I bought an ST4S in December and even though weather has kept me off the road more than I want, I have still enjoyed it for the 850 or so km I have ridden it. Good low end torque, wonderful supsension (better than ST3) and a pleasure to ride in various modes. Just rode my first pillion the other night and she was impressed...wants more. She liked the sound, like the feel of stability, like the acceleration (only shifting at 6000 rpm for first 1000 km), liked the seat. I live in UJM land, but I have had at least 15 people comment on the looks. Rode an ST3 before buying my 4 and I liked the engine feel, perhaps more tractor light. Technically, the 3 valver sounds pretty interesting as a sports tourer. Probably a good buy and good fun in so many ways, including joining groups like the DSC.
