It's important on the ABS/TCS ST1100 to use genuine Honda rear brake pads. Yes aftermarket can fit but they are not as thick as genuine Honda, hence the pistons protrude too far and are exposed to the elements - then they corrode & seize.

Just came across your Chanel mate there’s one thing you forgot to do when you stripped down the calliper you forgot to take out the dust seal ring that fits where the piston goes you painted it the dust seal goes around it then you tap it back in place when you’ve put the piston In good vid mate

Hello Keith looking forward to seeing how the Varadero turns out. I wounder if you could help me with a problem I have with my 1999 Varadero. I did contact another KZbinr a while ago to ask his opinion & he tried to help me but it sadly didn't work & just wanted to see if you have any ideas. My problem is, my indicators are very slow to come on. In the warm weather they are fine but in the cold weather they could take 5 minutes before they start...I was told to change the relay which I did & I've also changed the bulbs but I have the same problem. In the warm they're fine but in the cold weather they take forever to come on. Could it be old wiring that's the problem ??? Hope you don't mind me asking & would be greatfull for any advice 👍
@TheAmateurBikeBuilderАй бұрын
Hi, i had heard of this before, never experienced it though, first would be the flasher relay as you have all ready done, then a long and slow process of checking each indicator wire and its connection as this can sometimes cause an issue and checking the indicator grounds make sure they are clean, other than that not really much i can suggest

Hi Kieth quick brain pick ⛏️ on the Honda ST 1100 I have removed cleaned , replaced two seals on piston on slave cylinder, but I have one left over the one for centre of clutch basket where rod connects , am wondering can that be removed from the front & replaced as in another video a guy working on a Shadow said it's got a lip & needs to be removed from the back which involves removing the outer clutch case with lots of nuts ?

@TheAmateurBikeBuilderАй бұрын

@MrGuffo2 ай бұрын
Hey Keith, awesome work you're doing! You're on the same path I was a few months ago with my project. Problem with the Vara is that the fork triple has a big offset to achieve the clearance from the frame, and the front axle has zero offset on the lowers. The Vara can steer a lot, so your options for complete front end will have to include this offset in the triple. Then, if you're sorta keeping the suspension travel, given this zero offset from the bars, then swapping to an enduro-like suspension might give you a complete different behavior, even to be unrideable at certain speed. So once more congrats on the plan, I'm totally looking forward to seeing the final result, and also make a quick research the available fork alternatives for this unique bike. Cheers!

Keith, I currently have two varas, one pretty stock looking and the other more off-road capable. I'd suggest to keep it as is, and if you feel sporty, go for the VTR1000. That way you'll have best of both worlds with almost the same engine. At one point I had the ST1100, the vara and the VTR1000. A really nice combo for my needs... and you're nearly there!

It seems to be a common problem on ST's, i also replaced the clutch hose for a HEL version and also put an extra rubber hose over the top as the hose sits near the exhaust and is prone to heat issues, you should see the state of the clutch slave, really gunked up in the video. also changed out the thermostat switch for one from a Honda Deauville, kicks the fan in early, never had a problem since
