I still don't know why there is this invisible barrier at 250cc for most Chinese bikes. Maybe it is a domestic regulation there. 400cc or more would make sense for a Vtwin!
Lifan does have a 300cc and a 600cc V twin. The 2024 EPA regulations have changed and making it harder to get anything passed EPA. It's not just Lifan. CSC and CF Moto and a few others are having issues too.

Watched your walk around Jerry. That is a nice looking bike. I like the name too, reminds me of werewolves (lycanthropy). That beings said, when there is a full moon, avoid riding it.

Its a nice looking bike, even for a non-werewolf. heheheh

Thanks, I really like it. Very comfortable ride. I rode for about 3 hours and didn't feel like it. I think it's the perfect bike for me.

The ST is the most perfect touring bike Honda had made, in my opinion. Great power, not half a ton like the Goldwing, but every bit as smooth. Good handling bike too.

I didn't even know this St1300 existed until recently. I always been a cruiser and Dual Sport person. When I ran across the St1300 on FB Marketplace, i began doing a little research. I liked the fact that it was more in the weight range of bike that I would feel more comfortable with. The power is ridiculous. Front wheel will lift unintentionally with hard acceleration. Ask me how i know. I'm really liking this bike more every time I take it out.

Does the Lycan make my ST1300 look small? Obvious optical illusion. lol The Lycan is about the same size as the Vulcan S though.

So i installed the 40 tooth rear sprocket Friday after work. The original sprocket was a 45 tooth. Man that makes a huge difference. The JTR857.40 is a perfect fit. https://amzn.to/49WTely
