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 features a five-speed gearbox. This model has spent most of its life in the USA and was restored in 2006 to a good degree of originality, being repatriated in 2018 by the current owner. Part of a private collection of 1970s Superbikes it has been run and ridden regularly and looks stunning in its Black and Gold finish with plenty of chrome and aluminium on show. The bike was overhauled in August 2021 by 3D Motorcycles at a cost of £2,083 including fitting a Boyer Ignition kit, carb rebuild and a new head gasket to cure a slight leak. It comes supplied with a few receipts, proof of official import, a copy of the California Title and a current V5C.
