Triumph 900 LEGEND TT 1998 - Motorcycle specifications

Tell us what you think of this 900 LEGEND TT 1998

presentation of the 900 LEGEND TT 1998

in contrast to the Speed Triple 's fiery, impulsive character, the Legend is an affordable machine, both in terms of price and handling. Its engine may not be the most expressive in the house, but its temperament is endearing. Does the power (64 horsepower) seem "right"? Not to mention the short gear ratio, which allows it to give its all with gusto. And the torque available very early on adds to the picture. Roadholding is sound, and it's easy to get the hang of. Thanks to the low seat height and large handlebars. We could forgive this "entry-level" roadster's weak rear disc, but its cousins all share this fault. Whether it's theAdventurer, Thunderbird (and Sport) or Speed Triple, they're all allergic to the rear brake; and they're all lacking in suspension comfort in the same area. Those left wanting more with the Legend will find a wide range of 3-legged roadsters at the British manufacturer's disposal.

Denis974 Model 1998

I have just acquired a Légend TT year 2001 for 1 month now. What a pleasure! Especially since it had been 20 years since I had ridden a motorcycle: very good handling, very nice engine noise and ESPECIALLY a style that changes and does not leave indifferent. WHAT A PLEASURE!
I've just got one little problem: where can I find a left-hand turn signal with its second-hand bracket? 09/03/2009 17:47 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Denis974

Ludo Legen Model 1998

I've been riding a Legend for three years now, 80,000 km on the odometer, with no major problems, six trips of over 6,000 km (in a group)! Never been handicapped by its 'low end'. Very endearing machine, I'll have a hard time parting with it. 04/14/2005 11:13 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Ludo Legen

Fred Model 1998

I fell in love with this bike: - unusual look in today's production - good torque from low revs - great sound - reasonable fuel consumption - easy customization (see Triumph catalog) 01/15/2005 23:28 Rating : 5/5 Respond to Fred
