Honda ST1100A description
I have owned this motorcycle for 16 years. It is in exceptional condition. There are some very minor scratches on the tank from a tank bag (pictured as best I could), but the bike otherwise has no cosmetic flaws. No mechanical issues. Always garage kept. It has been maintained with religious fervor, with most service records available from one of the most respected Honda dealerships in the Midwest. I did the oil changes myself, always with Honda factory oil and Honda filters. Less than 500 miles ago, I had a complete maintenance done, with all new fluids, filters, valve inspection/adjustment plus a new battery and new tires. This was in preparation for a 5,000 mile tour that was never done--the bike is completely plug-and-play, ready to circumnavigate the United States and beyond. The bike has anti-lock brakes, traction control and adjustable suspension. It has a Throttlemeister throttle lock and heated grips, although the throttle side heated grip no longer heats. It comes with both factory and Corbin seat. Some of the stitching on the Corbin is coming loose, but it should be good for a season or two before recovering is needed. It also comes with a 50-liter (aka huge) top case by Givi, with a rack on the top case. The bike has sufficient cargo space, and power, for two-up touring. The V4 motor is bullet proof and properly considered one of the finest power plants ever produced by Honda. The ST1100 is a top-notch sport touring bike that has received accolades from none other than Sonny Barger, a founding member of the Hells Angels. In his 2000 autobiography, Barger singled out the ST1100 and bemoaned the fact that he couldn't ride one because Angels must ride Harleys: "If I could, I would seriously consider riding a Honda ST1100 or a BMW. We really missed the boat by not switching over to the Japanese models when they began building bigger bikes. I'll usually say "(Expletive) Harley-Davidson. You can buy an ST1100 and the (expletive) will do 110 miles per hour right from the factory all day long." -- Hell's Angel, The Life and Times of Sonny Barger and the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club Would prefer local pickup but am willing to work with buyers on shipping. |

New kit: Davida Jet helmet
Mon, 21 Jan 2013The Davida Jet helmet is a quality piece of kit, made here in dear Old Blighty. I got my hands on one just a few days before I went on the CB1100 launch last week and I thought it suited Honda's big retro perfectly. The lining and finish is superb, with high gloss paint and a padded/quilted leather interior.
A Lap of the Isle of Man TT Mountain Course with John McGuinness – Video
Tue, 26 Jun 2012The Isle of Man TT is a very special event. Once the most prestigious motorcycle event in the world, the TT requires a certain type of character to ride superbikes at an average speed of over 130 mph through the quaint villages and over the rolling hills of the 37.73-mile Mountain Course. But don’t take my word for it, take the word of 19-time TT winner John McGuinness.
