Triumph is one of the most iconic and revered names in the history of motorcycling. Established in Coventry in 1885, by the start of the 1900s the company had made its first motorcycle beginning a continuous run of production under various ownership until its eventual closure in 1983. In 1937 the Edward Turner-designed Speed Twin was released launching a range of Triumph vertical-twins that went on to epitomise British motorcycles in the post-war years. The 3-cylinder Trident launched in the late 1960s was Triumph's last ‘hurrah’ before the entire British bike industry collapsed in the 1970s. In the early 1980s, Triumph went into receivership but after a few years of inactivity, British businessman John Bloor bought the name and manufacturing rights, re-starting bike production in the early 1990s. They are now re-established as one of the world’s most desirable and best-selling motorcycle brands and have cleverly revived some of the classic model names and engine layouts from the 1950/60s.
This rare Adventurer 885cc triple was bought by the vendor whilst he was working in the Netherlands who upon his return home registered it on plate number ‘MT02 AVZ’. Supplied from new with an official Triumph accessory centre stand it is still fitted with its original speedo reading just 1,680km (1,050 miles) but included is a brand-new MPH speedo that a new owner could fit if required. Not run for a while it will need some recommissioning before use and comes together with its original bill of sale, some receipts, both keys and a current V5C.
