Built alongside the modern Trident, the Triumph Thunderbird offered by John Bloor’s Triumph Motorcycles, Ltd. of Hinckley was unashamedly retro in styling, harking back to the glory days of the original T-birds of the 1950s and 1960s. Made between 1995 and 2004, the Thunderbird was powered by a liquid-cooled triple displacing 885cc and developing 68 bhp at 8000 rpm giving effortless performance and is a classic cruiser capable of meeting the best Harley-Davidson Sportsters head on. The naked Thunderbird used three 36mm flat slide carburetors and early versions featured a five-speed gearbox with chain drive and plenty of chrome embellishments, along with two-tone paintwork and wire wheels.
