Honda St 1300 Colors ? year 2003

Hello again! This spring, I want to buy a ST 1300 year 2003. Can someone tell me pls the available original colors of 2003? This bike I want to buy is red and looks great in pictures, but I have not found anywhere on the internet if the red color is produced in 2003. I want to buy a bike with original paint not repainted. Thank you very much !

Here link with the bike I want to buy : http://www.bikeshop.ro/handler.php?tip=am&act=view&src=db&ID=483340&selpic=9&zoom=1#foto

Year 2003 has electric windshield ?

Hi,
This will be of some info, not sure how helpful.

The US ST's have a paint code sticker under the seat. If that is the same red they used in the US for 2005 models it will probably read R151CU.
In the US, the electric windshield was only 2003 models with ABS, but I do believe it was standard on Pan-European models.

It sure is a pretty bike.

2003 was silver. No other choices.

If it has ABS it will have a power windshield unless someone added the power windshield to a non ABS which was expensive so not often done

@Jeff: He's looking at a non-North-American model. Colors are different, and there were choices most years.

This lists the model year changes as I know them, including the colors: CLICKY

The red (more of a burgundy) on North American 2005s is not the same as the red on 2002-2003 models sold in other markets.

The bike in the link you posted is an ABS model (look for the pulser ring and sensor on the right side of the front wheel) and will have the electric windshield.

Thank you all for your quick answers !!!!

Important question I remembered, in 2003 on the front fender there was a sticker with dual CBS ?

I'm not positive, but I think they may have only done that on the 2002s.

argh missed the location. Sorry for the confusion.

FYI, I updated the long-standing ST1300 colors thread just a couple of weeks ago, based on my ROW Honda Parts Catalogue.

In addition to the (R275C) Candy Ambassador Red that was listed for 2002 UK bikes, I noted that:

2002 colours for England, France and European Direct Sales also included BG-125M (Amazona green metallic) and NH-478M (Tower silver metallic).
2003 colours for Canada and Australia were NH-478M (Tower silver metallic) and R-275C (Candy ambassador red) (note: no European 2003 models were produced).

According to the Parts Catalogue, there were no separate "2003" ROW ST1300s produced. The model year would be reflected in the VIN, so you really need to check that to know what model year the bike is--often this is not the same as the year first sold or the year first registered. If your VIN indicates a ROW 2003, then that would settle the issue, but I don't think that will be the case. (That bike is definitely a non-US model, given the HISS and the kmh speedo.)

Ciao,
