50,000 Miles

dank · 07-28-2013, 09:10 PM

Rolled over 50,000 miles on my ST1300 this weekend. Can't say it is more reliable than a Nomad, but certainly it is the equal of my Nomad. 50,000 miles with just routine maintenance: tires, oil, plugs, etc. Great bike, very well engineered. A+ for Honda.

The honda st is at the top of my list for my next bike. I once talked to a group of st riders in the smoky mountains of tennessee and they told me those v4 engines were good for an easy 250k.

Rolled over 100,000 miles on my 2006 Ultra Classic last month. Then I bought this 2007 Nomad to ease the mileage on the Harley. Planning on ridind the wheels off this one too! ST1300 is on my list as well.
