2012 Triumph Sprint GT Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2012 Triumph Sprint GT sport touring motorcycle, Triumph features a 1050 cc (64.1 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 130 HP (94.9 kW) at 9,200 rpm while maximum torque reaches 108 Nm (79.7 lb-ft) at 6,300 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 123.8 HP per liter and a 2,900 rpm working window between peak torque (6,300 rpm) and peak power (9,200 rpm), 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 GT measures 265 kg (584 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.49 HP/kg (2.04 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 815 mm (32.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,537 mm (60.5 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 20-liter (5.3 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.88 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 340 km (211 miles) between fill-ups.
