All this talk of valve checks and hydraulics makes me pine for the Honda 650 Nighthawk. I really liked that bike and had a chance to get a 'steal' deal but passed. Regret it to this day.
ST1300 - what is typical mileage for when valves first need adjustment? I have 71,000 miles, and the 3 times I've had the valves checked, was told they were still within tolerance. What has your experience been?
Now that the ST is obsolete, qualified technicians are scarce.

Lyle,Thanks. I like the idea to have it on the laptop. Is there any other sheets like that to keep on fill.
