Re: Replacement for the Honda ST1300 in 2014?
No kidding, I used to look where I parked...until I got the wing. I can't imagine trying to back up that F6B up much of a hill. I'm not sure how much they had to remove to get rid of reverse since it uses the starter motor. Doesn't it just turn it backwards while engaging the starter clutch?I get that. My comment was directed to those who think that the ST13 would be best improved by adding features like cruise control, ESA etc. My point was that a) that would add significant weight to an un-updated ST13 and b) that it was interesting that Honda decided that the market for the F6B didn't require those kinds of options.
I guess if the F6B spends its life sitting in a Starbucks parking lot, it wouldn't matter. Except when you forget and park it nose-in on a downhill slope... ;0
