  • The last of the true verticle-cylinder Triumph Tridents

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, thus launching a range of Triumph twins that went on to epitomize British motorcycles in the post-war years. The 3-cylinder 750cc Trident was essentially one and a half 500cc twins and proved to be the last success story for the company, with the bike going on to dominate the early years of the Formula 750 race series. The 1974 T150V was the last of the vertical cylinder Tridents and featured a five-speed gearbox but still with the lever on the traditional right-hand side for British bikes. According to its accompanying V5C Registration Document, this T150V had just one previous keeper prior to entering the current (sadly deceased) ownership in 1979. Said to be in original and authentic condition, the Triumph has been dry stored in a garage as part of a small collection of 1960s and 1970s British bikes. Not run for a few years, it will need recommissioning and comes supplied with a current V5C.
