Or actually a bit more-Ducati 'de-tuned' the 996 for the ST4S and ended up with both more power and more torque-nice trick.
The pipes on a 748/916/996/998 are about 2 feet too long for effective scavenging of the exhaust gases.
ST4S is a VERY effective road bike, and not too shabby round a track either-is it Andy.
