Wondering what that “P” in the model name is all about? Well, law enforcement officers certainly don’t as these bikes address specifically to them.
For 2009 Honda also produces Police models of the notorious ST1300/ABS. Easy to handle, a top performer and very reliable, the ST may not feature any upgrades, but it surely won’t pass unnoticed when the lights and sirens are turned on. Ouch, that never sounds good!

Call them bikes that perfectly fill the gap between Honda’s flagship Gold Wing tourer and their CBR liter bike and you won’t be wrong as the ST1300 and ST1300 ABS are simply long haul motorcycles with sport bike expectations. With sleek, full-coverage bodyworks, an adjustable windscreen and removable luggage, these smooth and agile, V4-powered machines are also built to get the best out of that long way home.

Ever wanted one of the motorcycle used by the Police force? Now is your chance. The United Kingdom Police is getting rid of their Honda ST1300 motorcycles.
There have been problems with these motorcycle in the past, due mostly to the heavy load carried by the cops. Communication gear, emergency gear, you name it added to much weight and made the Pan wobble at high speeds. After the death of one Police Officer, it was decided to take the Pan-European motorcycles off the Force, and sell them.
There are no problems for “normal” people riding them (honest). The center of gravity problem that made them unstable does not affect these bikes under normal circumstances.
Some of the motorcycles being sold are close to new, and have a low price, often 25% below list price.
The motorcycles are full Police spec: ABS, heated grips, electric screens, panniers and rear rack. The Police Service History is available for each bike.
They don’t mention if the coloring scheme has changed, but I think they will have. One thing is for sure, they will have removed the Police lights and sirens.

Sport-touring is something of an abstraction. A motorcyclist taking off for a ride doesn’t think, "I believe I will go sport-touring today." Instead, it’s more like, "Today I’m riding long, and I’m riding hard. Let’s roll." And that’s what the Honda ST1300 is all about: Ride hard, ride long.

Think of the ST1300 as the best of both worlds: a touring machine born of Honda’s standard-setting Gold Wing with performance bred from our championship-winning sportbikes. From its smooth, longitudinally mounted V-4, plush suspension and wind-cheating bodywork to its motorized, adjustable windshield, removable luggage and an Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), sport-touring just doesn’t get any better.
