| The panniers are made by Nonfango and are custom made for the ST series. If you have a look at my site you will see some pic of my bike. There is a frame arrangement which i dont think looks too bad.
Are they still doing the non ABS ST4S? I dont think any of the range have linked brakes.
The clutch is the same as your 996! They don't last much more than 10,000 miles and as you know they are not quiet although the 4S ha alloy plates ( a mod i did to mine) which makes it much quieter.
The brake problem appears to only bother certain bikes. Mine has done 17000 miles and its fine but i know of a 51 plate ST4S that warped its disks.
I think of my bike as a comfy 916, the 4S is a comfy 996 and shares all its faults and quirks. |
