Triumph Sprint 900

The Triumph Sprint 900 is a sport touring motorcycle manufactured by Triumph from 1991–1998 at their factory in Hinkley, Leicestershire. Styled by Rod Skiver, the Sprint was powered by an 885 cc (54.0 cu in) liquid-cooled, inline-three four stroke engine. The engine was a similar triple to that in the Triumph Trident 900[2]and many of the cycle parts were interchangeable with the Trident.

Reception

One review declared that the Sprint was, "basically a Trident 900 with a cockpit fairing, but that didn't prevent it being a solid workhorse tourer".[4]

gollark: I suppose in theory I *could* track those, but don't.
gollark: Well, they aren't.
gollark: They don't *do* anything.
gollark: <@151391317740486657> Why would I track those?
gollark: I think this UI actually looks somewhat sensible.
