The Honda ST1100, also known as the Pan-European, is a sport touring motorcycle[1][2][3] that was manufactured by Honda until 2002.

History

The ST1100 (ST from Sport Touring, 1100 from the engine capacity) began its production in 1990 and ended in 2002, although the police variant, the ST1100P, was available for several more years.[4] A revamped model, the ST1300 which is also called the Pan-European, was launched in 2002 worldwide and was available in the US in 2003.

Features

ST1100 sport tourer, left, versus heavier tourer GL1800, right.

The ST1100 was optimized for long-distance touring with the following features:

  • Low maintenance shaft drive
  • A unique longitudinal V-4 engine layout
  • Optional antilock brakes (ABS) and traction control system (TCS). 1996 and later Models equipped with ABS also have front-rear linked brakes (LBS). ABS model years from 1992 through 1995 have traditional separate front and rear braking systems.
  • 28 l (7.4 US gallon) fuel tank, one of the largest ever supplied for a motorcycle, giving it a range of about 300 highway miles (480 km)
  • 40 amp, air-cooled alternator to power multiple accessories such as auxiliary lighting and electrically heated clothing (Early models had a problematic 28 amp alternator which can be upgraded to the 40 amp version)
