Introduced in 1924, the Model P was one of Triumph’s most successful models of the vintage era. The 500cc single-cylinder sidevalve model was built to the same standard of quality as rival machines, but went on sale for a significantly lower price, and spawned various derivatives including the Model N and Model Q. In 1926 Triumph modernised its range with a built-in semi-automatic oil pump and Webb-style sprung forks, though a hand pump remained optional for those who didn’t trust the new mechanism. Wired-on tyres replaced the beaded-edge type, allowing lower tyre pressures to be used for a more comfortable ride. The new rear brake was a far more effective internal twin-shoe hub, rather than the rim brake which had been in use since the early days of motorcycling.

This beautifully-presented 1926 Model N has been in the vendor’s possession since 2016, having been chosen because it fulfilled his need for a light and easily manageable machine. While the vendor regularly entered the Triumph in VMCC events and completed regular maintenance, he stepped back from riding it 18 months ago, hence some light recommissioning will be required before it can return to the road. It is offered for sale with the current V5C.
