Launched in 1995, the Triumph Thunderbird 900 was styled to create the impression of an air-cooled triple combustion chamber although the radiator up front shows it is clearly a liquid-cooled machine.[1] Fed by three 36 mm flat slide carburettors, the engine was lively and could cope easily with all riding styles. The swinging arm was upgraded to an oval section in 1996; in 1997 chromed plastic radiator end covers and grill were provided as standard along with chromed engine cases. In 1998 a 'king and queen' seat was added as an option, Several variants were produced, namely the Triumph Legend TT, Triumph Adventurer 900 and the Triumph Thunderbird 900 "classic" and then the Triumph Thunderbird Sport, which produced {{convert|82|bhp|abbr=on}}, had a second front disc added, and a six-speed gearbox. Engines are the same 885cc triples. The Thunderbird was produced until 2003 and the Thunderbird Sport until 2004.[2] Triumph Thunderbird SportIntroduced in late 1997, this was a more sporting version of the Thunderbird 900 with power increased to {{convert|82|hp|abbr=on}} @ 8,500 with 36mm flat side Keihin cv carbs and six-speed gearbox. Also included was slightly revised styling, including a 'cheese grater' air filter,twin disc front brakes and fully adjustable sports suspension, added to this were the twin silencers on the one side. Its styling was intended to recall the early 1970s Triumph X-75 Hurricane. The six-speed gearbox was used on all later variants of the Thunderbird along with Keihin carburettors. The earlier Mikuni carburettors initially suffered from premature needle and jet wear in its first year of release; this was rectified with a factory recall soon after. All later Thunderbirds with the {{convert|150|mph|abbr=on}} speedometer and Keihin carburettors should have six speed gearboxes fitted along with chrome engine cases. Media AppearancesUpon its introduction, the Triumph Thunderbird (actually Triumph Tiger) received prominent press coverage due to its use by then- highly popular actress Pamela Anderson in her film, Barb Wire.[3] Other prominent media appearances were by Hugh Laurie in British film, Maybe Baby[3] and, with a sidecar, in the BBC TV cookery series Two Fat Ladies.[4] See also
