Triumph Sprint description

As a lifelong sports bike owner I bought this bike because it offers the best of both worlds. I lived in Houston when I bought this bike and it was a 200 mile ride to get to any roads that were worth riding on! So I figured that at my advanced age a sport touring bike made sense. After a brief and disappointing experience with a BMW K1200LT I settled on this beautiful Triumph Spring GT. With the panniers on it makes a great tourer and with them off it is basically a sports bike capable of hanging with the big boys! Previously I had 2 Triumph Speed Triples and I love that this bike has the same engine, arguably the best motorcycle engine ever made with mountains of torque and an top end - smooth, fast and powerful. Since then my circumstances have changed and I have moved to Reno where I have the roads I was seeking on my doorstep - so the Triumph has sadly been replaced by a Ducati - which is awesome by the way! The bike has 5500 miles on it - I rode it from Daytona Beach FL to Houston when I bought it and it has been to Laguna Seca since then (guess why) Other than that it has only done local rides. The bike has never seen a drop of rain and has been kept in a garage on a battery tender and under a cover. This bike has all of the Triumph upgrades - raised screen, heated grips and Triumph tank protector. I also have a tail pack (pictured) and a magnetic tank bag which is about as much use on the Ducati at a Chocolate Tea-Pot since it has a plastic tank - I will throw these into the deal. The bike itself is as new - there is a small scratch on one of the passenger grab-rails where another bike fell on it at the dealership and the panniers (which can be lifted off like suitcases) have a couple of boot scuff marks that could be buffed out and one blemish caused by the movers that brought the bike to Reno (I know I should have ridden it but I didn't have time!) Other than that this is clean honest and very capable motorcycle that will make you grin from ear to ear. Look at my profile and bid with confidence. Any inspection or test ride welcome.

2013 Triumph Trophy Spy Photos

Wed, 22 Feb 2012

Spanish magazine Motociclismo has acquired photos of what it says will be a new 2013 Triumph Trophy 1200 sport-tourer. According to Motociclismo, the 2013 Triumph Trophy 1200 uses many of the same components as the recently launched Triumph Tiger Explorer, including its 1215cc inline Triple engine and shaft drive. The Trophy 1200 will likely also get traction control and ABS like the Tiger Explorer, as well as touring-oriented niceties such as an adjustable windscreen, heated grips, panniers and cruise control.

Triumph Tiger Explorer and Trophy SE Recalled for Throttle Position Sensor Error

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Triumph is recalling a combined total of 2,800 units of the Tiger Explorer and Trophy SE due to a problem with the electronic control unit detecting the throttle position. According to documents released by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the ECU’s detection threshold is set too tightly and it lacked proper signal filtering, causing it to prematurely detecting a deviation in the throttle butterfly position. The ECU would then activate the ride-by-wire system’s safety shutdown, closing the throttle butterly valve and cutting the fuel and ignition.
