Engineered by Triumph for the sport touring motorcycle segment, the 1998 Triumph Sprint Executive features a 885 cc (54 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 95 HP (69.3 kW) at 8,600 rpm while maximum torque reaches 80 Nm (59 lb-ft) at 8,600 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 107.3 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Sprint Executive measures 215 kg (474 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.44 HP/kg (2.26 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance.
