I was looking for a Sprint when getting rid of the CBR, but couldn't find a nice one anywhere.  So got another Fazer, and very happy I did  Smile


My fantasy garage would have at least 3 Triumphs (and a repair van to follow me around).

I just love that triple. My Tiger 1050 flew once I tuned it up.

Is that the ST or the GT?

I've looked at the Sprint 1050 ST in the past and took one for a test ride (which was very nice) and I may well get one if finances pick up a bit...

Well that and it's a bit longer which might might it better for long distance riding, but not so great for riding the twisties Smile

How many miles does it have on it? One concern I've got is that wheras the Fazer only needs a major service every 24,000 miles, the ST needs one done every 12,000 and which is about £500 from what I've read, so it increases the running costs noticably.
