Description

This Trophy allowed a Triumph dealer and his employees to compete with between 1954 and 1957. The competition racing ended when the driver started his family. The motorcycle was stripped down to parts to be prepared for the next race that never happened. The boxes with the parts remained standing until the 1990s when it was sold and renovated years later. This copy is built for competition and for the street; it has, among other things, smaller tank, shorter seat, choke control on the left side under the cushion. The wheels are spoke-out to withstand racing. Since it had been in boxes for so long, all the hard-to-find original parts were left. The few parts that needed replacing were purchased in the UK by the original manufacturers, including the wheels, the exhaust system, the handlebars, the shock absorbers and the fork.
The Triumph Trophy was produced between 1949 and 1958. It has a two-cylinder, Parallel Twin, engine of 498 cc. The motorcycle was built for use on bad roads as well as for off-road use. A small number were built for competition use.

  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
