Wow! An already powerful sounding machine suddenly sounds more powerful and the throttle response is improved.

Happy days.

AFAIK, the biggest ST1100 issue on your side of the pond is a rusted out swingarm from the stuff they put on your roads during the winter snow.

Aye. I had to do some welding on mine before painting with POR15. Treated inside also but I'll keep an eye on it.

Where are you located in Scotland?
I've ridden there a few times and love it - except when the midges are out!!!
My last time over I rode a bit south of you up HardKnott Pass on a rental ST1300 -

I'm south of Oban. Great place to ride but you're right, midges can be hellish here in the west.
