Overview
The 2018 Honda ST 1300 ABS is a sport tourer from the ST family, produced from 2009 through 2018. Its 1,261 cm³ four-stroke V-four makes 126 hp (94 kW) and 125 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm; wet weight is 331 kg.
The 790 mm seat height gives the bike a relatively accessible saddle, while its 331 kg wet weight makes slow-speed maneuvering more demanding. A 29.1-liter tank and fuel consumption of 6.70 L/100 km give a calculated full-tank range of about 434 km. The rear shock’s five-position spring-preload adjustment lets you adapt the suspension to different loads.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Shaft final drive
The shaft drive eliminates the need to clean and adjust a chain.
ABS and linked braking
ABS and CBS are fitted at both ends, helping manage braking and reduce the risk of wheel lock.
Adjustable rear preload
Five preload settings let you tune the rear spring for the load being carried.
Things to consider
Heavy at walking pace
At 331 kg wet, the bike takes more effort to maneuver in tight spaces and at very low speeds.
Limited ground clearance
The 135 mm ground clearance leaves less room for tall obstacles and deep road dips.
Fuel use
Consumption of 6.70 L/100 km means the 29.1-liter tank’s calculated range is about 434 km.
