Welcome 03cruiser!
I've had my 06 Sprint for a little over a year now and thoroughly enjoy it (12500mi). Transitioning from the upright Tiger to the forward riding position on the Sprint took a little getting used to, but after you've done a few 12 hour plus rides, you can see how it works to your benefit. At first, the suspension seemed short-traveled and harsh, but then I realized that cranking the pre-load adjustment front and back can make for a very plush and sporty ride.
The only engineering gripe I have about it is the seat removal method...two little hidden screws instead of the more common key lock or latching system. I've learned how to put the screws in in less than 1 minute, but others have spent the whole weekend and then tossed them. Relatively minor gripes on my side along with a few build quality issues, but the sheer design will leave a smile on your face after each ride.
Which model year are you looking at?
