So, now that most of this discussion has reached a certain culmination, what do you folks think about the 996 motor in the ST4. Any ideas on how it has been improved and de-tuned for the sport touring duties it now takes on. I am still breaking mine in and limiting myself to about 7500 rpm shifts, but it keeps getting better. I know, I know, it is not an S or an R, but basically it is still a WSB engine.
