Triumph re-entered the 350 class in 1957 with the introduction of the Twenty One. Its arrival ushered in Triumph's unitary construction era, which saw the engine and gearbox, previously separate components, combined within a single structure, albeit one that retained a vertically split crankcase assembly. Readily distinguishable by its Shell Blue metallic finish and 'bathtub' rear enclosure - a feature later applied to Triumph's larger models - the newcomer was renamed '3TA' in September 1958. With just 18.5bhp on tap, Triumph's smallest twin lacked the urgent acceleration of its larger brethren, but nevertheless was a capable tourer good for around 80mph while delivering excellent fuel economy. "One of the swiftest standard British-made 350cc roadsters tested by Motor Cycling, the Triumph Twenty One combines an untiring zest for high-speed cruising with safe handling and a remarkably economical fuel consumption," reported the 'Green 'Un'. Currently displaying a total of 49,765 miles on the odometer, the 3TA presented here is offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed. The seat and bathtub rear enclosure are loosely attached, and the engine turns over. Accompanying documentation consists of an old-style continuation logbook (issued 1969) and an old-style V5 (issued October 1983). The machine is recorded in the HPI database.
