Wow, not sure what to say, but it is an ST forum. My last 2 bikes were Hondas(85 V65 Magna and 02 VTX1800C) both awesome and great bikes. After a Labor day weekend ride to the mountains with buddies on a VFR and Goldwing I got the fever for a new bike.(ST) I studied this forum, the FJR, BMW and Concours forums. Rode one of all them. But I was partial to the C14 since the first ad I saw in a bike mag back in July 07. One look and I had to have her. I finally traded my VTX for the C14ABS this past Friday. Due to work and a broken garage door torsion spring I only have 150 miles on her. But all I can say is WOW! It isn't perfect but what bike is! (I know the ST) I do miss the gobbs of low end torque of my VTX a lot, but it's extremely easy to ride, great suspension and handling IMHO. Will need risers, flatten and lower the seat a .5" and a better screen for colder weather but those are very common mods on most bikes, I think, I did all 3 to my VTX anyways. Sure you all do risers, seat mods and screens to your ST's. Will have to see how the heat is in the summer in the Carolina's. Here she is...T
