In 1998, the Brits released the Triumph Adventurer 900, a cruiser-looking machine that debuted in 1996 at the Hinckley factory in Leicestershire, England. The bike continued production until 2001 without any significant modifications.
The 1998 machine was in its third year of production and packed the same performance, visual, and technical specifications as previous models. In addition, the bike packed the same engine as the Thunderbird 900 as well as the frame, front fork, rear shock, wheels, and brakes.
The Adventurer model was one of the best-selling bikes in the Triumph line-up. Some notable features were represented by the large rear fender, extra chromed engine and covers, and the megaphone-shaped mufflers.
Underneath its fuel tank, the 1998 Triumph Adventurer had installed an 855cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with three Mikuni carburetors in charge, boasting 69 hp with a peak force at 8,000 rpm and 72 Nm (53 lb-ft) torque at 4,800 rpm.
The bike's power was transferred to a six-speed manual transmission with a final chain drive that spun the rear wheel to a top speed of 192 kph (119 mph).
The bike was built around a steel frame with a 43 mm telescopic fork and two 320 mm discs tied to four-piston calipers on the front and a single shock with a285 mm disc squeezed by a dual-piston caliper on the rear, delivering optimum handling and stopping power.
