Hi everyone. Recently bought an 05 reg, naked, performance blue ST. Had it for 2 weeks now and I'm finding it very nice indeed! One thing I am finding a bit of a pain with it is the amount of wheelspin I get in the wet. Apart from that, I'm loving it!

hi and welcome to the site! I am sure you will get used to the clutch and wheel spin, it does like to spin up, but I think you will get better control of it over time, it's quite eager to go as it reaches the biting point!!

Enjoy it

I'm having to concentrate a little more when pulling out of junctions now but seems to be working. I haven't found the clutch too bad to get to grips with, haven't stalled it anyway...yet lol.

The paronoia of leaving it parked anywhere other than my house is beginning to disappear too. During the first few nights of having it parked outside my house I was constantly checking out the window everytime I heard something out in the street!
