As soon as the Thunderbird appeared in 1995, Triumph
dealers, especially in America, asked for a custom version. Introduced in 1996,
the Adventurer used an almost identical basic engine and chassis package to the
Thunderbird, but with: slight cruiser hint to the styling.
The 885cc
liquid-cooled triple produces 51kW (69bhp), with torquey power delivery. The
Triumph steel-tube spine frame works well, while conventional forks and rear
monoshock suspension supply soft, plush damping. A 48cm (19in) front wheel and
high handlebars give the essential cruiser outline, although the Adventurer is
still very much a Triumph in looks and performance. Factory accessories allow
extensive customization.
