The maintenance schedule in the Download section indicates oil change intervals for "pre 2001" Sprint as 6,000 miles (or 10,000 kms). Is that correct?

It's the same for 2002's, as per the Service Manual and user's guide. Remember Triumph recommends full or semi-synthetic. There is plenty of data to support extended service intervals with synthetics. A guy on the Concours list, those guys really flog their scoots, who did serious oil analysis studies who claimed 10K+ with nothing in the oil to show any damage. Personally, I'll stick with 6K. Do what makes ya happy.
