1998 - 2001 Triumph LEGEND TTEdit
Essentially a budget version of the Thunderbird, the Legend was introduced in 1998 in two versions. The basic Legend TT had 43cm (17in) wire-spoked wheels and an extra-low seat height. The Legend Deluxe had an even lower seat, and came with two-tone paintwork. Both bikes shared the 885cc liquid-cooled triple engine of the Thunderbird, its 69 HP (51 Kw) and torque power delivery giving relatively sprightly performance.
