Friends,

My local bike shop is putting me off to get a Honda Pan 1300ST. They reckon, for a new touring rider, the Honda nt 700v Deuville, would be a better choice. Used prices seem to be around the same. Any further thoughts, or should I stick to my guns?

Thanks for the replies. I went and sat on a Pan 1300 ST, and yes it's a big bike but I really want one. I think it looks great and will be more than suitable for my requirements. You never know, might see you on the road this summer! Ride safe

Hi all, 

Looking for the fastest way to get back in to biking. I'm middle aged with a full UK car driving licence, and driving for over 30 years. I don't want to start on a 125cc bike, because I want to do touring, so I'm looking to get a much bigger bike, which can comfortably handle that. Thanks. 

Hello all, newbie to this Forum. I'm looking to get back in to biking after 25 yrs, and I love the look of the Honda ST 1300. I want the bike for 2 up touring with my partner. But I'm a bit worried the bike may be too much to handle. I'm also on the shorter side, 5ft 7". Any advice would be appreciated.
