Triumph Thunderbird description
The Thunderbird Sport promises a great deal with its classic flat track styling emphasised by its striking colour options and finished to perfection with its pair of reverse cone silencers stacked one above the other on the right-hand side. It lives up to that promise thanks to a chassis which has been described by many testers as the best handling of a Hinckley Triumph aside from the supersport T500 series. Compared with the Thunderbird from which the Sport is derived, the suspension has a longer travel, the wheels front and rear are a sportier 17 inch diameter (compared with 18 and 16 inches front and rear) and the front brake is uprated to twin disc specification from single disc. In addition, to help riders take advantage of the enhanced ability of the cycle parts, the engine is upgraded over the Thunderbird's to produce 83PS (82bhp) and 76Nm (56lb.ft) compared with 70PS (69bhp) and 72Nm (53lb.ft).
KEY FEATURES Engine: Proven 885 liquid-cooled 3-cylinder engine with DOHC, 12 valves, modified from the Thunderbird. Low maintenance bucket and shim valve train.

Digital electronic ignition for precise combustion control. Smooth shifting 6-speed transmission to maximize engine performance. Stainless steel exhaust headers with bright chrome finish for durability and good looks.
