Triumph, established in Coventry in 1885, made its first motorcycle in the early 1900s, beginning a continuous run of production under various owners until its closure in 1983, eventually enjoying a rebirth in the early 1990s. Triumph was actually taken over by the BSA group in 1953, however, the two companies kept up a fierce rivalry until they began to share designs in the late 1960s in an effort to ward off the onslaught of the Japanese manufacturers. The TR25W Trophy was Triumph's street/scrambler model, a style that was popular in the USA and was launched to replace the Tiger Cub. The bike was based on the BSA B25 range and was built at the Small Heath BSA plant rather than at Triumph’s Meriden factory.

This 1967 Trophy, from a deceased estate, was first registered in the UK in 1980, possibly spending its early years in the USA where most of Triumph’s production was exported to at the time. Bought by the enthusiast owner in 1981, it has been stored in a dry garage together with his small collection of mainly 1960s and 1970s Triumphs and BSAs. Restored, keeping a good degree of originality, the Trophy has been stood for a number of years and will therefore require some level of recommissioning. It is being offered with a current V5C.
