[QUOTE="rockmurf, post: 200769, member: 2124"] I had an 03 st1300 and got rid of it for the 06 fjr1300. First off abs is standard, 2nd when riding 2up I hated having my wife on the back of the st and she hated being there, we both like it when she is on the fjr. My st would get mistaken for a scooter too many times. The heat off the engine and honda's lack of response did it for me. I made a couple mod's on the fjr that would be worth doing, I installed the heli triple clamp which eliminated the buzz in the right handgrip. I also installed a power commander and what a difference. Also I put a russell daylong seat on it. So for a total of $14000 plus tax and title I now own one outstanding sport tourer. I also am going on 9500 miles on the original tires with tread to spare. The fjr is one awesome looking and performing motorcycle. I also usually ride with the bags off and just strap things to the luggage rack. The fjr also comes stock with a power outlet and 3rd lock for the trunk if you were to add it. Good luck in your descision, I don't regret mine one bit. Everett [/QUOTE]
