In 500cc and 650cc capacity, the T100 was undoubtedly the UK's most popular twin. The sweeter running half-litre models tended to be rather overshadowed following the introduction of the ultra-successful 650cc Bonneville. During their lifespan the 500cc Speed Twin and Tiger 100 were subject to a number of mechanical updates, although it is fair to say that the later enclosure of the bike's rear end was not Triumph's most popular addition at the time, but seen as desirable to own now, if you can find them complete.
This mid-1950s Triumph T100 has formed part of a collection of motorcycles that was purchased many years ago by the late owner. It was used around the yard when he first got it, however, in later years it has been displayed with the other machines offered in the sale. There are no documents with this lot and a registration number will need to be applied for through the DVLA and the Triumph Owner's Club. This machine will need some degree of recommissioning before putting it back on the road. To be sold without reserve.
