    G'day All, thanks for the welcome. Just joined the forum, hopefully purchasing (new to me, Daytona possibly Sprint) very near future. I'm looking at a 2004 or 2005 Daytona 955i OR Sprint ST similar year. Confusion...I can see Daytona's are 955i and then some Sprint are 955i and some are 1050.
    1st question, Did they overlap the years, when did Daytona's stop and Sprint St start?
    What difference is there between a Daytona 2004 955i and a 2004 Sprint ST 955i ?
    The Daytona 2004 I'm looking at has just over 10k kms
    The Sprint ST 2004 has 24K kms are there any major service or specific issues I should keep an eye out for? or services or upgrades/ mods that are good value to already be installed?
    The Sprint has stock exhaust and panniers, my first task would be installing hi rise exhaust to expose rear wheel (I love the SSS, no point covering it up, do I have to get exhaust guy to make up new high rise pipe or is there a Triumph part off the shelf? (Sorry lot of questions, but I need to make a decision real soon before they gone) Thanks in advance Paul
