I must say that the ST obviously DOESN'T feel like 150 bhp to me. I got mine in April, got something around 7000 km now, haven't noticed any difference from when it had 2000 km. Also, I find that 2nd gear is a lot of cool noise, but no performance at all. How do you guys feel about 2nd gear? 3rd and 4th are very good above 4000 revs, but 2nd is just lame
