Essentially a 'Tiger-and-a-half', the Triumph and BSA 750cc Triples were launched in 1969. BSA-Triumph had learned a lot about engine development from racing the 500cc twins, and the Triples were the most powerful machines in their class. Today they enjoy an enthusiastic following worldwide and are supported by numerous recognised specialists and a first rate owners' club – the TR3OC – whose annual Beezumph Rally is highly recommended. Purchased in November 1977, this Rocket III comes with an old V5 and its original old-style logbook showing that the BSA was first registered to Lee Scooter Centre of London SE3. The late owner is listed as '6th Change'. 'FYH 76J' was last taxed in November 1976 and displays a total of 26,163 miles on the odometer. Incomplete and distressed, the machine is offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed.
