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.

As soon as the snow is gone you'll get a picture!
The "show us your bike" thread was great at the FZ6s.

I would LOVE to get a hold of an RS to wrench on. It wouldn't look much like that when I was done with it. But I could definately have some fun.

Here's my 2008 with ABS in Pacific Blue. I bought it new in May and have 6,300 miles on it now. I love this bike!

^^Very nice specimen. The blue color is my favorite. I'd love to try a ST out for a 4 day weekend. They look like great bikes.

Wow , only if they put in USD forks in there otherwise that is a perfect piece of machinery. How does the stock suspension perform?

I'm happy with the stock suspension. Everyone complains that it's too soft, but the Sprint sure can handle! Some upgrade to Ohlins or other brands for shocks, but I have mine set up for long distance comfort. Notice the higher screen and bar risers!

I've gotten as high as 52 MPG on the highway, but most of my cruising around gets mid-40's. Commuting I'll get low 40's, but I'm not the lightest on the throttle either!

Heres my new (to me) 2005 Sprint ST! Traded in my ZZR-600 for it about a month ago. Has about 15,000 km on it (9,000 miles), all three OEM bags and is in excellent condition!





Sorry for the crappy pics...cant really bring the bike outside until March or April

Oh..and I removed the OEM topcase, as I'll be replacing it with my own GIVI.

I have ridden an 08 Sprint at a Triumph demo day, and I gotta say, I LOOOOVE this bike, and I'm so happy to finally own one! The 1050 triple is an AMAZING motor!
