I felt the same with my Norge. I liked the extra 100ccs, but much preferred to ride my Breva.Later, I indulged in 1200 Sports, the best of both worlds.
If you are traveling faster than 10 MPH why are you looking right in front of the motorbike ? Dusty
It's precisely at low speeds when manouvering that it disturbed me .I guess one would get used to it if the benefit was perceived...for me it wasn't as I also hated the wind noise so I gt rid of it.
Bad fairing design . Life is much quieter behind a properly designed fairing . I literally never *see* the fairing , even at walking speeds I am focused out at least 10 feet . Dusty
The ST2 has a nicely designed fairing. In the sport touring posture the wind is directed over my head, the faring isn't exactly in my line of vision ..but...I just don't like it...There was some wind today and it does grab the bike more than my naked 96 Monster.. It changes the sounds and feel so it disrupts disrupts how I ride..I'm not hearing the tire on pavement when I brake hard.Or sensing speed by the wind on my helmet...And the fairing seems confining.. But it's not all bad...A brief rain shower ,I din't get wet
I got the 98 Ducati ST2 last year for longer trips...I have been riding the bike and...I don't feel right with the bodywork..It makes me feel "not in control" Somehow it's interfering with my perception of the bike and where it is on the road..It's very uncomfortable, I just suppose after 45 years of naked frame bike , can't adjust to it........It's a fine handling machine but I'm much happier on the old 900 Monster or the 79 Triumph....Bye Bye ST2
Did you try to remove it for maintenance yet? Horrible design - hated the one on my ST4s for that reason...Battery removal required that all of it (front included) had to come off, mirrors too. They were blaming it on Terblanche...self tapping screws on a fairing, really??
