ST3 Opinions

You were asking how people were getting along with their ST3s. I have had mine for 14 months. I've only done 2400 miles but the bike has been great. Mine is the original dry clutch model which I like. No rattles or "graunching" when I accelerate off. I am aware that Ducati clutches can be noisy.
The bike is very comfortable to ride and you can have the bars in either a low or high position. I find the lower forward position most comfortable.
The bike is very stable and for a tourer corners remarkably well.The screen protects and the mirrors enable you to see what's happening behind without the need to move elbows inwards.
Bike magazine slated the ST3 for poor suspension and fuelling glitches but perhaps the bike they tested needed sorting.
I have noticed that nobody seems to be selling these bikes and the few people I know who own one like them and intend to keep them.
