Triumph Sprint GT 2011

While the sprint st it can be argued lent towards the Sport side of the Sport/Tourer catagory , the 2011 sprint GT seems more inclined to the touring side of the equation.

Available in Australia in September

Note the side exhaust , and perhaps a flatter seat for the pillion. The top box , not pictured , is Capable of carrying two full sized helmets, The GT’s topbox has the benefit of a built in 12 volt power socket that allows the recharging of electrical items such as mobile phones and notebook computers

 

The GT features newly-styled and better performing reflector headlights, offering improved distribution of light over the previous ST’s projector type units.

Hmmmmmm

Just tinkering around the edges really hay ?

lights would be good

 I wonder if those lights can be added to the sprint. Replacing the sprint st lights would be great. Definetly looks like a goer for riders with Pillions . The seat is lower and less angled for pillions and the top box is shaped for the pillion . Only comes in blue and silver though. 

Wouldn't mind ripping off the lights though from this one , and the metallic tank from the '09 sprint. 

It might be possible to

It might be possible to switch lights, although i think you would need to change the top fairing as well... wait and see.... Dont you like not seeing around corners at night K8?
