Overview
The Honda ST 1300 Pan European is a touring motorcycle from the ST family, produced from 2003 through 2018. The 2018 model uses a 1261 cm³ four-stroke V-four making 126 hp (94 kW) and 125 Nm of torque at 6000 rpm; it weighs 329 kg wet and 283 kg dry.
Its 778 mm seat is 12 mm lower than the 2017 model’s, bringing the rider closer to the ground when stopped.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Shaft final drive
With no chain to clean or adjust, the shaft drive reduces routine drivetrain maintenance.
Adjustable rear preload
The five-position spring-preload adjustment lets you set the rear suspension for different loads.
Combined braking
CBS links braking across the front and rear wheels, helping coordinate braking input.
Things to consider
Substantial wet weight
At 329 kg wet, the bike takes more effort to maneuver at walking speed and when parking.
Fuel use
Consumption of 6.7 liters/100 km means fuel stops remain part of longer rides despite the 29-liter tank.

How to measure
Stand barefoot with your back to a wall. Hold a book firmly between your legs, then measure from the floor to the top edge of the book.
Estimated ground reach
Both feet likely flat
You should have a stable stance at a stop, although seat width and suspension setup still matter.
