All the information I have (workshop manuals, handbook, magazine articles etc) suggests that from the very first 900 Tridents(91-2) to the final 98 Sprint Sports and Executives, the power output remained the same.
The figures I have are 98PS(97BHP)@9000RPM,
The torque figures are 83Nm(61LB/FT)@6500RPM
These figures do seem to vary a little bit depending on where you read them, however, but you can't always believe power/torque figures anyway.
As the owner of a 1993 Sprint, I can vouch for the fact that it has more than enough low end torque and top end power for any sane person on British roads. My only real complaint with my bike is that it is a heavy bike, with the weight carried high up, which makes it a handful when manhandling it out of the drive,and when doing u-turns etc.(once moving at more than a couple of MPH, it's fine) Try this website for specs. http://www.triumphsantacruz.com/models/1998/
