View Full Version : 2001 Ducati ST4

11th August 2010, 20:08
Just had 60,000km completed which included new belts and valve clearances checked and adjusted - rides better than ever1
Service history for 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60,000km services
Running Avon VP2 sport tyres, rear 1/3 worn, front 2/3 worn. Real nice tyres, I like them and would buy them again.
New clutch plates fitted at 45,000km, June 2009
Heated Grips
Scott Oiler
Factory panniers and Ventura rack
Carbon fibre mufflers (no issues with noise when getting WoF)
Registration expires Sept 2011 (yes, next year)
There's a few stone chips around the headlight and leading edges of the fairing, consistent with the km. Back of the tank has a few scratches where a key went through my jacket pocket (Murphys law being what it is the scratches are next to the tank protector!).
I bought the bike with 11,000km on the clock just over three years ago, in that time I've clocked up nearly 50,000km and been all over the SI.
Been a fabulous bike for me and don't see why it won't be for the next owner.
Selling because the km/belts/valves/registration/tyres/time of year/planets/wife all align. It's the right time to move on.
Will be missed but onwards and upwards.
Will post up some better photos on the weekend.

Ha ha, you mistake take for someone old!
I should add that in between the documented services I've changed the oil and filter, i.e. 5,000km between oil and filter changes.

Farqueue was getting pretty excited over the new KEEWAY range. Perhaps you two could do a group buy and make some worthwhile savings!!!

I just discovered this thread and find you pricks being utter bitches
Farqueue was getting pretty excited over the new KEEWAY range. Perhaps you two could do a group buy and make some worthwhile savings!!!I’ve told you once already – far …….. cough
He's a rather excitable old man though!Nothing wrong with a bit of excitement, something you’d need to be careful off in your advancing years.
A few photos before I put the fairing back on this morning. More tomorrow with the fairing on (got side tracked after lunch today).A bit much effort for you eh and needed a wee lie down. You poor old fella, I guess you’ll be looking for something new that you can get the zimmer frame on.

Looks like a well looked after bike. Do you still have the original exhausts? Wish I could score those panniers off you:blink:
I have GPR's as well but they are a bit loud. I wonder if the ST4 exhausts fit the 4s. I would have preferred opened up originals rather than the GPR. That might be my age though!!!!!!!!!!!:shit::shit:

Thanks. I've done what I can to keep it looking and going the part.

The exhausts are interchangeable between the 4 and the 4S (the ST2 and the ST3 are both different). I do have the originals but I had them cored and then found out they weren't in the best of condition. I didn't like the sound of the cored cans, too loud and tinny, so bought the GPRs.
Good luck in scoring my panniers - you're going to need it! :D

The funny thing is the trash people just aint picky these days, leave it at the gate and they will take anything. I bet not even viable for recycling, so straight to landfill.... I know I deff would not be going to Kate Vally now, even now buried the land will be forever poluted.
The boy is being very secretive... I bet he just dont want the piss to be taken out of him for buying an MV.
