| I recently bought a mint 2002 ST4 with 7000 miles from Ducati Leeds and landed a really good deal (in my opinion). So its not all bad news, there were similar ST4s's with more miles, but there was a much better deal to be done on the ST4.
Great Ducati engine, great Ducati handling, comfortable size for a tall guy (not all Duke's do this), panniers so I get more use of the bike and all seriously affordable. A bit of a frumpy look around the headlight etc, but a great bike.
As far as I'm aware the ST4s is still a part of the range, I think the end of the ST4 is only natural, with the 3, 4, 4s and 2 Multistradas, there's only so many multipurpose new bikes are going to sell (especially italian ones), so dropping the 4 was only natural. |
