Triumph Introduces the 2011 Sprint GT

Five years after Triumph introduced the popular 1050cc Sprint ST sports touring bike, the British OEM has introduced a new model with more emphasis on the touring: the Triumph Sprint GT.
“The motorcycle market continues to become more refined, which calls for manufacturers to evolve our product lines to provide what customers are demanding,” said Jim Callahan, North American marketing manager for Triumph Motorcycles. “The Sprint GT blends all of the great performance and style of the Sprint ST with some additional comfort and storage space that sport touring riders are looking for.”
The GT features a newly styled and better performing front fairing, which has been restyled to give a sharper and more contemporary look while retaining the distinctive three-light Sprint design. In the cockpit, riders will find a comprehensive three dial instrument panel with a large, traditional analogue speedometer and tachometer while the third dial hosts the readout for the onboard computer where the rider can scroll through fuel consumption, range-to-empty, journey time, average speed and clock functions.
Performance is handled by an updated version of Triumph’s 1050cc triple. First introduced in the 2005 Sprint ST, the latest incarnation has been updated to deliver increased power, torque and usability.
Priced at $13,199, the Sprint GT will be available in U.S. dealerships this fall as early release 2011 models.
