presentation of the ST4 916 2000
ducati bikes have one wonderful thing in common: a natural instinct for sportiness. With the creation of the ST series, Ducati has embarked on a sporty tourer... that just needs a bit of drive from the rider to get into a very sporty rhythm. Compared to the 2-valve ST2, the ST4 has just one major difference: its boiler is the liquid-cooled desmoquattro of the 916. With the renowned muscle of a Superbike champion, the ST has even more character than its little sister. VFR enthusiasts, don't expect the same kind of docile machine. The twin's flexibility is very relative, and it's best not to spend too long at the bottom of the rev counter, especially as there's not much torque there. The powerplant delivers volcanic power at 8,000 rpm. For a sports car, this is particularly thrilling - for a tourer, moderately cool...
If we continue in this vein, we note inadequate protection and a driving position that is suited to sport, but less so to touring, and frankly tiring. The chassis, taken over from the ST2, doesn't really appreciate rough roads. On benevolent tarmac, the bike is synonymous with precision and efficiency. Exaggerating a little, one might conclude that this is a 916 with suitcases. The ST4 isn't quite so exclusive; it's aimed at fans of Italian sportbikes who demand a minimum of comfort, a little room for 2 small bags and mini versatility to carve up the road.
