The Tiger 90 was a development of the Twenty-one / 3TA model, being a much sportier design in an attempt to capture more of the youth market. It was introduced with the bikini fairing and slim mudguard (as opposed to the bathtub and roman helmet of the 3TA), and had high-compression pistons to increase the power to that of the 5TA.

Production of the T90 started with the 1963 model year and Frame Number H29733 on the 24th September 1962 (the machine does still survive).

The bikini fairing was dropped in 1964 and the bike was styled more like the 650cc Bonneville. Then in 1966 the electrics were changed to 12V with Zener diode regulation.

The machine continued to be developed until its demise in 1968 when the 250cc machines began to rival the bike's performance - 250cc machines were cheaper to tax and insure whereas the 350cc models were in the same tax bracket as the 500cc models.
