2013 Triumph Sprint GT
Equally capable of crossing continents or taking on a track day, the Sprint is one of those rare contradictions, a compromise without compromise.
Triumph’s addictive 1050cc triple has been tuned to deliver 127PS, with seamless drive from low rpm. Striking details like the single-sided swingarm and aerodynamic three headlight cockpit give the Sprint its distinctive sporting look.
Sprint GT. All round entertainment.With emphasis on the ‘touring’ aspect of ‘sports touring’, the Sprint GT lives up to its ‘Grand Tourer’ tag while keeping its edge. It offers a unique proposition of performance, practicality and price. Performance from the uprated 1050cc triple with 130PS on hand. Practicality – the GT’s byword – with 117 litres of luggage, ABS brakes, underseat u-lock storage space, built in rack and grab handle, and a 200 mile fuel range. Price? No one comes close.
Sprint GT. For all the roads ahead.
