• All-new aluminum frame is 16.5 pounds lighter than the steel frame it replaces and features a massive steering head casting and triple-box-section spars. The V-4 engine serves as a tuned, stressed frame member. The solid engine-mounting system utilizes specially designed hangers and carefully matched mounting bolts to provide both excellent road feel and minimal engine vibration.
• New lightweight aluminum swing arm is 1.9 pounds lighter than the steel unit it replaces and is carefully matched to the frame to provide an ideal balance of rigidity and tuned flex for optimal handling.
• Rigid aluminum upper triple-clamp and a 45mm Honda Multi-Action System(tm) (HMAS(tm)) cartridge front fork provide excellent suspension control in a wide range of riding conditions.
• The ST1300's 310mm stainless steel floating front brake discs feature a lightweight seven-spoke inner rotor, saving a total of 4.7 pounds of unsprung weight over the previous model. The 316mm rear rotor saves another 10.5 ounces, further reducing unsprung weight.
• Three-spoke U-section cast aluminum 3.5-inch-wide rear wheel is nearly 9 ounces lighter than the previous design and sports a large, low-profile 170/60ZR-17 radial tire. The three-spoke 3.5-inch-wide front wheel is 2.6 pounds lighter and carries a 120/70ZR-18 radial tire.
• Linked Braking System(tm) (LBS(tm)) uses a second master cylinder and a proportional control valve (PCV) to couple the three-piston calipers of the dual-disc front and single-disc rear brakes for even better braking feel, while providing the peace of mind of an LBS system. Using the front brake lever activates the outer two pistons of the front calipers and the center piston of the rear caliper. Rear pedal engagement activates the two outer pistons of the rear brake caliper and the center pistons of the front calipers, and a delay valve slows initial front brake response to minimize front-end dive.
• ABS model combines with LBS for a wide range of braking and steering control. ABS features an electric-motor-driven modulator that gives quick, precise braking pressure adjustments and smooth ABS operation. The system incorporates an integrated ECU controller, self-diagnostics with an interactive ECU test function, and automatic protection against system failure.
• The rear suspension incorporates a single shock, which mounts directly on the swing arm. The shock offers 1.2 inches of spring preload adjustability.

• Full-coverage bodywork features an Aero-Ellipse form that incorporates striking parabolic lines to accentuate the look of speed as well as enhance stability at high speeds.
• New three-position rider's seat provides an adjustment range of 1.2 inches vertically and 1.0 inch horizontally. From the forward and lowest position, the seat can be moved up 0.6 inches and back approximately 0.5 inches to the middle position and again by the same amount to the highest rear position.
• A motor-driven adjustable windscreen on the ST1300 ABS offers 7.4 inches and 13 degrees of adjustability for greater wind protection and touring comfort. A thumb-operated pushbutton on the left handgrip operates the windscreen motor. An additional 2.3 inches of manual adjustment is possible by repositioning the windshield on the mounting brackets. (Standard version does not have motor-driven windscreen.)
• Newly designed lockable and detachable saddlebags hold 35 liters each (large enough for a full-face helmet). The saddlebags contain straps to limit bag opening to 90 degrees to better secure the contents. The straps are easily unbuckled when the bags are dismounted, permitting full access.
• Rugged, plastic-covered body-protector stays extend outward to protect the bodywork in case of a tip over.
• Dual-section fuel tank places 5.5 gallons of fuel in the conventional tank location with an additional 2.2 gallons located in a sub-tank located low in the chassis. This results in an increase in fuel capacity and an even weight distribution for fuel.
• An electric fuel pump operates inside the sub-tank, providing consistent fuel pressure for the PGM-FI system.
• Headlight features dual lenses with twin-filament H4 low/high beam bulbs and multi-reflectors.
• A convenient push button located on the left side of the fairing electrically adjusts the headlight height over a 2.5 degree range.
• Roomy cockpit and ergonomically designed dual-density seat offer true long-haul comfort.
• Attractive, lightweight two-piece aluminum handlebars.
• A locking left-side fairing pocket offers the carrying capacity of an automobile console; a weather-resistant vinyl flap covers the right-side pocket.
• Breakaway rear view mirrors minimize damage in the event of a tip over.
• Padded passenger grab rails.
• Convenient center stand assist-lever folds neatly away when not in use.
• Integrated front and rear turn signals.
• Integrated ignition switch/fork lock. A single ignition key operates all locks.
• Handlebar switches and controls use internationally approved ISO graphic symbols.
• Transferable three-year, unlimited-mileage limited warranty.
