Re: [DucatiST] 2007 ST3 ABS fork

 

Hey Will that would be a happy ending! And I'm all for those. Can I attach a picture to the email, or is it more involved?

Reed, can you describe the handling issues/wear in more detail...maybe with a picture.  As I said, it could be simply because you are driving into left handers harder/faster than right hand turns, wearing the left side of the front tire more.

ST3s ABS came with Ohlins rear shock and fully adjustable Showa forks. Gold colour is the TiN lowfriction coating – it is wearing away on my 2006 ST3s ABS which has now clocked up 61,500 miles since I bought it new in March 2006.

Umm guys I have to ask a pretty basic question. My understanding was that 2007 ST3 ABS came with Ohlins suspension. My rear shock certainly displays the Ohlins colors but on the forks the only thing gold is the male section of the USD fork. The guy I use for my BMW scratched his head and said "Zat does not look like Ohlins to me". Is there a way I can tell if my fork is original?

The bike is wearing the front tire a little weirdly (much more just left of center) and feels different on right and left turns - I have seen some fairing brackets slightly bent. How rough a life did this thing have in the 2700 miles before I bough it?

Feeling paranoid
