The Triumph roadster range can boast a great offer. The Thunderbird 900, with its deliciously retro charm, is a credit to its family, which has no less than 4 other machines in the niche. We have the choice with an S version of the Thunderbird, the Legend TT, the Adventurer, and in a more sporty and characterful register, the Speed Triple. Low saddle, well presented engine, beautiful chrome and sausage exhausts, the bike really has the dog and transports us to the heyday of the English. But today, the mechanical concerns are gone. The 3 cylinder has been tuned to provide the right amount of torque at low revs. The power may seem fair for a 900 but it is not on this criterion that we judge the T-bird. Its charm is distilled without the need for arsenic. Sitting cool, driving cool to enjoy the English touch. The comfort disappoints a little by the fault of the rear shock absorber. This one works on too little travel. The turning radius could be improved during city trips. The chassis adapts very well to the capabilities of the engine. The machine brakes smoothly and holds the road with sufficient confidence.
