2006 Triumph Sprint ST Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Positioned in Triumph's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2006 Triumph Sprint ST features a 1050 cc (64.1 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 125 HP (91.2 kW) at 9,235 rpm while maximum torque reaches 104 Nm (76.7 lb-ft) at 5,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 119 HP per liter and a 4,235 rpm working window between peak torque (5,000 rpm) and peak power (9,235 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 ST measures 210 kg (463 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.6 HP/kg (1.68 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,457 mm (57.4 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 20-liter (5.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
