I've just bought a beautiful one-owner 2009 ST1300 from a dealer, it's ready for collection but I'm a little apprehensive, especially after I felt how top-heavy it was in the showroom. I've always liked the ST1300 and when this one came up I didn't want to pass it over, at least not while I can still get a leg over. My last heavy bike was a Gold Wing GL1100 Interstate in '91. I used to throw the Gold Wing around like a 50cc, but I was also 30 years younger and a little reckless. I didn't ride between 1994 and 2014, and since being back in the saddle I've ridden my PCX150 and spent a few months on an Aprilia Pegaso 650.
Am I being unnecessarily anxious? The last thing I want is to drop it at the dealer, or at home in full view of the neighbours!
