Sports: Re: [DucatiST] Re: ST4s Wont start

Hmmm...touring and carrying a spare ECU. I have a new to me '03 ST4s with about 16,700 miles and plan on doing a bit of touring this spring/summer. What's the going price on an ECU? All I've had in the Ducs (well for that matter, all my bikes) are the carbed versions so all this fancy fuel injection etc is all new to me. It also has a PC Commander hooked into the ECU.

Paul,

Sounds like a bad ECU $$. My '02 ST4s is on its third ECU in 55,000 miles. I never tour w/o a spare ECU in my tankbag.
