Triumph has updated its Sprint sport touring platform for the 2011 model year, and the bike seems to favor the touring side of the sport touring relationship a little more heavily than before. The 1050cc inline-triple powerplant puts out five more horsepower than before, now totaling 130 horses. Standard equipment includes anti-lock brakes, 8.2-gallon saddlebags and a 12-volt power port. Heated grips, a taller windscreen, gel seats and a large top case for additional storage are available and desirable options.

The 2011 bike will be recognizable due to its smoother fairing, new lighting up front and the single low-mount exhaust that replaces the previous underseat system. The 2011 Triumph Sprint will carry a $13,199 starting price when it hits dealerships this fall. Check it out for yourself in our high-res image gallery below.
