At the heart of the 2014 Honda ST1300 ABS sport touring motorcycle, Honda utilizes a 1261 cc (77 cu in) liquid-cooled v4, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 78.0 x 66.0 mm (3.1 x 2.6 inches) with a 10.8:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the ST1300 ABS measures 331 kg (730 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,491 mm (58.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 29.14-liter (7.7 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 6.72 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 434 km (270 miles) between fill-ups.
