The Triton motorcycle first appeared in the late 1960s and early 1970s and was a hybrid of a Triumph engine mounted in a Norton 'featherbed' frame
These bikes were not available from a main dealship but were kit build projects to complete at home, however some bike shops offered a full build service if required
Dresda Autos began making bespoke frames for these bikes using revised geometry for racing, becoming known as Dresda Tritons and are sought after today
This example has been built using a Dresda-modified 1955 Norton frame housing a 1960 750cc 34bhp Triumph Thunderbird engine
It features a modern ignition system and retro-modern gauges
Not ridden since being built and some small finishing touches and recommisioning required
Supplied with a current V5C and file containing parts reciepts and build information
UK-registered, MOT and tax exempt
