HI All
Just over here from Sprint land with a question. Have an 00 Sprint ST and I think WE have reached the limits of its touring ability. Triumph have made the ST1050 less pillion friendly than the 955 so it looks like its out. The FJR is good but .. well... it has a pipe and slippers feel about it. And its expensive. So what do I do. Well I have noticed a couple of low mileages Trophies around, both 900 and 1200.
Its a bit of "forward to the past" in some respects but I am a Triumph fan and would love to stay faithful. With a Trophy I might be able to keep the ST as well.
There seems to be the odd really good example of both models around here in Oz, although both are rare in late model form.
My questions:
1.900 or 1200
2.Would the 900 be a bit well ... slow.. after the 955i.
3.How do they both compare to say an FJR (ST1300 is much to lardy for me) for touring, performance, handling etc.
4. For anyone in Oz is 11.5K for a 2001 T900, (first reg 2003) really too much even if it has quite a few extras and reasonably low kms.
5. Any problems I should look for
Tks in advance.
