Anyone gone from a 996 to an ST4s?

Hi guys,



just wondered if anyone had changed from a 996 to an st4s?

If you have, what are your thoughts re the differences in performance, handling, excitement etc etc?

I changed from a 996 to an ST4S a few years ago and I thought the ST was absolutely superb. Not that I didn't like the 996 but I just wanted to try something else after a couple of years. It was a bit more than just a comfy 996 though - it was great to be able to carry some luggage and cover big distances without the aches and pains. I took mine to Europe a few times and it could sit comfortably at 110-120mph on the autobahn but also feel nice and nippy on twisty roads. I changed the tyres to something more long-lasting as I didn't need sticky rubber. The suspension was great too, though when it came out at first everyone said it needed a few tweaks from the standard and..bob's yer uncle.
