      <title>Police Units: 2011 Honda ST1300P ABS -  Features &amp; Benefits</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Law enforcement agencies can now experience what other Honda riders have known all along: Nothing matches Honda's legendary performance, quality and reliability.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Features/Benefits&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Unique Features&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt; ABS combines with Combined Braking System (CBS) for a wide range of braking and steering control. ABS features an electric-motor-driven modulator that gives quick, precise braking-pressure adjustments and smooth ABS operation. The system incorporates an integrated electronic control unit (ECU) controller, self-diagnostics with an interactive ECU test function and automatic protection against system failure (see Technology Section).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; CBS uses a second master cylinder and a proportional control valve (PCV) to couple the three-piston calipers of the dual-disc front and single-disc rear brakes. Using the front brake lever activates the outer two pistons of the front calipers and the two outer pistons of the rear caliper. Rear pedal engagement activates the center piston of the rear brake caliper and the center pistons of the front calipers, and a delay valve slows initial front brake response to minimize front-end dive.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; A motor-driven adjustable windscreen offers 7.4 inches and 13 degrees of adjustability for greater wind protection and touring comfort. A thumb-operated push-button on the left handlebar operates the windscreen motor. An additional 2.3 inches of manual adjustment is possible by repositioning the windscreen on the mounting brackets.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; New special patrol speedometer is graduated in 2-mph increments above 10 mph. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Adjustable three-position dual-density solo seat.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Handlebars raised 25mm and width increased 13.5mm for rider comfort.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Specialized brackets for lights, sirens, antenna mount and radio/electronic equipment.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Rear component cover for electronics weather protection.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Left and right lower engine guards have built-in brackets for mounting accessories.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Right-handlebar-mounted multi-function switch controls.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; On/off headlight switch.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; 8mm side fairing air-deflector set.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Engine/Drivetrain&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Compact, powerful 1261cc DOHC 90-degree V-4 engine with an oversquare bore and stroke of 78mm x 66mm and longitudinal engine mounting improves power flow and drivetrain efficiency.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; The ST1300P's low overall center of gravity contributes to improved low-speed handling. The 360-degree crank contributes to a very broad powerband. Two engine counterbalancers virtually eliminate primary and secondary vibration. Both gear-driven counterbalancer shafts are installed in the lower crankcase to the left side of the crankshaft. The first shaft is driven directly by the crankshaft at a 2:1 ratio. The second shaft is positioned below the first and is driven in the opposite direction by the first balancer shaft's drive gear. The combination of these two balancers ensures a supremely comfortable ride.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Aluminum-composite cylinder sleeves are high-pressure-formed from sintered aluminum powder impregnated with ceramic and graphite. The composite sleeves provide better wear resistance and superior heat dissipation compared with conventional sleeves. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Large 31mm intake valves and 27mm exhaust valves feed a combustion chamber with a 10.8:1 compression ratio. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation system ensures high-rpm durability and allows 16,000-mile valve-maintenance intervals. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Four 36mm throttle bodies.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; High-pressure Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) delivers fuel at 50 psi into each injector (see Technology Section).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Fuel is delivered through eight holes in each injector, producing a very fine spray and a highly combustible air/fuel charge for maximum combustion efficiency and power.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; PGM-FI combines a sophisticated throttle sensor, advanced 3-D digital fuel-injection and ignition mapping and precisely metered fuel delivery to produce smooth and linear throttle response.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; ECU-controlled closed-loop emissions control system utilizes two oxygen sensors to constantly deliver a precise air/fuel mixture, while two exhaust catalyzers further reduce emissions of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Auto-enriching system is integrated into PGM-FI module, optimizing the air/fuel mixture on cold starts and eliminating the need for a manual choke.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; 4-into-2 stainless-steel exhaust system features a pair of attractive, triangular-section 5.4-liter mufflers with stainless-steel heat shields. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Dampers on the transmission mainshaft, clutch and driveshaft reduce noise, vibration and driveline lash.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; High-output 660-watt air-cooled alternator is relocated between the cylinder banks, contributing to a shorter and more compact engine design.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; U-shaped aluminum radiator has excellent cooling capacity; a ring-type fan draws air through the radiator at low speeds to ensure stable operating temperatures for consistent performance and long engine life.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Sturdy eight-plate hydraulic clutch.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Cassette-type five-speed transmission features gear ratios that allow for quicker acceleration and excellent roll-on performance.