The TR6 was developed by Triumph for the US-market in the late 1950s and remained in production until 1973
Steve McQueen was a big fan of the model and famously rode one in the 1964 ISDT
This restored, matching numbers example is presented in very good overall condition
Last of the pre 'oil-in-frame' models
The 'P' on the frame/ engine number suggests it was built for the Police who used these models extensively in period
Restored by its previous owner with a full engine rebuild that included new pistons, rings, bearings, new clutch, two-action oil pump, new Amal carburettor, new rims and spokes with quick release hubs
Very little use since the restoration so will require running in and possibly some light recommissioning before use
UK-registered from new and complete with current V5C, as well as a small history file with some old V5s and emails from previous owner
Great addition to any British classic bike Collection
