A happy marriage of Triumph power and Norton roadholding, courtesy of the latter's peerless Featherbed frame, the Triton is rightly regarded by enthusiasts as the quintessential British sports special. This hybrid first emerged in the 1950s and continues to be built by professionals and amateurs alike, enjoying marque status today. This delightfully understated 'old school' Triton is powered by a Triumph Thunderbird engine dating from 1956. Other noteworthy features include a Triumph gearbox; alloy cylinder head; twin carburettors; alloy wheel rims; and a twin-leading-shoe front brake. Last taxed in February 1994, the machine is offered for re-commissioning/restoration and is sold strictly as viewed. There is no registration document with this Lot, and it should be noted that the frame appears to have been re-stamped with a Triumph number. Prospective bidders must satisfy themselves as to the validity of the Vehicle Registration Number prior to bidding.
