The Triumph Sprint ST was a fully-faired sport-touring motorcycle made by the British company since 1999 and kept in production until 2010, when it was replaced by the Triumph Sprint GT. The bike competed in the market with the Japanese rival Honda VFR800.
In 2009, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Sprint ST, a sport-touring machine owning sports credentials, like a single-sided swingarm, an under-seat exhaust system, a six-speed gearbox, and a tuned engine for more power and torque.
The bike offered great ergonomics with its spacious seat that provided a relaxed riding position for both rider and passenger, a windscreen with excellent wind protection for long trips, a sharp-styled headlight with new lenses, and color-matched panniers for extra storage.
Underneath its full fairing, the 2009 Triumph Sprint ST had installed a 1,050cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a fuel injection system feeding the pistons, boasting 125 hp at 9,250 rpm and 104 Nm (77 lb-ft) torque at 7,500 rpm.
The bike's power was handled by a six-speed manual transmission with cable-operated wet multi-plate clutch and a final X-ring chain drive, spinning the rear wheel to a top speed of 258 kph (160 mph).
The 2009 Triumph Sprint ST was available with its bodywork painted in Pacific Blue, Phantom Black, and Graphite at an MSRP of $11,600 in the standard version, while the ABS model was sold at an MSRP of $12,400.
