The Legend was the price leader for Triumph for a few years. It was a plain Thunderbird, with a lower seat. The engine was black, but in the same state of tune as the Thunderbird and the Adventurer. The Legend and the Adventurer were killed after 2001, the Thunderbird after 2003, and the Thunderbird after 2004. The modular triple (and four) were the only engines Triumph produced until the T595/T509 in 1997.

Triumph Rain Man reporting.

It's not hard at all, and you can do it with Triumph parts and still be under full warrantee.

I still have and love my '99 Thunderbird even though I just bought an '04 BMW R1150R (Shhhhh! don't tell the wife, maybe she'll forget the Triumph is out in the garage) It's a great bike but could use just a little more oomph, maybe some intake manifolds from the speed trip and some aftermarket exhuast........

I still get more comments on the Triumph than on the beemer.
