Triumph had joined the BSA group in 1953 but they kept up a fierce rivalry until they began to share designs in the late 1960s. The T25SS was Triumph's street/scrambler model, a popular style in the USA, and was launched to replace the Tiger Cub. The bike was essentially the same as the BSA B25 and was built in Small Heath rather than at Meriden.

This T25SS Blazer has been part of Richard Darby's collection for the last few years. Richard, who sadly passed away in 2023, was a well-respected character in classic restoration and racing circles, mainly as the proprietor of 3D Motorcycles. Regarded as one of the world's best restorers of classic Triumph motorcycles, Richard was respected by his many customers and friends in the UK and around the world and will be sorely missed. He not only specialised in repairing and modifying Triumphs but raced them himself and sponsored many riders over the years on bikes he had prepared. Richard being a Triumph man would have only wanted the Triumph badged version. Repatriated from the USA a few years ago and still in original and authentic condition, it is fitted with Boyer Electronic ignition. Last run around 3 years ago, it will need recommissioning before use and comes with a V5C.
