| Only just seen this post as I have been away.
Ride height-as stated by Nelly, rear tyre just kissing the ground when on the stand works for me, the bike will tip in much more easily and you won't need so much bar pressure or lean off to make it turn. I always run 34F 36R pressures-but it's a personal thing tyre pressure, some like them harder some softer. No way does an ST need a steering damper, I have had my '4S from May 2001-it was one of the first delivery-and have done 34,000 miles on it, lots of which have been 2 up with full luggage. It has been to the foot of Italy, and the Arctic Circle, been round the Nurburgring, and used for instructing on our trackday-basically a brilliant bike.
