Still, I have never had a sore wrist from my ST except from a lot of clutch use in heavy traffic. Otherwise, touring is pretty comfortable. Would be nice to see a refined sports tourer again though.

The colour panels on the picture are much shallower than the ones on the ST4S or a current Multistrada, and the topbox is very deep-I think that IS the new luggage. As for Butt Ugly-well I shall await seeing it in the metal before I decide. Those who have seen it without all the tape and padding say it is a really well styled bike-we shall see soon I guess-lets face it the ST range won't win any beauty contest's-but we all like them.
