Pretty sure it's a Honda ST1100 Pan European.

That's the 1300, not the 1100. Some forces changed back to the 1100 when the 1300 was found to have the speed wobble problem.

Standard Honda issue ST1100P. Lateish model, as well as the police stuff has aftermarket screen. Looks like ABS fitted too. Surprisingly it looks like the additional wind deflector kit is missing. As said, speed wobble only on ST1300 and then only on a few depending on the load and/or rider.

...going to hide now, I can feel my inner nerd wanting to come out and play.

BBC website reckoned it was the weight of the lights and police kit affecting the CoG and pishing about with the speed wobble.

Saying that, I've had several absolutely tank past me on the M4.