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Quiet and reliable shaft-drive system is virtually maintenance-free.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chassis/Suspension&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Rigid aluminum upper triple-clamp and a 45mm Honda Multi-Action System (HMAS) cartridge front fork provide excellent suspension control in a wide range of riding conditions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; The rear suspension incorporates a single shock, which mounts directly onto the swingarm. The shock offers 1.2 inches of spring preload adjustability. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Large 310mm stainless-steel floating front brake discs and 316mm rear disc for ultimate stopping power.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Wheels are three-spoke, U-section cast aluminum. The 5.0-inch-wide rear wheel sports a large, low-profile 170/60ZR-17 radial tire. The 3.5-inch-wide front wheel carries a 120/70ZR-18 radial tire.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Additional Features&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Full-coverage bodywork offers superb wind and weather protection, low noise and superior high-speed aerodynamics.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Integrated lockable and detachable saddlebags hold 35 liters each. The saddlebags contain straps to limit bag opening to 90 degrees to better secure the contents. The straps are easily unbuckled when the bags are dismounted, permitting full access.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Rugged, plastic-covered body-protector stays extend outward to protect the bodywork in case of a tip-over.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Dual-section fuel tank places 5.5 gallons of fuel in the conventional tank location with an additional 2.2 gallons located in a sub-tank located low in the chassis. This results in an increase in fuel capacity and creates an even weight distribution for fuel.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Electric fuel pump operates inside the sub-tank, providing consistent fuel pressure for the PGM-FI system. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Headlight features dual lenses with twin-filament H4 low/high-beam bulbs and multi-reflectors. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; A convenient push button located on the left side of the fairing electrically adjusts the headlight angle over a 2.5-degree range.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; A locking left-side fairing pocket offers the carrying capacity of an automobile console; a weather-resistant vinyl flap covers the right-side pocket. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Breakaway rearview mirrors minimize damage in the event of a tip-over.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Convenient centerstand assist-lever folds neatly away when not in use.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Integrated front and rear turn signals.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Integrated ignition switch/fork lock. A single ignition key operates all locks.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt; Non-transferable three-year, unlimited-mileage limited warranty.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;</description>

      <title>Police Units: 2009 Honda ST1300P ABS - Features &amp; Benefits</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Law enforcement agencies can now experience what other Honda riders have known 
  all along: Nothing matches Honda's legendary performance, quality and 
  reliability.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Unique Features&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; ABS combines with Combined Braking System (CBS) for a wide range of braking 
    and steering control. ABS features an electric-motor-driven modulator that 
    gives quick, precise braking-pressure adjustments and smooth ABS operation. 
    The system incorporates an integrated electronic control unit (ECU) controller, 
    self-diagnostics with an interactive ECU test function and automatic protection 
    against system failure (see Technology Section).&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; CBS uses a second master cylinder and a proportional control valve (PCV) 
    to couple the three-piston calipers of the dual-disc front and single-disc 
    rear brakes. Using the front brake lever activates the outer two pistons of 
    the front calipers and the two outer pistons of the rear caliper. Rear pedal 
    engagement activates the center piston of the rear brake caliper and the center 
    pistons of the front calipers, and a delay valve slows initial front brake 
    response to minimize front-end dive.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; A motor-driven adjustable windscreen offers 7.4 inches and 13 degrees of 
    adjustability for greater wind protection and touring comfort. A thumb-operated 
    push-button on the left handlebar operates the windscreen motor. An additional 
    2.3 inches of manual adjustment is possible by repositioning the windscreen 
    on the mounting brackets.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; New special patrol speedometer is graduated in 2-mph increments above 10 
    mph. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Adjustable three-position dual-density solo seat.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Handlebars raised 25mm and width increased 13.5mm for rider comfort.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Specialized brackets for lights, sirens, antenna mount and radio/electronic 
    equipment.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Rear component cover for electronics weather protection.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Left and right lower engine guards have built-in brackets for mounting 
    accessories.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Right-handlebar-mounted multi-function switch controls.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; On/off headlight switch.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; 8mm side fairing air-deflector set.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Engine/Drivetrain&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Compact, powerful 1261cc DOHC 90-degree V-4 engine with an oversquare bore 
    and stroke of 78mm x 66mm and longitudinal engine mounting improves power 
    flow and drivetrain efficiency.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; The ST1300P's low overall center of gravity contributes to improved 
    low-speed handling. The 360-degree crank contributes to a very broad powerband. 
