My St4s rocks... We do about 800-1000 miles a week out here in the summer and (dare I say this) have not had any issues to date. The bike does however suck at around town speeds, it likes to be on the open road and corners as well as my smaller Monster at 45-65mph. The best 2-up riding I've done is on the St4s. Best of luck!!

CH LUKE-- Tell me more about after market head lights, no doubt the stock on an '02 are horrible.
