Triumph Sprint 955cc Sept '03 (53)

Review
bought from a Triumph dealer, immaculate and with 1800 mile on it, i had a belly pan fitted which I think balances the styling out.Used it for 2 years as a pleasure bike and a bit of commuting and loved it. Great engine which caught a couple of Ducatis out on the trip home through Essex and the brakes were the best I have had. Wrist ache was a problem, and the roads around my home are mainly A and B roads, so a spin could turn into 3rd gear traffic processions which just got painful and boring unless I wanted to do lots of risky overtaking. Got it serviced at a main dealer and was very happy with it. Taking my teenage son on the back was a pain, you had to remove the seat hump and it had no grab rail, so the wrist ache was even worse when braking.
Sold it when I realised I was doing 129 down the main bypass without noticing and thought the whole thing was mad. Bought a commando, but that's another story!Bumped into a guy who was looking at sprints in the local Triumph dealer when I was buying an exhaust bolt that had come off- the only 'fault' it had. a quick exchange of phone numbers and he came round after work and bought it-Splendid!
Would buy another Triumph, but the bonnies are boring to ride and the Rocket is a tank and too dear for me. Shame they stopped the t'bird sport thing.

I returned to biking after 30 years and bought a Honda Varadero 125 to get me going last October (07) until I had time to take my test in July. I passed, and had bought the Triumph in readiness. It's the Sprint RS.

I decided to go for the sports/tourer style because after doing 5k miles on the Honda with its Enduro style riding position I found my lower back suffered over longer journeys.

I was pleasantly surprised with the comfort of the different riding position and have found even after 150 miles I can get off feeling good with no aches. You have to consider this when you get towards 50!

I have no experience on a big bike to compare to, but I have found the Triumph to be everything I could want in a bike. I have driven many fast cars over the years, but nothing compares to the sheer raw power as you open it up. 0-60 in under 3 seconds is a blur, then you change into 2nd gear! Oh, and 55mpg is an easily acheivable average.

I've now done over 2k miles since my test and the only problem has been the voltage regulator failed - this was a £260 bill but on a 5 year old vehicle you can't expect everything to be perfect. Otherwise, not missed a beat.
I have Avon Storms on and the grip is superb - look out for reviews on them.

Motorway riding is a breeze, country lanes sheer fun as it rolls in and out of the bends and town driving easy with a slim profile and plenty of grunt. I use it in London on a regular basis and it's never hard work.
Also, my girlfriend's happy on the back - as so many sport bikes have nothing much more than a pad for the pillion to perch on.

Great looks, great handling, great performance - just how much better can it get?

Proud to have bought British? I should say so!

Triumph Sprint 1050

Not a bad bike, but not enough to recommend it.

It's a sports tourer, with free hard luggage, so is a stable image in a solid pair of mirrors too much too ask? Or how about a 1st gear short enough for low speed stuff, or that 1-in-4 start? And does it need that snarling overrun cackle and pop, more suited to a moody Italian street-bike? Finish seems a bit flaky too.

On the plus side it's comfortable, even (err, so I'm told...) at double the national speed limit, stable, perhaps too stable, but stable none-the-less, pokey, and not at all un-pleasant to ride. Adjustable levers let you get comfy and confident. Everything's.. ..okay.

But sadly, spend a just little more elsewhere and you can have brill. Triumph addicts only? Maybe the new model is better?

Got the RS Sprint after 15 years on Harleys. Brilliant. All the mags rate it as a budget sports bike, but its much more than that. It goes like stink and handles with it. It obviously doesn't compete with the likes of the Jap offerings as far as top speed or track prowess , but do you need that? I've toured with it 2 up around Europe with throwovers and a rack and it never was fazed at all . On top of that a steady cruise up through the centre of Spain returned about 50 mpg. The only bad points was that the finish wasn't as good as Honda or BMW, but then mine had done 32000 miles in 5 years.

I decided to purchase the latest version of the Triumph Sprint ST because I was so pleased with my previous model. It could only be better again with its new 1050cc triple engine which promised more grunt and Triumph had worked very hard on the new styling which I think is fantastic with the three pipe outlet for the exhausts and the front fairing headlight concept.
I guess you could say they milked the triple theme but you can't blame them. The triple motor is still largely a virtually unique feature with the Triumphs. It was a complete refresh and virtually a new bike but still kept faith with the original concept.
The motor was much lumpier than the previous one with a hoik in the torque figures and just a bit nippier. I bought mine a late clean second-hand example before it came equipped on a special deal with the panniers included which I was glad of because like I said before I don't really like hard luggage, and in an every day situation I wouldn't really need them.
It still had the single sided swing arm which is a design feature I love and the underseat pipes gave it a skinny feel though it felt a bit longer in terms of overall dimensions. Not sure if it is but it feels it.
The seat also feels skinnier but more padded. A bit more of an uncomfortable pillion seat and rear peg position but I use it for commuting mostly in the summer and longer trips, very rarely needing a pillion perch so I'm not bothered about that aspect, plus it gets alot of attention which makes me feel proud to fly the flag.

It does under steer a bit maybe because the overall length is slightly longer but in a straight line it feels stable and keeps up with just about any other bike on the road other than some of the banzai attitude litre class sports bike riders if kept on the boil, and the noise it makes is just great, real character!

The mirrors work ok, widely spaced enough to see what is behind with a bit of help by dipping the shoulders. I'm old school I suppose so I tend to try and glance behind me when required anyway; they also contain the front indicator units.
Another thing I like about these characterful British bikes is the paint and finish; it's not fussy but excellent quality with classy decals, not the garish stuff you tend to get on Jap bikes.
The petrol consumption is a little higher but bear in mind it’s a litre+ bike. When I finally manage to get out and about abroad later this year I'm sure it'll settle down to something slightly more affordable, but we can blame the government for high MPG costs, The prices take the piss if you ask me. Fuel injection helps which is uprated from the previous model.

I've got a Triumph alarm on this one which cost a few bob but I'm assured its good quality and so far it works fine though it did drain the battery once when I left it on its
