Had one of the first gen street triples, one of the best bikes I have owned and the one that I most regret selling - enjoy it.

The currently active members of the stable - 2007 Honda ST 1300 - had since new .

Hi Bill - The ST 1300 is amazing . smooth, fast , powerful - 120 horses or thereabout - QUIET - and as nimble as a sport bike once rolling . V4 - shaft drive - It is a bit of a brute to move around manually but an absolute joy once it is moving . Honda has discontinued them - they can be found new here and there still but I believe the last ones were built in 2012 . Don't be tempted by a new one for the huge amount of money they ask .
Very good used ones can be had for 5k and less . Visit the ST Owners site - many members claim upwards of 200,000 trouble free miles .
I have been thinking lately of parting with my DCT Africa Twin but what to get...........
Those were great bikes other than he silly rotary rear shock. Doesn't someone make a monoshock conversion?Yikes, the bill increase came in the mail this morning for my lock up in NZ... $320 a month, I need to get the rest of my junk on a ship next year.
I have two of these over there.
Bought this one, rode it 25 kms home and pulled it to bits.
Wheeled it out of the garage, loaded a map via long serial cable out the window from a PC, rode it around the block.......... then geared up and did a 350 km loop with no problems, it never missed a beat in the next 54000 kms rain or shine until going into storage.

Is a Harley 1948 74ci Panhead. I went through everything to restore to original. I did lots of parkerizing on parts as original. Had a lot of friends from 70s that built choppers but kept all original hardware and gave me coffee cans full of nuts, bolts and washers. I cleaned and parkerized nuts and bolts making every one original. Paint is not original, but a color of a Lincoln we owned.Beach that is a nice looking bike ! .... sorry for my ignorance but on phone screen I can’t tell if it Harley or Indian , if Harley is it a 45 c.i. ..... thanks , also was it restored or is it a original barn find ....
