Renounce my ST1100?

[kiltman]

I’m not sure I’m ready to, however there may be a few of you willing to renounce their current bike.
Ryan has gone to the Dark side……of a different kind.

With three ST1300s in the garage, and too dang old to be out on dirt roads on a motorcycle, I'll stick to my , & soon to be !

My one ST is enough for me. I can easily resist the DesertX. But that was a fun video.

His videos somehow keep getting better

Great video. Very nice riding too.

What fits Ryan does not necessarily work for others. Remember he is 6'3"....

I rode dirt back in my late teens/early twenties. Had more than my share of nasty get offs out in the middle of nowhere. I'm 64, have a wife with terminal cancer and the onset of dementia, mostly short term memory right now, but the view from here is not one conducive to risking any more bodily injury than my ST affords... And even that makes me somewhat twitchy...
I'll stick with the ST.

In 22 years ain't found another bike yet to make me open my wallet. The 1100's rock.

When the 1100 first came out I was still working my last job (Which ironically turned out to be my last job) driving a 26 foot box truck. I pulled up next to one at a light and was smitten at first sight. As it turned out, the owner worked for my first delivery... Eventually she let me test ride hers. I was shopping for a 1300 when I had my OTJ accident that stopped me from riding for 10 years...

I took a ride on an NT1100 yesterday. Not a fan of that motor, kind of coarse and not as punchy as I expected. My VTR1000F had a much nicer (smoother, more responsive, faster) twin motor (but probably wouldn't make Euro I emissions regs let alone Euro V...).