    Two engine counterbalancers virtually eliminate primary and secondary vibration. 
    Both gear-driven counterbalancer shafts are installed in the lower crankcase 
    to the left side of the crankshaft. The first shaft is driven directly by 
    the crankshaft at a 2:1 ratio. The second shaft is positioned below the first 
    and is driven in the opposite direction by the first balancer shaft's 
    drive gear. The combination of these two balancers ensures a supremely comfortable 
    ride.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Aluminum-composite cylinder sleeves are high-pressure-formed from sintered 
    aluminum powder impregnated with ceramic and graphite. The composite sleeves 
    provide better wear resistance and superior heat dissipation compared with 
    conventional sleeves. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Large 31mm intake valves and 27mm exhaust valves feed a combustion chamber 
    with a 10.8:1 compression ratio. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation system ensures high-rpm durability 
    and allows 16,000-mile valve-maintenance intervals. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Four 36mm throttle bodies.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; High-pressure Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) delivers fuel at 50 psi 
    into each injector (see Technology Section).&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Fuel is delivered through eight holes in each injector, producing a very 
    fine spray and a highly combustible air/fuel charge for maximum combustion 
    efficiency and power.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; PGM-FI combines a sophisticated throttle sensor, advanced 3-D digital fuel-injection 
    and ignition mapping and precisely metered fuel delivery to produce smooth 
    and linear throttle response.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; ECU-controlled closed-loop emissions control system utilizes two oxygen 
    sensors to constantly deliver a precise air/fuel mixture, while two exhaust 
    catalyzers further reduce emissions of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and oxides 
    of nitrogen.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Auto-enriching system is integrated into PGM-FI module, optimizing the 
    air/fuel mixture on cold starts and eliminating the need for a manual choke.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; 4-into-2 stainless-steel exhaust system features a pair of attractive, 
    triangular-section 5.4-liter mufflers with stainless-steel heat shields. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Dampers on the transmission mainshaft, clutch and driveshaft reduce noise, 
    vibration and driveline lash.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; High-output 660-watt air-cooled alternator is relocated between the cylinder 
    banks, contributing to a shorter and more compact engine design.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; U-shaped aluminum radiator has excellent cooling capacity; a ring-type 
    fan draws air through the radiator at low speeds to ensure stable operating 
    temperatures for consistent performance and long engine life.&lt;/li&gt;

      <title>Police Units: 2006 Honda ST1300P- Features</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Law enforcement agencies can now experience what other Honda riders have known 
  all along; nothing matches Honda's legendary performance, quality and 
  reliability. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Features &amp; Benefits&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unique features&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; ABS model combines with LBS&amp;#8482; for a wide range of braking and steering 
    control. ABS features an electric-motor-driven modulator that gives quick, 
    precise braking pressure adjustments and smooth ABS operation. The system 
    incorporates an integrated ECU controller, self-diagnostics with an interactive 
    ECU test function, and automatic protection against system failure.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Linked Braking System (LBS) uses a second master cylinder and a proportional 
    control valve (PCV) to couple the three-piston calipers of the dual-disc front 
    and single-disc rear brakes for even better braking feel, while providing 
    the peace of mind of an LBS system. Using the front brake lever activates 
    the outer two pistons of the front calipers and the two outer pistons of the 
    rear caliper. Rear pedal engagement activates the center piston of the rear 
    brake caliper and the center pistons of the front calipers, and a delay valve 
    slows initial front brake response to minimize front-end dive.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; A motor-driven adjustable windscreen offers 7.4 inches and 13 degrees of 
    adjustability for greater wind protection and touring comfort. A thumb-operated 
    pushbutton on the left handlebar operates the windscreen motor. An additional 
    2.3 inches of manual adjustment is possible by repositioning the windshield 
    on the mounting brackets.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; New special patrol speedometer is graduated in 2 mph increments above 10 
    mph. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Adjustable 3-position dual-density solo seat.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Handlebars raised 25mm and width increased 13.5mm for rider comfort.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Specialized brackets for lights, sirens, antenna mount and radio/electronic 
    equipment.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Rear component cover for electronics weather protection.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Left and right lower engine-guards have built-in brackets for mounting 
    accessories.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Right-handlebar-mounted multi-function switch controls.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; On/Off headlight switch.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; 8mm side fairing air deflector set.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Engine/Drivetrain&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Compact, powerful 1261cc DOHC 90&lt;sup&gt;o&lt;/sup&gt; V-4 produces 125bhp at 8000 rpm and 
    85 lb./ft. of torque at 6000 rpm. Longitudinal engine-mounting eliminates 
    an inefficient 90-degree turn in the power flow for improved drivetrain efficiency.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; The ST1300's low overall center of gravity contributes to improved 
    low speed handling. The 360 degree crank contributes to a very broad powerband. 
