ST1300

[Lord Popgun]

Thanks Popgun, didn't know that. The one that I sat on the other day seemed fine. I find that I am good with heights up to about 32". How do they adjust ?

It's real easy, no tools required. First remove the passenger seat. You have to do that to get the seat off, then lift off the seat. Look by the bottom of the tank where the seat plugs into. Just pull that bracket out and move it into the slot you want. You will see it, it's easy. Then put the seats back on.

Mine is always in the low position. YMMV. The only time I ever have moved it is when lifting up the tank. It can be pivoted up for maintenance and there is a rod stored under the passenger seat that is for holding the tank up.

That feature was nice when I added the GiPro as the diagnostic connector is about as far aft as you can go on the right side and was pretty easy to get the wire back there with the tank up.

And I guess you know, this bike has 2 tanks. The pump is in the lower tank.

I am no expert on this machine, but is a cool bike. I strongly suggest you order a service manual for it.

And even though that one has the knee pads installed on the tank (mine aren't installed). Tankslapper has a kit for the ST. I put it on the tank and headlights. Some of it I didn't install on the fairing pieces. Maybe the next time I take them off.
