Re: [ST] 1999-2001 Variations



Having owned a 2000 and a 2001 ST I noticed a few differences. The
following is from a post that I made back in September 2001 with additions:

1) Windscreen - The black trim piece at the top edge of the windscreen
has been eliminated. A similar edge profile is now molded into the
windscreen thus making it one piece.

2) Drive chain - The 2000 had a Regina. The 2001 has a D.I.D. 530VM

3) Frame, swingarm and pillion footrest support paint - The 2000 paint
on these was a solid color metallic. The 2001 paint has a stippled
effect. Upon first appearance it looks like a cheap casting. Upon closer
inspection, the "pits" in the casting are a dark gray while the surface
is closer to the silver of the 2000.

4) The bolts that hold the front brake calipers to the forks have been 
changed from Torx to hex head.

5) Wheels - In 99 and 00 the wheels were black. In 01 they went to silver.
