When I picked up my new ST4s from the dealer it was raining cats n dogs and the next day it was lovely n sunny. I spent those two days doing the 500mile run-in and then back to the dealer for the post purchase inspection.

That's all the mileage in differing road conditions it took me to appreciate that this bike was something very special.

And now 5yrs later I am still being rewarded every time I go out for a ride - it is just so rewarding when in motion in so many ways too numerous to list. Then comes the bonus - when parked it looks wonderful.

Horses for courses - and this horse ain't no donkey, more of a throughbred that is not at all temperamental.
