Sprint The 98 and later Triumphs benefited from the fitment of Keihin CV carbs, mostly eliminating the troublesome needle jet wear that the earlier bikes tended to have. Final hp figures seem to indicate similar hp to most earlier, unrestricted bikes. Best (only?) "drop-in"
kit available. Nice even power improvement. Not really fussy about main
jet selection (other than the bike loses 1 hp on either side of the
perfect, best main jet). Needle height is pretty cut and dried, with
little fiddling required from what we've seen and heard. |

You can use cams and intake boots from the Thunderbird and install them into the Legend for a +10-15hp increase.
Subject: RE: Triumph Sprint Sport 900 , 1998 Date: Mon, 2 Oct 2000 13:05:09 -0400 From: Greene_Jeff@emc.com To: factory2@ix.netcom.com Hi Marc, I have installed the kit. The Sprint now screams ( as loud as a Sprint can anyway). Thanks for making the kit. You may want to contact Jack Lilley (http://www.jacklilley.com/cart/index.htmin) the UK. They were not aware that you made a jet kit for the Triumph's. Also, some of your distributors (Tucker-Rocky) did not list the kits for the Triumphs. Thanks again, Jeff Greene |

The extension of the laboratory
for engines of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology was completed
in about 1935. Its architect was Rudolf Otto Salvisberg (1882-1940).
He had a successful career in Berlin but returned to Switzerland after
the advent of the Nazis. His architectural style was somewhat similar
to that of Erich Mendelsohn. The staircase of the laboratory is in normal
use but well preserved. Edited to the tunes of Chemical Residue by Herbie Hancock. |
