Sports: Re: [DucatiST] Never should have sold it.

Check with Dave Roosevelt at SUB (Seattle Used Bikes)
I think he just had one in.

The MS turned out to be a money pit (swelling gas tank, clutch issues, and more) so I sold that as well. I've regretted selling the ST2 and decided to get another one or one of the other ST models, but have been finding them difficult to get my hands on.

I don't know if it was that particular bike, but it didn't have the "feel" that my ST2 had. It was plenty powerful, but seemed to lack a bit of throttle response and it didn't sound nearly as sweet as my ST2 (my ST2 had Staintune pipes, man did it sound sweet). Any thoughts from those that have had experience riding the different motors/models? I noticed the top end benefit from the ST4S, but I'd rather have the low end. It keeps me from losing my license for one thing. Sort of.
