Paul,
just checked out your site. Nice house !
I see what you mean about the pannier frmae. Not too obtrusive at all.
Interesting point about the pwer difference between the st4 & st2 (107 vs 75).
I hadn't said anything before but I have ridden an st2 before and was quite underwhelmed by it. It seemed to have plenty of torque but got a bit breathless, and I couldn't keep up with the others in my group. Maybe I hadn't modified my riding style sufficiently, who knows.
Anyway, barring a thumbs down from the wife I feel another Ducati coming on
