TRIUMPH Adventurer 900 (2001) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Triumph Adventurer 900 was a cruiser-looking machine made by Triumph Motorcycles Ltd at the Hinckley factory in Leicestershire, England. It continued production until 2001 with several upgrades and modifications.

The bike's name came from the 1970s 500cc parallel-twin trail bike, and the engine was the same unit as on the Triumph Thunderbird. Besides the engine, the bike also shared the same steel frame, front fork, rear shock absorber, brakes, and wheels with the Thunderbird.

Compared to the Thunderbird, the Adventurer model had a raised handlebar and a single seat. It also packed several prominent features, including the large rear fender, chrome-plated engine and covers, and two megaphone-style silencers.

In 2001, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Adventurer 900, a cruiser motorcycle that debuted in 1996 and dropped from production in 2001. The 2001 model packed the same technical, visual, and performance specifications as the previous model.

It had standard features, such as a large headlight on the front, a large radiator, a one-piece dual seat, a three-into-two exhaust system with a megaphone-shaped silencer on each side, a side stand, and wire-spoke wheels.

In the performance department, the 2001 Triumph Adventurer 900 had installed underneath its fuel tank an 885cc four-stroke liquid-cooled three-cylinder engine with three Mikuni carburetors in charge, boasting 69 hp at 8,000 rpm and 72 Nm (53 lb-ft) torque at 4,800 rpm.
