Not if you got it at the right price, nothing wrong with the bike as it is now.

No idea when they'll arrive, as they haven't been officially announced yet. I would expect them to be available either later this year or early next year.

OK, come to the front door. Can you bring the syringe over, with a bit of tube if you have it?

There's a lot of Tiger rumours, including a 675cc Tiger Cub. The new Sprints are definitely coming along soon and MCN had photos of both new models last week. There's been no spy shots so far of a new Tiger. The Sprint ST was announced in September 2004, so is definitely due for a refresh. The Tiger 1050 was launched in 2007, so is relatively new.

Wasnt the engine uprated for all at the same time 955 to 1050 ?, the dealer had an older sprint for sale about 06 i think and it looked different
Tiger is a great bike as well, wouldnt be upset if i ended up with one of them.

Yes, the Tiger went from 955 to 1050 in 2007. The salesman at Swindon Triumph reckoned that a lot of people who took out both the Sprint and the Tiger for test rides were coming back and saying that they preferred the Tiger. I didn't bother test riding them and just went for the Tiger.

Thats exactly what the salesman told me at pure triumph in brum, slight cynical side of me wonders if this is sales talk for we wanna shift more tigers
