ST1300 Shakedown Run

Saturday, April 14th, 2007

I needed to get some miles on the ST so I could do my first oil change, so I decided to ride down to Irmo, SC (near Columbia) to visit my dad for the day.   It’s about 250 miles each way, and we rode around town some while we were there also.  (My dad rides a Honda VTX.)

Very happy with the ST as a long distance bike so far.   I was fairly comfortable for the entire trip, however an upgraded seat and windscreen may be in my future to improve it even more.

(And as you may know, the top speed of the ST1300 is about 140mph, so the top speed on the GPS was a glitch. ;) )
