Triumph Sprint description

2008 Triumph Sprint ST, CONTACT KYLE FOR DETAILS(480) Triumph Sprint ST is practically the definition of sport-touring as the bike is famous for its versatility. Able to take you in comfort on those long trips all over the country and still retaining a sporty behavior, the Sprint ST is the perfect all round motorcycle.When Triumph created the Sprint ST it intended to confuse , in a good way, the motorcycling public. For that purpose the bike would have to go fast and still remain extremely comfortable while its stylish apparel didn t quite help you to name it a sporty bike or an absolute tourer. The beauty of it is that it implements the best of everything, being best represented by the words power and all round practicability.HistoryIn the early 1990s, Triumph launched the Sprint 900, a sport-touring motorcycle fitted with a 955cc engine and three cylinders positioned inline. The bike was a big hit and it kept being produced without major changes until the end of 1997.By 1998, the British manufacturer had planed to present the Sprint ST, a redesigned version of the previous model using the same engine which was slightly improved and now delivered its 105bhp smoothly while being mated to a six-speed gearbox. Triumph Sprint ST In 2002, Triumph did what everybody expected it to it upgraded the engine so that it would deliver 118bhp and 100Nm. This upgrade made it more able to fight its competitors and regain its crown. The adjustable clutch levers, LED taillights, and the relocation of the seat lock came in handy and helped the Sprint ST make a good figure.The model year 2002 brought a major revamp of the inline triple as this unit now displaced 1050cc and was fed with the help of a fuel injection system. The displacement increase and the addition of fuel injection helped the engine on the Sprint ST develop 125bhp. The entire motorcycle was now more compact and behaved better while cornering thanks to a completely new chassis. Riders were more than happy with the miles-per-gallon and miles-to-empty displays because the bike could be ridden without worrying about a red light coming on and off. The Sprint ST spoiled its customers no only with the previously mentioned displays, but with a new under seat exhaust and cool headlights. 2005 model year was the last important year in the Sprint ST history.In order to continue spoiling its customers, Triumph introduced for 2007 model year color-matched panniers, handlebar risers and an upgraded windscreen. By improving the bike s apparel and levels of comfort, Triumph really pulled it through with this one.

Motorcycle Live and a few of my favourite things for 2013

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

There is lots of shiny new metal on show at Motorcyclelive this year but for me it’s the new Triumph Daytona 675 that steals the show.  We’ve been starved of brand new models in the Supersports segment for years but for me the latest Trumpet has made the wait worthwhile. And if its performance matches its looks then I reckon the 2013 bike of the year is a foregone conclusion.  The sleek curvy nose contrasts perfectly with the more pointy angular rear end and new side mounted silencer. It is lighter, more powerful and revs harder with much work on on mass centralisation to further improve handling.  Few of us have a whole lot of spare cash these days but £8899 for the standard model seems a fair price for such an awesome bike. That said I’d have to consider selling the granny and granddad to find the extra £1700 for the 675R.  Available early next year, and surely the perfect all round track day tool, this beauty comes with upgraded suspension, brakes, ABS, a quickshifter and some nice carbon detailing. The white 675R on display at the show looked even better in the flesh than previous images I’d seen so be careful or you might find yourself handing over a deposit. With no money left from the Triumph stand you’ll need your six special numbers to come up for my second favourite show item the AGV Pista GP Project 46. Although road legal this extremely light, full carbon helmet is designed especially for racing with a huge field of vision, extensive ventilation and superb ergonomics. It also comes with earplugs which suggests there may be some compromise in the noise department but it is still an incredible piece of engineering. At £799, this special Pista is also an incredible price but there will only be one hundred available and Raceways Yamaha reckon they are going fast.        

Motorcycle Freestyle Rider Ernie Vigil Puts Triumph’s Scrambler Through The Wringer [Video]

Wed, 21 Mar 2012

  With its on/off-road tires, spoke wheels, high rise dual exhaust, protective fork gators and flat one-piece seat and handlebar, Triumph’s Scrambler evokes notions of a McQueen-esque go anywhere, do anything machine in a modern motorcycle. It’s probably safe to assume few Scrambler owners today put their retrofied rides to the test, seeing just how much abuse the 865cc parallel-Twin-powered Scrambler can take. However, in this Triumph North America video, freestyle rider Ernie Vigil (the video’s editor and co-creator) does what most Scrambler owners wish they were capable of with their new/old Trumpet.

Looking after number 1

Fri, 06 Jan 2012

There was a time when a rider’s number indicated his position from the previous season, with the ultimate accolade being the number 1 emblazoned on the front of the champion's bike. The rise of branding in MotoGP and a rider wanting to market themselves, born from Barry Sheene and his retention of no.7, saw riders decide against displaying their finish from the year before. Rossi, who on winning his numerous championships, stuck with his famous #46 in defence of his titles, instead of stamping a great number 1 on his bikes.
