Honda ST1100ABS

2002 - 2005

The Honda ST1100 ABS TCS is a legend like the Pacific Coast. It has been consistently recognized as the best sports tourer in the world on two wheels. I bought a used 1997 ST1100 ABS/TCS in October 2002 for the specific reason of riding the Iron Butt Rally in 2003. It performed flawlessly then and during everyone of the 20,000 miles I put on it for the next three years. Following the natural evolution of Honda Pacific Coast to ST100, I sold it in Nov 2005. This bike is simple the standard in sport touring and long distance riding!

ST1100 Farkels

As I mentioned, the previous owner of this bike had done some magnificent work on the bike already. below are the farkels that came with the bike and the ones I have added so far...

Already installed farkels:

- Throttle Meister throttle lock

- AF/FM Cassette radio with external speakers

I have added: (Oct 02 to Jun 03)

Rick Mayer Saddle for Long Distance Riding!

- Kissan Headlight modulator

Here the daylight sensor is pictured... little round photo cell ... would not leave home without it - Safety!

H-4 Headlight Adaptors - allows use of any H-4 bulb - upgraded to 55W/60W

- PIAA 910 driving lights - Notice the already run power wiring harness for shelf accessories yet to come...

- Two electrical outlets for heated clothing and the a large waterproof switch for the PIAAs. The smaller is for the radio.

Mark Reis Accessory Shelf .... I can see the idiot lights fine at 6'2"

- Fuse block to power all accessories - in the tail section - easy to get to; designed by another STOCer a few years ago

Another STOCer found that you can get "secret switched power" from behind your fuse block here by pushing in a "male" spade connection. The 2nd picture shows the relay I installed to insure my fuse block is only hot when the ignition is turned on. The relay is wrapped in black tape and zip tied securely above the battery. There is also an inline fuse between the battery and the relay.

You have to tuck the wiring carefully under the covers...always groom it loom it and make it tidy...

- - GIVI rear brake light connection and 3MReflective material for the rear of the bike (I would never ride anywhere without it - works even in daytime!) Š3M
