Honda ST1100A description

I have owned this motorcycle for 16 years. It is in exceptional condition. There are some very minor scratches on the tank from a tank bag (pictured as best I could), but the bike otherwise has no cosmetic flaws. No mechanical issues. Always garage kept. It has been maintained with religious fervor, with most service records available from one of the most respected Honda dealerships in the Midwest. I did the oil changes myself, always with Honda factory oil and Honda filters. Less than 500 miles ago, I had a complete maintenance done, with all new fluids, filters, valve inspection/adjustment plus a new battery and new tires. This was in preparation for a 5,000 mile tour that was never done--the bike is completely plug-and-play, ready to circumnavigate the United States and beyond.

The bike has anti-lock brakes, traction control and adjustable suspension. It has a Throttlemeister throttle lock and heated grips, although the throttle side heated grip no longer heats. It comes with both factory and Corbin seat. Some of the stitching on the Corbin is coming loose, but it should be good for a season or two before recovering is needed. It also comes with a 50-liter (aka huge) top case by Givi, with a rack on the top case. The bike has sufficient cargo space, and power, for two-up touring. The V4 motor is bullet proof and properly considered one of the finest power plants ever produced by Honda.

The ST1100 is a top-notch sport touring bike that has received accolades from none other than Sonny Barger, a founding member of the Hells Angels. In his 2000 autobiography, Barger singled out the ST1100 and bemoaned the fact that he couldn't ride one because Angels must ride Harleys:

"If I could, I would seriously consider riding a Honda ST1100 or a BMW. We really missed the boat by not switching over to the Japanese models when they began building bigger bikes. I'll usually say "(Expletive) Harley-Davidson. You can buy an ST1100 and the (expletive) will do 110 miles per hour right from the factory all day long." -- Hell's Angel, The Life and Times of Sonny Barger and the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club

Would prefer local pickup but am willing to work with buyers on shipping.

What’s the deal with all those Pink Motorcycles?

Tue, 07 Jul 2009

Picture a Motorcycle in your mind, any Motorcycle. It could be one you own, want to own, one you’ve seen. Can you picture it?  What Brand is it?  What Model, year, how fast does it go?  You can probably picture each of these elements vividly.

Glen Richards back with Embassy Racing

Wed, 27 Oct 2010

One of the unsung heroes of the BSB paddock over the past few seasons, has to be 2010 Superstock 1000 runner up Glen Richards. A nasty tumble in at the Brands Hatch opener lead to four DNFs, but once back on track he pushed the dominant BMWs hard, finishing on the podium eight times. While many were trading their grannies to fund new S1000RRs, Richards kept the faith and rode the wheels off his Padgett’s Honda Fireblade.

"Dangerous" assistant

Thu, 07 Apr 2016

Honda has patented its development in the field of interactive technologies that prevent accidents, following BMW. The Japanese proposed a warning system about the danger that lies in wait for the driver in the blind zone. Honda engineers have proposed equipping the motorcycle with cameras and radars that will detect dangerous proximity to another vehicle or pedestrian and warn the driver through light indication or tactile feedback.
