Hmmm...how long has it been since things like the throttle bodies were balanced etc..Sounds as if it's running rougher than it should.

My ST2 vibrates a bit more than my 4 valver, but not so much that it feels agricultural, in fact there's not much in it and my ST is really quite good at low speed. I do have a 14 tooth sprocket on it though.

Well, 'agricultural' is a matter of perception. I'm confident the throttle bodies etc are fine. The sprockets have been tweaked, too.

To be honest, I'm not sure this is the bike for me. I've already managed to scratch the paint on the offside pannier *and* nearside mirror, getting it in and out of my back yard. This on Day One!

I fear it may be a bit too big and heavy for me.

Mood: st2......we can rebuild
put my st2 up at the begining of summer
and now the grits out the 749 is going into hibernation
i'm really looking forward to getting back on the st
the grunt of that 2 valve engine is awsome and the ease of fast turning is a real joy

do the ST2's have the adjustable headlight feature? I have no lighting problems with my 4, but perhaps the lighting is totally different.

I'm pretty sure they're the same. Mad Dog. I'll get it sorted tomorrow.
