Thanks.

I have the 5th Gen VFR currently, and want to get into a ST3. As it is a weekend bike only, I don't do many kays a year.

And yes I love the sound of the V4 with the Staintune exhaust, but when I had my Monster that Duc sound coming out of the Termi's was just as intoxicating. There is something very special about a Duc, that is for sure.

Looking forward to finding an ST3....

Very interested to understand where and why you think your VFR is superior than your 07 ST3.

Interesting read.....
I've currently got a 98 Vfr800 with the gear driven cams and have a staintune on it. The sound is just great.

But as I've always wanted a Duc, I bought a Monster 695 that was going at the right price. Loved the Ducati sound and liveliness of that engine . So now I've sold the monster and am on the hunt for an St3.

So in terms of soul that everyone is talking about, can any one who had a 5th Gen VFR800 comment compared to an ST3? Details of note, ride quality, suspension?
