Triumph revised the T150 Trident for the 1971 model season. The mechanical components benefited from minor revisions, but the appearance of the model was considerably altered, losing the "heavy" styling of the earlier machines and adopting a style which reflected the twin cylinder Triumphs of the period. The side panels were changed as was the exhaust system, which adopted tapering, megaphone style silencers. New blade type mudguards and slimline forks were adopted and indicators were fitted. The model continued in this form until 1972 when a five speed gearbox and a 10 inch front disc brake were fitted, the T150V, as the model was now typed continued unaltered until 1975 and the introduction of the considerably revised T160.
This example was purchased by the vendor in 1976 and was rebuilt between 1991 and 1994. During the time of the rebuild the engine was completely overhauled with new parts being fitted where required. Stainless components were used wherever possible and the front brake was replaced with an uprated item. A five speed gearbox was fitted. The vendor indicates that approximately £4000 was spent on the machine during the rebuild and that it has covered 1200 miles since completion. It is described as being in excellent condition throughout and is accompanied by a Swansea V5C, all the MOT certificates from 1991 to the current one valid until the 1st May 2010, a road fund licence valid until April 2010 and a quantity of spares.