    Two engine counterbalancers virtually eliminate primary and secondary vibration. 
    Both gear-driven counterbalancer shafts are installed in the lower crankcase, 
    to the left side of the crankshaft. The first shaft is driven directly by 
    the crankshaft at a 2:1 ratio. The second shaft is positioned below the first 
    and is driven in the opposite direction by the first balancer shaft's 
    drive gear. The combination of these two balancers assures a supremely comfortable 
    ride.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Aluminum composite cylinder sleeves are high-pressure-formed from sintered 
    aluminum powder impregnated with ceramic and graphite. The composite sleeves 
    provide better wear resistance and superior heat dissipation compared to conventional 
    sleeves. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Large, 31mm intake valves and 27mm exhaust valves feed a combustion chamber 
    with a 10.8:1 compression ratio. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation system ensures high-rpm durability 
    and allows 16,000-mile valve maintenance intervals. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Four 36mm throttle bodies.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; High-pressure PGM-FI delivers fuel at 50 psi into each injector.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Fuel is delivered through eight holes in each injector, producing a very 
    fine spray and a highly combustible air/fuel charge for maximum combustion 
    efficiency and power.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; PGM-FI combines a sophisticated throttle sensor, advanced 3-D digital fuel 
    injection and ignition mapping and precisely metered fuel delivery to produce 
    smooth and linear throttle response.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; ECU-controlled closed-loop emission control system utilizes two oxygen 
    sensors to constantly deliver a precise air/fuel mixture, while two exhaust 
    catalyzers further reduce emissions of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and oxides 
    of nitrogen.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Auto-enriching system is integrated into PGM-FI module, optimizing the 
    air/fuel mixture on cold starts and eliminating the need for a manual choke.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Four-into-two stainless steel exhaust system features a pair of attractive 
    triangular-section, 5.4-liter mufflers with stainless steel heat shields. 
  &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Dampers on the transmission mainshaft, clutch and drive shaft reduce noise, 
    vibration and driveline lash.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; High-output, 660-watt air-cooled alternator is relocated between the cylinder 
    banks, contributing to a shorter and more compact engine design.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; U-shape aluminum radiator has excellent cooling capacity, a ring-type fan 
    draws air through the radiator at low speeds to ensure stable operating temperatures 
    for consistent performance and long engine life.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Sturdy eight-plate hydraulic clutch.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Cassette-type five-speed transmission features gear ratios that allow for

&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chassis/Suspension&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Rigid aluminum upper triple-clamp and a 45mm Honda Multi-Action System 
    (HMAS) cartridge front fork provide excellent suspension control in a wide 
    range of riding conditions.&lt;/li&gt;

      <media:title>2006 Honda ST1300P- Features</media:title>
      <media:description type="html">&lt;p&gt;Law enforcement agencies can now experience what other Honda riders have known 
  all along; nothing matches Honda's legendary performance, quality and 
  reliability. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Features &amp; Benefits&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unique features&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; ABS model combines with LBS&amp;#8482; for a wide range of braking and steering 
    control. ABS features an electric-motor-driven modulator that gives quick, 
    precise braking pressure adjustments and smooth ABS operation. The system 
    incorporates an integrated ECU controller, self-diagnostics with an interactive 
    ECU test function, and automatic protection against system failure.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Linked Braking System (LBS) uses a second master cylinder and a proportional 
    control valve (PCV) to couple the three-piston calipers of the dual-disc front 
    and single-disc rear brakes for even better braking feel, while providing 
