WHEN IT WOULD START IT WAS GREAT...
power - handling & comfort - brilliant.
seemed to eat batteries
looks great, dead comfy to ride all day - when it starts that is, mine was a right awkward sod to start,

BLAST OR TOUR IN COMFORT
Torquey v twin engine that allows for roll in and power out cornering. Handles well, particularly, after sorting the fully adjustable front and rear suspension on my ST2, without sacrificing the bikes higher speed stability. Sounds great with standard pipes too! Good, lasting build quality (10yrs & Ducati!).
Not a town bike. Slightly snatchy at very low speeds and clutch feels a little heavy after a lot of use. Servicing costs higher than Japanese main stream bikes.
Clutch slave cylinder fails after a few years if fluid not changed regularly. Not as refined an engine as an in line four or V four, but makes up for it with usable grunt!
Built for blasting along the open road in comfort, choose sports bike mode and enjoy precise A road scratching, alternatively, the ST will tour in comfort. Fairing does a good job at deflecting wind blast and you can see out of these Ducati mirrors! The build quality is very good and this is one of the first bikes where Ducati are getting close to what we expect for in reliability stakes.
