garage after a new timing belt and brake pads. Low on fuel so we went to the next Aral. And filled up...
I have a company car and a UTA fuel card so I haven´t had to actually buy fuel for the last two, almost three months and apart from a theoretical knowledge of what is going on at the pump for most part price has been abstract.
I filled up for 52 Euros!
The guy in the shop must have seen my bloodless face because he asked me if I needed a minute of silence.
I was whining louder than a wonky differential on the ride to the A98 and you should have heard my cry of pain when I injected myself onto the Autobahn and opened the taps.

So $70.00 Canadian. Yes indeed, that would have got my attention and those around me as well.
That’s, dare I say, crazy!
What is this world coming to…
May the forks be with you.

Painted the ugly faded black plastic pn the saddlebags with a special plastic black spray can. Looks like new again! I'll do the lower shrouds next.
Why are the grey 03's with black wheels the best colour combo?

Finally got it out of storage and went for small 150klm ride. Felt really good. Met a guy at the dealer who just picked up a 2012 ST and will be joining the forum sometime.
Installed a new corbin seat. love it, it got my knees off of the fairing.
Any pics you could share??