    the peace of mind of an LBS system. Using the front brake lever activates 
    the outer two pistons of the front calipers and the two outer pistons of the 
    rear caliper. Rear pedal engagement activates the center piston of the rear 
    brake caliper and the center pistons of the front calipers, and a delay valve 
    slows initial front brake response to minimize front-end dive.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; A motor-driven adjustable windscreen offers 7.4 inches and 13 degrees of 
    adjustability for greater wind protection and touring comfort. A thumb-operated 
    pushbutton on the left handlebar operates the windscreen motor. An additional 
    2.3 inches of manual adjustment is possible by repositioning the windshield 
    on the mounting brackets.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; New special patrol speedometer is graduated in 2 mph increments above 10 
    mph. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Adjustable 3-position dual-density solo seat.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Handlebars raised 25mm and width increased 13.5mm for rider comfort.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Specialized brackets for lights, sirens, antenna mount and radio/electronic 
    equipment.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Rear component cover for electronics weather protection.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Left and right lower engine-guards have built-in brackets for mounting 
    accessories.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Right-handlebar-mounted multi-function switch controls.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; On/Off headlight switch.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; 8mm side fairing air deflector set.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Engine/Drivetrain&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Compact, powerful 1261cc DOHC 90&lt;sup&gt;o&lt;/sup&gt; V-4 produces 125bhp at 8000 rpm and 
    85 lb./ft. of torque at 6000 rpm. Longitudinal engine-mounting eliminates 
    an inefficient 90-degree turn in the power flow for improved drivetrain efficiency.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; The ST1300's low overall center of gravity contributes to improved 
    low speed handling. The 360 degree crank contributes to a very broad powerband. 
    Two engine counterbalancers virtually eliminate primary and secondary vibration. 
    Both gear-driven counterbalancer shafts are installed in the lower crankcase, 
    to the left side of the crankshaft. The first shaft is driven directly by 
    the crankshaft at a 2:1 ratio. The second shaft is positioned below the first 
    and is driven in the opposite direction by the first balancer shaft's 
    drive gear. The combination of these two balancers assures a supremely comfortable 
    ride.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Aluminum composite cylinder sleeves are high-pressure-formed from sintered 
    aluminum powder impregnated with ceramic and graphite. The composite sleeves 
    provide better wear resistance and superior heat dissipation compared to conventional 
    sleeves. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Large, 31mm intake valves and 27mm exhaust valves feed a combustion chamber 
    with a 10.8:1 compression ratio. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation system ensures high-rpm durability 
    and allows 16,000-mile valve maintenance intervals. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Four 36mm throttle bodies.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; High-pressure PGM-FI delivers fuel at 50 psi into each injector.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Fuel is delivered through eight holes in each injector, producing a very 
    fine spray and a highly combustible air/fuel charge for maximum combustion 
    efficiency and power.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; PGM-FI combines a sophisticated throttle sensor, advanced 3-D digital fuel 
    injection and ignition mapping and precisely metered fuel delivery to produce 
    smooth and linear throttle response.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; ECU-controlled closed-loop emission control system utilizes two oxygen 
    sensors to constantly deliver a precise air/fuel mixture, while two exhaust 
    catalyzers further reduce emissions of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and oxides 
    of nitrogen.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Auto-enriching system is integrated into PGM-FI module, optimizing the 
    air/fuel mixture on cold starts and eliminating the need for a manual choke.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Four-into-two stainless steel exhaust system features a pair of attractive 
    triangular-section, 5.4-liter mufflers with stainless steel heat shields. 
