2009 Honda ST1300 Pan European

Introduction

There’s hardly a highway or by-way in Europe that hasn’t been conquered by the coveted and super-accomplished Pan-European. Its impressive V4 engine is breathtakingly capable, delivering sporty blasts of acceleration when you want if as well as the power to carry a full load for long distances. Its elegant, aerodynamic bodywork is sculpted to cut through the breeze, as well as shielding you from the elements and concealing ample capacity for luggage.

The unique adjustable seat is designed for all-day comfort. A low, centralised mass makes the machine reassuringly stable; yet it’s also nimble enough to negotiate city traffic and have some fun on twisty roads. High-performance Super Sports suspension systems smooth out bumpy surfaces. Honda’s innovative Dual Combined Brake System ensures a uniquely responsive balance of stopping performance, and for supreme control, there’s the Combined ABS version.

Wide-ranging optional touring equipment, excellent fuel efficiency and a generous 29-litre tank make it even easier for you to get on the road and stay there. The Pan-European was designed to travel - long and short distances, alone and two-up, rain or shine. You just need to choose the trip!
