[ST] Ultra-low mileage STs...

[Gavin Lawrie <gavin.lawrie@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a saved search in eBay to send me info on new auctions with ST  
bits.  Today's update contained one for a 2003 ST. What caught my eye  
is that the bike (apparently) has only gone 1149 miles (see link  
below).  Would appear that owner (who has done 850 miles on it)  
thought it couldn't handle the long distance stuff, as appears to  
have replaced it with a Pan European...

Why do people buy an ST and not ride it?  Who are these people?  What  
can you tell about a bike after 850 miles?  If you work on basis that  
he might have done a couple of long-ish trips (say 200 miles?) to try  
out bike when it was 'new' he has probably only had to fill tank five  
times... Weird.

Same ebay email had details of this ST05 - ridden 1200 miles...
