Triumph re-entered the 350cc class in 1957 with the introduction of the Twenty One, its first unitary construction model, and quickly followed up with a '500' version, the 5TA Speed Twin. The latter was first to undergo the 'sports' treatment in the form of the Tiger 100SS, the equivalent '350' not appearing for another five years. Launched in October 1962, the Tiger 90 featured a tuned engine equipped with a revised ignition system that used points instead of the previous distributor. The 'baby' Tiger looked smart and went well too, its top speed under favourable conditions being a genuine 90mph. It was also impressively economical.

Apparently, an older restoration, this Tiger 90 was purchased in July 2020 and currently displays a total of 3,085 miles on the odometer. Sadly, the owner never got the chance to ride the Tiger before he passed away in August 2020, since when it has been dry stored. Last taxed in October 2014, following a period of inactivity and having not been used since acquisition, its mechanical condition is not known and thus is sold strictly as viewed, the machine comes with a V5C document.
