TRIUMPH Adventurer 900 (1999-2000) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 1999, the British motorcycle maker released the Triumph Adventurer 900, a cruiser-looking machine that debuted in 1996 at the Hinckley factory in Leicestershire, England. The bike took its name from the 1970s 500cc parallel-twin trial bike.

Over its production time, the bike was unchanged and packed the same visual, technical, and performance specifications as the first model, without any significant modifications whatsoever.

In the visual department, the bike was equipped with a large round headlight, a large radiator, a one-piece dual seat, a three-into-two exhaust system with megaphone-shaped silencers, and lightweight wire-spoke wheels.

The bike was built around a steel frame with a 43 mm telescopic fork on the front and a single shock absorber on the rear, providing optimum suspension performance and handling capabilities.

In the braking department, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 320 mm discs coupled to two-piston calipers on the front and a 285 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear, delivering optimum stopping power.

In the performance department, the 1999 Triumph Adventurer 900 had installed underneath its fuel tank an 885cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with three Mikuni carburetors in charge, delivering 69 hp with a peak force at 8,000 rpm and 72 Nm (53 lb-ft) torque at 4,800 rpm.

With a dry weight of 220 kg (496 lbs) and a six-speed manual transmission with a final chain drive, the machine reached a top speed of 192 kph (119 mph).
