The Sprint ST houses a fantastic 1050cc fuel injected three-cylinder engine, the very essence of what makes a Triumph special. The engine has huge reserves of torque and horsepower. Peak power is an impressive 125bhp at 9250rpm while peak torque of 77ft.lbf arrives at just 7500rpm. Enhancing the engine is a smooth six-speed gearbox and clutch fitted with an anti-backlash gear. The Sprint ST comes with Triumph’s Keihin ECU offering sophisticated mapping for quicker starting, cleaner running and fuel economic engine.
Engine
The supportive, spacious seat and relaxed rider and passenger ergonomics make for great comfort on long distance trips.
Seat
The Sprint ST screen gives great wind protection for those long journeys without obscuring your view around town.
Screen
Sharp styling without compromise; the Sprint ST uses new lenses in the headlight projectors to offer a superb distribution of light.
Headlights
Color matched, factory designed, waterproof hard bags are fitted as standard and lockable with the bike’s ignition key. To further increase carrying capacity you can add a matching top box from Triumph’s wide range of accessories.
Luggage
Triumph’s Antilock Braking System has been carefully designed to boost control under hard braking, working on both wheels independently. This unobtrusive system retains all the sensations of riding, operating at 100 calculations per second to sense the precise moment the wheel is about to lock up, then preventing it from doing so.  The system has been specifically tailored to the Sprint ST, with painstaking calibration over many months to ensure optimum braking performance.
