Hey guys and gals, i"m new in town and thought i'd say Hi.
I just bought a 2007 st1300 with 101,000 kms and am in the process of learning. First thing even before riding it is to strip her down and see what she looks like under all that plastic. I already know that i am installing handlebar risers, new tires, a new kill switch, brake fluid flush, coolant change, exhaust wrap on pipes and possibly a fork brace. Not sure on the necessity of the fork brace ( Super Brace). I do have some gravel roads and may help in the wind. How are these bikes in a cross wind? I also own a v-strom dl650 and it was terrible in wind until i installed a fork brace. Any body have any input on this?
