1998 Honda ST 1100 Pan-European STD Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Honda for the touring motorcycle segment, the 1998 Honda ST 1100 Pan-European STD features a 1084 cc (66.2 cu in) liquid-cooled v4, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 100 HP (73 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 111 Nm (81.9 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 92.3 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the ST 1100 Pan-European STD measures 287 kg (633 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.35 HP/kg (2.87 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance.
