The machine offered here is an example of the 5/5 sports model, which topped Triumph's half-litre range on its arrival for 1934. 'DAS 891' was acquired by the vendor in October 2019, since when it has benefited from considerable refurbishment. Works carried out include fitting new stainless steel silencers; relining the clutch and fitting new springs; repairing the primary chain case; fitting a new saddle; installing electronic ignition and an exchange dynamo; fitting a Morgo oil pump; and renewing the front wheel spindle and bearings and a front fork spindle. There is LED lighting and the Triumph comes with parts to return it to magneto ignition should a future owner so desire. Last run in October 2020, the machine is offered with a quantity of bills/invoices; Triumph Tiger 90 copy technical literature; expired MoTs (most recent 2013); SORN paperwork; and V5/V5C documents.