  &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Dampers on the transmission mainshaft, clutch and drive shaft reduce noise, 
    vibration and driveline lash.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; High-output, 660-watt air-cooled alternator is relocated between the cylinder 
    banks, contributing to a shorter and more compact engine design.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; U-shape aluminum radiator has excellent cooling capacity, a ring-type fan 
    draws air through the radiator at low speeds to ensure stable operating temperatures 
    for consistent performance and long engine life.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Sturdy eight-plate hydraulic clutch.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Cassette-type five-speed transmission features gear ratios that allow for 
    quicker acceleration and excellent roll-on performance.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Quiet and reliable shaft-drive system is virtually maintenance-free.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chassis/Suspension&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Rigid aluminum upper triple-clamp and a 45mm Honda Multi-Action System 
    (HMAS) cartridge front fork provide excellent suspension control in a wide 
    range of riding conditions.&lt;/li&gt;

      <title>Police Units: 2005 Honda ST1300PA Features</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt; With the ST1300PA, law enforcement agencies can now tap into Honda's newest 
  technology while enjoying the legendary Honda quality and reliability.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;FEATURES &amp; BENEFITS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Unique features&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; ABS model combines with LBS&amp;#8482; for a wide range of braking and steering 
    control. ABS features an electric-motor-driven modulator that gives quick, 
    precise braking pressure adjustments and smooth ABS operation. The system 
    incorporates an integrated ECU controller, self-diagnostics with an interactive 
    ECU test function, and automatic protection against system failure.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Linked Braking System (LBS) uses a second master cylinder and a proportional 
    control valve (PCV) to couple the three-piston calipers of the dual-disc front 
    and single-disc rear brakes for even better braking feel, while providing 
    the peace of mind of an LBS system. Using the front brake lever activates 
    the outer two pistons of the front calipers and the two outer pistons of the 
    rear caliper. Rear pedal engagement activates the center piston of the rear 
    brake caliper and the center pistons of the front calipers, and a delay valve 
    slows initial front brake response to minimize front-end dive.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; A motor-driven adjustable windscreen offers 7.4 inches and 13 degrees of 
    adjustability for greater wind protection and touring comfort. A thumb-operated 
    pushbutton on the left handlebar operates the windscreen motor. An additional 
    2.3 inches of manual adjustment is possible by repositioning the windshield 
    on the mounting brackets.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; New special patrol speedometer is graduated in 2 mph increments above 10 
    mph. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Adjustable 3-position dual-density solo seat.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Handlebars raised 25mm and width increased 13.5mm for rider comfort.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Specialized brackets for lights, sirens, antenna mount and radio/electronic 
    equipment.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Rear component cover for electronics weather protection.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Left and right lower engine-guards have built-in brackets for mounting 
    accessories.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Right-handlebar-mounted multi-function switch controls.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; On/Off headlight switch.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; 8mm side fairing air deflector set.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Engine/Drivetrain&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Compact, powerful 1261cc DOHC 90&lt;sup&gt;o&lt;/sup&gt; V-4 produces 125bhp at 8000 
    rpm and 85 lb./ft. of torque at 6000 rpm. Longitudinal engine-mounting eliminates 
    an inefficient 90-degree turn in the power flow for improved drivetrain efficiency.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; The ST1300's low overall center of gravity contributes to improved low 
    speed handling. The 360 degree crank contributes to a very broad powerband. 
    Two engine counterbalancers virtually eliminate primary and secondary vibration. 
    Both gear-driven counterbalancer shafts are installed in the lower crankcase, 
    to the left side of the crankshaft. The first shaft is driven directly by 
    the crankshaft at a 2:1 ratio. The second shaft is positioned below the first 
    and is driven in the opposite direction by the first balancer shaft's drive 
    gear. The combination of these two balancers assures a supremely comfortable 
    ride.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Aluminum composite cylinder sleeves are high-pressure-formed from sintered 
    aluminum powder impregnated with ceramic and graphite. The composite sleeves 
    provide better wear resistance and superior heat dissipation compared to conventional 
    sleeves. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Large, 31mm intake valves and 27mm exhaust valves feed a combustion chamber 
    with a 10.8:1 compression ratio. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Direct shim-under-bucket valve actuation system ensures high-rpm durability 
    and allows 16,000-mile valve maintenance intervals. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Four 36mm throttle bodies.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; High-pressure PGM-FI delivers fuel at 50 psi into each injector.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Fuel is delivered through eight holes in each injector, producing a very 
    fine spray and a highly combustible air/fuel charge for maximum combustion 
    efficiency and power.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; PGM-FI combines a sophisticated throttle sensor, advanced 3-D digital fuel 
    injection and ignition mapping and precisely metered fuel delivery to produce 
    smooth and linear throttle response.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; ECU-controlled closed-loop emission control system utilizes two oxygen 
    sensors to constantly deliver a precise air/fuel mixture, while two exhaust 
    catalyzers further reduce emissions of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and oxides 
    of nitrogen.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Auto-enriching system is integrated into PGM-FI module, optimizing the 
    air/fuel mixture on cold starts and eliminating the need for a manual choke.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Four-into-two stainless steel exhaust system features a pair of attractive 
    triangular-section, 5.4-liter mufflers with stainless steel heat shields. 
