    Good Points: seat,shape, and sound that'll be 3 S's and the fourth is Speed


    Bad Points: Hey for a 7 year old it looks a lot better than any jap bike of the same age - but it ages


    General comments: Wanna know what a Triumph Sprint's like - Ride one, you'll buy it!! that's a promise and you won't be too far off base, by becoming the proud owner - just go through the normal checks & you'll have bugs in your teeth, from smiling while you ride.........Go your own way Bru!! the ad says it all!!

    The Triumph Sprint RS is probably the most fun I've ever had on 2 wheels. I'm hooked on Triumph...for life.

    Very usable power at all speeds. Tremendous acceleration. Super stable. Great in the curves. Looks fantastic. Excellent mileage. Very reliable.
    If you have a chance to cop one of these on the second hand market, do it!

    I bought this bike new May 2006, been to France and Spain two up. Comfortable for long distance touring, yet nibble enough for scratching at the week-ends. (solo). The RS can also carry plenty of luggage, I have a 52lt Top Box, and a 28 Lt tank bag, handles great 2 up plus all the luggage. I have been told that the RS could be a collectors bike in years to come as not a great deal of them were made. So if you have a good one as I have, hang on to it.I also have a scooter which I use in the week ...

    The Triumph Spirit RS is an aggressive sports tourer that rips. Always wanted a VFR and ended up with a Sprint RS with no regrets. Have no interests in a VFR anymore cause this bike destroys it. VFR's are only 800cc and the RS is 955 which makes it better for two up touring or even solo twistys. The wind protection is adequate for a half fairing machine. Buddies on sports bikes are stretching and squerming long before I feel uncomfortable. Great bike for you and that special someone to ...

    I'm a 30 year old college student and I've had my 2000 Triumph Sprint RS for 8 years/ Racing Yellow. I have yet to find a bike that meets my needs any better. It's my primary vehicle and gets used as a daily driver for an hour commute. I'm a bigger rider 6'2 300lbs (athletic) and I do not really fit well on a lot of bikes, especially with the low streamlined tanks and tight rearsets. The handling rivals any other sportbike for the backroad twisties. Modifications include a 2 Bros. carbon fiber c ...

    If you are looking for a sports tourer this Triumph Sprint RS is superb. I use it every weekend for my blasts and have a Triumph Legend for my daily workhorse.
    Thank you Triumph.

    I purchased my Triumph Sprint RS in Portland Oregon as my first motorcycle. I admit that it was far more powerful than I needed for a first bike, but the triple cylinder engine has such a broad powerband that it is fairly easy to learn on as long as you do not slam open the throttle. The bike is incredibly fast, I hit 155 on a straight before having to back off, but it does not scream to be thrashed all the time like a full sportbike does. Not to say I didn't thrash it from time to time. The ...

    I bought my Triumph Sprint RS after much research and deliberation.
    I spoke to a few mechanics, ST & T100 owners and the forums to see if the raves were just raves, or to justify the bike they had bought.
    I took an 03 RS for a spin and fell in love with the bike immediately.
    I am most impressed with the rideability, flexibility and powerband. The bike flys, corners, accelerates and makes a great noise to boot (Triumph carbon can).
    2up they are equally predicable and comfortable for my w ...

    Overall the Triumph Sprint RS is a very easy bike to ride considering its power and speed. The engine sounds throaty and beast-like, and the gears are as smooth as a hot knife through butter. I think the bike looks pretty good but I prefer the look of the Jap bikes, e.g Honda VFR, if I'm honest. That said, everone else loves it, so maybe I'm just used to looking at it. I am pretty annoyed about blistering on the black engine casing and on the alloys (only done 1,900 mainly dry miles) but perhaps ...

    The triple motor 955i Triumph Sprint RS is excellent from it's bark through to it's user friendliness. The gearbox is great for clutchless upshifts and with well spaced cogs it's great for short shifting or a blast, with no false neutrals found.
    Little evidence of wear and tear due to quality of finish. Bike runs on Bridgestones which give very good grip and mileage. Fuel economy is good which relates to good progress as not too many stops required.
    Mirrors are buzz free but if you are quite b ...
