david, you sure you need a bike that big, have had both of the pans ie 1100 for about 2 years and a company st1300 for 9 months, both work bikes mainley in london and west country, big buggers in trafic and you get very hot from the heat of engine. have not seen any out here and would cost a fortune, how about a bmw, at least you can get a legal 1. just my thoughts and good luck,oh by the way my st1300 was set up for carying passengers and luggage, but preferd the 1100. marcus
