Yes, they're grunty, yes, the riding position is OK. But it's too big, too heavy, too damn crude. The 748 fitted me. This doesn't.

And the lights are the worst I've had since my old 6V TS 125. To be fair, I can't believe they can't be further improved. The ride height has been reduced, and the adjusters tilted up. but more is needed: much more.

Maybe the 2 valve ones are not as smooth as the 4, I've never riden one, but I love my ST4S is all I can say.

Maybe change the bulbs for new ones, perhaps they are a the end of there life.

I got my suspension sorted out by Steve Jordan in Bookham, Surrey, Ohlins technician, runs a race bike or 2, so he knows what to do, after that I was more at home with the performance of the suspension.