  &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Dampers on the transmission mainshaft, clutch and drive shaft reduce noise, 
    vibration and driveline lash.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; High-output, 660-watt air-cooled alternator is relocated between the cylinder 
    banks, contributing to a shorter and more compact engine design.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; U-shape aluminum radiator has excellent cooling capacity, a ring-type fan 
    draws air through the radiator at low speeds to ensure stable operating temperatures 
    for consistent performance and long engine life.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Sturdy eight-plate hydraulic clutch.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Cassette-type five-speed transmission features gear ratios that allow for 
    quicker acceleration and excellent roll-on performance.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Quiet and reliable shaft-drive system is virtually maintenance-free.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Chassis/Suspension&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Rigid aluminum upper triple-clamp and a 45mm Honda Multi-Action System 
    (HMAS) cartridge front fork provide excellent suspension control in a wide 
    range of riding conditions.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; The rear suspension incorporates a single shock, which mounts directly 
    on the swingarm. The shock offers 1.2 inches of spring preload adjustability. 
  &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Large 310mm stainless steel floating front brake discs and 316mm rear disc 
    for ultimate stopping power.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Wheels are three-spoke U-section cast aluminum. 5.0-inch-wide rear wheel 
    and sports a large, low-profile 170/60ZR-17 radial tire. The 3.5-inch-wide 
    front wheel carries a 120/70ZR-18 radial tire.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Additional Features&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Full-coverage bodywork offers superb wind and weather protection, low noise 
    and superior high-speed aerodynamics.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Integrated lockable and detachable saddlebags hold 35 liters each. The 
    saddlebags contain straps to limit bag opening to 90 degrees to better secure 
    the contents. The straps are easily unbuckled when the bags are dismounted, 
    permitting full access.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Rugged, plastic-covered body-protector stays extend outward to protect 
    the bodywork in case of a tip-over.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Dual-section fuel tank places 5.5 gallons of fuel in the conventional tank 
    location with an additional 2.2 gallons located in a sub-tank located low 
    in the chassis. This results in an increase in fuel capacity and creates an 
    even weight distribution for fuel.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Electric fuel pump operates inside the sub-tank, providing consistent fuel 
    pressure for the PGM-FI system. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Headlight features dual lenses with twin-filament H4 low/high beam bulbs 
    and multi-reflectors. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; A convenient push button located on the left side of the fairing electrically 
    adjusts the headlight angle over a 2.5-degree range.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; A locking left-side fairing pocket offers the carrying capacity of an automobile 
    console; a weather-resistant vinyl flap covers the right-side pocket. &lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Breakaway rear view mirrors minimize damage in the event of a tip over.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Convenient centerstand assist-lever folds neatly away when not in use.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Integrated front and rear turn signals.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Integrated ignition switch/fork lock. A single ignition key operates all 
    locks.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Non-transferable three-year, unlimited-mileage limited warranty. &lt;/li&gt;

      <title>Police Units: 2003 Honda ST1100P Features</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt; With the ST1100P, Honda has created a police-issue version of its legendary 
  sport/touring machine, featuring Honda's mighty V-4 engine, sport-bred 
  handling and long-distance comfort and convenience. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FEATURES &amp;amp; BENEFITS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Unique Features&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Dual-density solo seat.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Specialized brackets for lights, sirens, antenna mount and radio/electronic 
    equipment.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Rear component cover for electronics weather protection.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Left and right lower engine-guards have built-in brackets for mounting 
    accessories.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Multi-function right handlebar switch includes controls for left/right 
    strobe lights (blink alternately or together), siren speaker with tone modulation, 
    rear strobe lamp and siren speaker.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Flush-mounted voltmeter built into left side of fairing.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Two additional switches for pulsing headlight and rear emergency lighting 
    on left side of fairing.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Engine/Drivetrain&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Liquid-cooled 1084cc longitudinally mounted V-4 engine produces excellent 
    horsepower and torque over a wide rpm range.&lt;br&gt;
    n Shim-under-bucket valve actuation ensures high-rpm reliability and offers 
    16,000-mile valve adjustment intervals.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Belt-driven camshaft for smooth, quiet, reliable operation.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Four-valve-per-cylinder technology provides excellent combustion efficiency 
    and high power.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Four 34.5mm CV carburetors provide crisp throttle response at all rpm.&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;li&gt; Digital ignition system.&lt;/li&gt;
