Triumph Sprint Rs
The Triumph Sprint Rs has a top speed of approximately 225 km/h, produces 104 hp and weighs 215 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
Triumph Sprint RS, 1999 yılında Sprint ST'nin bir sport-touring türevi olarak tanıtıldı ve aynı 955cc sıralı üç silindirli motoru paylaştı, ancak daha agresif, spor odaklı bir duruş ve stile sahip. Doğrudan spor bisikletleri ile daha konfor odaklı Sprint ST arasında bir orta yol olarak konumlandırıldı ve bazı tur yetenekleri ile sportif performans isteyen sürücülere hitap etti. Prodüksiyon 2004 yılına kadar sürdü ve Triumph'un modern üç silindirli döneminin en karizmatik ifadelerinden biri olarak hatırlanıyor.

Alıcıların Bilmesi Gerekenler
Watch the Coolant Hoses
Older Sprint RS models (1999-2004) are known for deteriorating coolant hoses and water pump seals — always inspect these before buying. A pre-purchase coolant system check can save you hundreds in repairs.
Strong Resale Stability
The Sprint RS holds its value reasonably well in the used sport-tourer market due to its loyal Triumph following and relatively low production numbers. Well-maintained examples with service history command noticeably higher prices.
Unique Triple Engine Character
The 955cc inline-triple engine delivers a distinctive torque curve that outperforms comparable four-cylinder rivals in mid-range pull, making it genuinely versatile for both commuting and longer tours. This engine is considered one of Triumph's most charismatic and reliable units from that era.
Yıllara Göre Nesiller ve Özellikler
955cc sıralı üçlü, tek taraflı salıncak kolu, yarıştan ilham alan kaporta, ters çevrilmiş çatallar, daha sportif Sprint varyantı olarak tanıtıldı.
"Spor bisikletleri sıkıcı yapan üçlü."
Bu 955 üçlü 4.000 rpm'den bir yük treni gibi çekiyor ve bunu yaparken kesinlikle pis geliyor - hiçbir Japon bu egzoz notasına yaklaşamaz. Üç yıl boyunca, çoğunlukla A-yollarda ve ara sıra pist günlerinde olmak üzere 18.000 mil koştum ve şasi hiçbir zaman derinliğini kaybetmedi; USD çatalları iyi sönümlendi ve tek taraflı salıncak sadece bir gösteri parçası değil. Dürüst zayıflıklar: Kaporta, 100 mil/saatin üzerinde ciddi miktarda rüzgarın göğsünüze çarpmasına izin veriyor, yakıt ikmali kasabada can sıkıcı bir şekilde yükseliyor ve erken dönem bisikletlerinin hizmetleri atladıysanız kam zinciri gerginleri yeme gibi kötü bir alışkanlığı vardı. Parça mevcudiyeti artık sıkılaşıyor, ve Triumph bayi ağı her zaman düzensizdi - satın almadan önce bunun için bütçe ayırın.

"A characterful, rewarding buy if you choose carefully and budget wisely."
$2,500-$5,500 usedThe Sprint RS is one of Triumph's genuinely overlooked gems from the early 2000s. That 955cc triple pulls like a train from 3,000rpm and sounds absolutely savage with an aftermarket can — it's the kind of engine that makes you forget modern bikes exist. Handling is sorted too; the RSs got better suspension geometry than the standard Sprint ST, and it shows through sweeping A-roads where it feels planted and confidence-inspiring rather than nervous. That said, buy with your eyes open. These are 20-plus-year-old bikes now, and the fuel injection mapping on early models was notoriously flat below 4,000rpm — annoying in traffic. Cooling fans fail silently, rectifiers fry and kill batteries overnight, and fork seals on unmaintained examples will be weeping. Budget £300-400 immediately for consumables regardless of what the seller tells you. Service history matters enormously here — find a fastidious previous owner or walk away.
