Bon, d'autres nouvelles, provenant d'un site anglais : Dailymotos.com ...
Sachant que j'attendais des news de la ST 2007, j'avoue que les infos concernent cette bécane tout particulièrement (sorry le copié collé est en anglais
)
The Sprint ST is a sports bike that covers distance in absolute comfort, a touring bike that carves corners effortlessly, with a truly usable mix of poise, power and practicality.
Customer research played a key role in shaping the ST and Triumph has continued to analyse market trends and owner feedback to ensure this model continues to meet the needs of the discerning sports touring rider.
For 2007 the balance tips firmly in favour of touring with a number of thoughtful enhancements. The seat has been re-profiled to make it more comfortable and easier to straddle at standstill. The handlebars too, have been altered. Now higher and further back, they’ve been tailored to give a more relaxed riding position. The high screen, which was previously available as an accessory option also now comes fitted as standard, as do Triumph’s latest generation panniers. These factory-designed, specialist-made panniers are fully waterproof, durable, easy to fit yet quickly detachable and operate via a single key for panniers and ignition.
Although the engine is unchanged, for good reason, the 2007 ST comes with Triumph’s second generation Keihin Engine Control Unit, with more sophisticated mapping for quicker starting, cleaner running and better fuel economy.
Two new colour options join Caspian Blue in 2007, Phantom Black and Tornado Red. All three are available for both the standard and popular ABS models and will be available from January 2007.
En gros : amélioration de la selle pour plus de confort,
Changement de la géométrie du guidon qui sera légèrement plus haut et plus en arrière pour une position plus GT
Bulle haute standard (j'espère que ça va pas trop détériorer la ligne ...
)
Pas de grand changement moteur si ce n'est une nouvelle cartographie pour un meilleur démarrage, un rendement plus écologique et une économie d'énergie
Hi hi et l'autre détail : 2 nouvelles couleurs (yesssssss !) un Rouge Tornado et .... un Black Phantom ...
Bah y'a plus qu'à espérer que ce ne soit pas que des rumeurs ...
D'après l'article : dispo en janvier 2007 ...
