Initially, the competition models of the Tiger 100 range were not officially available in the UK, the majority of the early ones being exported to the USA for racing. The initial TR5A/ C model was replaced in 1962 by the T100S/ C Tiger 100 Competition Trophy. In 1966 the model name was changed to the more recognisable T100C, and in 1968 the Tiger name was changed to Trophy 500. Over the 10 years the model was available it underwent a number of developments, not least to the frame. Twin upswept exhausts were introduced in 1966 and a twin leading shoe front brake was fitted from 1969.
This 1968 Triumph T100S was purchased by the current vendor in 1988 as part of his Triumph collection. In his ownership, some restoration to a reasonable standard has been carried out and it's been used for a short time, until recent years. Some light recommissioning and a general check-over is recommended before putting it back on the road. The T100S is being offered complete with the first issue V5C and one key.
