I ride a STX1300.

 

STX gives a very plush ride like riding a Mercedes Benz.

 

It is ideal for cruising up to 200kmh. The bike is surprisingly very agile and likes to corner. It has a sportbike-like revvy V4 that is very smooth at cruising rpm.

 

If I have one complaint, it is that I wished the windshield could be set to an even lower height, even at its lowest setting (I know it has a motorised adjustable windshield).

 

I solved the problem by having a specially custom-designed shield braces that lower the windshield by 5 cm. The improvement now is that in slow-traffic riding condition in Singapore, I get more breeze to cool me down; the bike feels even more sporty when cruising at legal 90kmh expressway speeds; it keeps my speed down when previously I would unconsciously ride to triple digit speeds. If I want to cut down the breeze, I could still raise the windshield and at the max height, windblast noise is totally cut off!

 

For STX owners, if you want the windshield lowering brace for a more sporty ride, you can PM me.
