That ST1300 had over 100,000 miles on it...and no cruise control!!  That's a lot of throttle twisting. 

[ridingron]

Yes.

The Honda ST1100 and the follow-up newer ST1300 were designed for Sport Touring. Smooth riding for Touring and Sporty handling for the hills and curves.

Nope.  Left town for work on Sunday and wife had plans for me Saturday after lunch.   This working is cramping my style!  lol.

Motormike:  I changed oil, transmission fluid and rear end fluid on the V85TT Adventure today.  Who in the heck designed the placement/location of the transmission drain bolt?  Geeezzzzz

The job can be done but yes you're right. The bike probably needs to be stone cold when putting the plug back in place. Unless you dropped the exhaust.

If you change the pipes out, it becomes 1000% easier! Hardly justifies the expense, but .... .
