Morning, Recent 1998 ST2 owner, 2nd Ducati having previously owned M900 café racer. Really impressed with the ST2, especially when I can get the son off the back! Looking forward to picking some brains. Giler
welcome - nice bike ! I like watching Swindon on those Police Reality shows - sometimes my brother's on (getting arrested)
That's about 1000 miles per year, which is really peanuts for a sport tourer. Bike seems in excellent condition judging from the photo!
It is really tidy, well pleased with it, have panniers too. will be adding some nice pipes at some point, and changing the mirrors for bar end ones.
My wife has an ST2 from the same era. They seem very well made bikes in the cosmetics department, there is no tatty paint or anything that would show how old it is. The only thing that I don't like is the puny alternator. I have built a different headlight and taillight just to overcome the electrics weakness and to improve the light output. I have also made a few cosmetic improvements like painting the pannier frames metallic silver and shortening them. She has a pair of GPR cans on hers and loves them. All the mods are written up and photographed and are on my blog. ducatistbike.wordpress.com
Hi, looked at the blog before I bought mine, very interesting. Think I'll go with GPR cans, look well made for the price.
