    Hi out there, Any body know if standard thunderbird handle bars would fit on the Triumph Adventurer 1996 model without cable shorting, as the bars on the Adventurer are to high.

    Hello and welcome. I don't know exactly but if you look up the specifications for both bars that should at least give you an idea mate :)

    Welcome to the family. Great steed you have there. I do like those colours. The cables you could reroute them to make them fit. But if you really want the bars then the cables are not all that expensive you could even go for nice braided ones to make the steed stand out. Do hope you get sorted soon.
    Regards & Ride Safe.
    Joe.

    Hello Joe, Hopefully the new lower bars (thunderbird ones) will arrive today so will try and fit them this weekend, but as you know there is not the same rush with lockdown thingee.

    New bars arrived today, now fitted by me so not to difficult and no need to adjust the cables, chuffed with the difference they make.
