Triumph Sprint Gt 1050

The Triumph Sprint Gt 1050 has a top speed of 225 km/h, produces 128 hp and weighs 236 kg. Motoryk rates it 8/10.

La Triumph Sprint GT 1050 a été introduite en 2010 en tant qu'évolution sportive de la Sprint ST, avec une position de conduite plus droite, des sacoches intégrées et un châssis révisé pour un confort sur de longues distances. Construit autour du triple moteur en ligne de 1050 cm3 éprouvé de Triumph, il a été conçu pour concurrencer dans le segment du sport-touring des motos telles que la Honda VFR800 et la Kawasaki Versys. Il est resté en production jusqu'en 2016, ce qui lui a valu des éloges pour son équilibre entre performances et capacité de tournée, mais il a finalement été abandonné au fur et à mesure que la gamme Tiger s'étendait pour répondre aux besoins du marché des voyages d'aventure.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir

⚙️

Inspect the Throttle Bodies

The Sprint GT 1050 can develop rough idling or stuttering due to throttle body synchronization drift over time. Always request a recent throttle body sync service or budget for one at purchase.

💰

Stable Resale Value

The Sprint GT holds its value reasonably well in the sport-touring segment due to its relatively low production numbers and strong brand loyalty. A well-maintained example with luggage commands a noticeable premium over stripped versions.

🔧

Check Coolant Hose Condition

Some owners report coolant hose deterioration and minor weeping leaks around the 30,000–40,000 mile mark, particularly on earlier models. Inspecting hose condition and the expansion tank cap before buying can save a costly surprise.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion

8.0/10
Idéal pour
Touring-minded riders wanting sporty weekend ability

"An underrated all-rounder that punches well above its used price."

$5,500-$9,000 used

The Sprint GT is one of those bikes that gets unfairly overlooked because it sits between categories — not quite a full tourer, not quite a sportsbike. That actually works in your favour as a used buyer because prices stay sensible while the bike itself is genuinely excellent. The 1050 triple is the real story here — smooth, characterful, and pulls hard from anywhere in the rev range. Long motorway stints feel effortless, and it handles far better than its weight suggests. That said, go in with eyes open. Check the luggage fitment carefully — the panniers and their mounts have a reputation for cracking if previous owners weren't gentle. The throttle bodies need periodic balancing or you'll get a rough idle that'll drive you mental. Early models had some fuelling hesitation low down; a Power Commander or ECU remap largely sorts it. Also budget for tyres — it eats the rear if you're pressing on regularly. Overall though, for the money you'll spend on a clean used example, it's a tremendous all-rounder that'll do track days in the morning and camping trips at the weekend.
