Essentially a 'Tiger-and-a-half', the Triumph and BSA 750 triples were launched in the UK in 1969, just in time to be up-staged by Honda's four-cylinder CB750. Differences between the Triumph Trident and BSA Rocket 3 were more than just cosmetic: the two models used different frames, and in BSA guise the motor's cylinder block was slightly inclined. This T160 was purchased new by the late owner from Elite Motors of Tooting in April 1977 (see receipt and owner's notes on file). The machine had been built in 1975 as an export model destined for Canada, hence the high 'bars and large tank. There are no documents with this Lot, which is offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed. A total of 4,453 miles is displayed on the odometer.
