Honda ST 1300 Pan European
Sport-touring bikes have to do double-duty, and do both well. The Honda
ST1300 is proof that if you start out with the world’s ultimate touring bike
and the world’s best sportbikes, you can create something magical. One part
long-distance hauler, one part canyon-carving ace, ST1300 combines Gold
Wing-inspired luxury with CBR-derived performance. Its wind-tunnel-honed
bodywork and hard saddlebags perfectly complement a powerful V-4 engine,
shaft drive, a race-bred chassis, and ABS. The result? A bike that’s equally
at home swallowing up miles of blacktop as it is dicing through the
twistiest of alpine passes. And all without ever breaking a sweat.
Review
The Red Velvet Cupcake
Power is abundant, and the V4 revs quite quickly. The redline comes earlier
than you expect, especially because the motor is so smooth. You get an extra
500 rpm before the rev limiter gently kicks in at about 9000 rpm. A bit
soft, though nicely controllable, off idle, the V4 gains speed nicely,
causing much of the motorcycle's heft to disappear. Gear selection isn't
critical, unless you are pushing the sport end of the ST's equation.
