Yes you are catching me up, but only because I haven't been able to ride mine for the last 18 months-the drop and shoulder injury last year and hand surgery this year has sort of slowed me down a bit. In fact I am selling the ST4S as the riding position is too wristy (believe it or not) for my wrist's now-Sparky is going as well for the same reason.
I have ordered the new Multistrada thingy with the 1198 engine to replace them so all is not lost.............

My ST4s came with some small risers that I removed as I felt the handle bar was too high. Let me know if they would be any help to you. But I guess the new multithingy will be more than enough (not sure about knobly tyres though)

I tend to say that I am on 2.5 bikes at the moment.

ST4s for everyday (now heading towards the 35,000m...). I think that when I reach about 50,000 I will do a complete refurb.

+ 1038 RS for the track (998s which just got bored out to 1038cc with RS chassis and big mods. That used to be the bike the Mike Fernandez was racing in MRO. Only thing needed to be finished on her is redoing the race loom + installing a logger.

+ a special built from a 996 SPS Foggy, 996SPS engine with much Corse specs and pretty much full RS/Corse Chassis from a mix of 955Corse / 916R and 996RS. Some compromises made for road usage and will aim to have it on daytime MOT. Bike is currently at Nelly. Should have her finished by Autumn / end of year.

... then the part bin has been growing and I am thinking about doing a Sparky as well on a 996 chassis and Multistrada engine. But that's at least a year away!
