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 twins that went on to epitomize British motorcycles in the post-war years.
This 1952 5T Speed Twin, being offered at no reserve, is the sprung rear hub/tele front fork version that many consider to be the best looking of all the various models offered over the years. An interesting restoration project, all the major items appear to be in place so it will make a satisfying rebuild to either concours condition or a bike to be used on runs and rallies. The bike is supplied with a current V5C.
