Sprint ST Life is full of compromises, as are many motorcycles. The Sprint ST, thankfully, doesn't have to make any. It's a sports bike that covers miles, a touring bike that carves corners with a truly usable mix of poise, power and all-round practicality.

Default Sold my VFR and bought a NEW '06 Sprint ST

update, as you can see by my Avitar, I decided against the ST. The dealer tried to HIDE some fees on the paper work and after some looking into the brake issues at Truimphrat.net I went with the ZX14.

I've had mine since May of this year and absolutely love it. The brakes are a bit spongy after some miles. It looks like it can be fixed by fitting pistons from a 675 in the Sprint calipers. The heat can be a bit at times also when its above 80 but if its below 60 out its great as it helps keep you warm. If you haven't been to Triumphrat.net go there, they know their stuff. Enjoy the bike!

shit! I just noticed you're in Traverse city! I'm in "The Soo". I've been stationed here for almost 3 years, in the Coast Guard.

How is the Triumph dealer there? I have heard mixed feelings and have been considering giving my business to the Detroit dealer, although it's a bit of a drive.



want to hook me up with a test ride on the ST? j/k
