[ST] New ST Owner



Yowser, what a great bike.  Boy am I glad I dumped that R1150RT and got the 
ST (BRG).  I have completed the initial 500 mile "running in" and am now 
waiting for my 500 mile service.  I have hard bags, tall shield, gen-mar bar 
risers and carbon pipe due any day.  The ST is much, much smoother than the 
RT, much quicker, much lighter and fits my 5'7" frame much better.  At some 
lower speeds, I do get a bit of a tingle in my hands, I attribute it to lower 
speed, more pressure on the bars, etc,  so what suggestions do the learned 
riders have?  "Go faster", may not always be possible. :-)   I believe I am 
spoiled by my "new" Bonneville, which, up to 70 mph, is the smoothest bike 
I've ever owned.  Well, if not smoother it is as smooth as my beloved K75S.  
Thanks in advance for any suggestions, and thanks in the past for your 
encouragement to make the switch.  It was a good move for me.
