2002 - 2004 Triumph SPRINT ST 955iEdit
The engine changes offer even more of the long-legged performance the Sprint ST is renowned for. The new 120 hp (89.5 Kw) powerplant is identical to the new 955cc three-cylinder engine fitted to the new Speed Triple and Sprint RS. Employing highpressure die-cast crankcases for both strength and lightness, the DOHC 12-valve liquid-cooled engine’s new cylinder head utilizes 1mm larger inlet valves and 1mm smaller exhaust valves, set at a narrower included angle.
