The ST1100 is known to be extremely reliable. It runs smoothly, does not require much maintenance and has a [[driveshaft|shaft drive]] as opposed to a chain. Standard equipment includes [[panniers]], making it easy to carry luggage and travel long distances. | The ST1100 is known to be extremely reliable.

The ST1300 features a 1261 cc [[V4 (engine)|V4 engine]] mounted as a stressed member in a lighter aluminum frame. The rear wheel is driven through a cassette-type five-speed transmission and the familiar [[driveshaft|shaft drive]]. The revised engine layout and a split fuel tank shift some of the weight downward, making the ST1300 less top-heavy than its predecessor. A long list of minor differences provided what some felt was an improvement on the ST1100's already excellent comfort, handling and performance. | The ST1300 features a 1261 cc [[V4 (engine)|V4 engine]] mounted as a stressed member in a lighter aluminum frame.
