Triumph is one of the oldest British motorcycle manufacturers, but it hasn’t been an easy path for the Midlands-based manufacturer. The entire British bike industry collapsed in the 1970s and by the early 1980s Triumph went into receivership. After a few years and of inactivity, British businessman John Bloor bought the name and manufacturing rights with his 'new' Triumph Motorcycle Company re-starting bike production in the early 1990s. Released in 1991 after years of careful development and testing and built in the new state of the art Hinckley factory, they marked a turning point in Triumph's history. Initially designed as a 'modular' concept, the range consisted of a 750cc triple and a 1000cc four together with 900cc triple and a 1200cc four, allowing them to use many of the same components across the different capacities. The Trident 750 was one of the first models launched after the company's rebirth in 1991 and is now quite rare and sought after.
The Trident 750 Triple probably has the closest connection to the Meridan Triumphs, evoking memories of the original T150s. Offered in mostly standard trim, it is fitted with a Scorpion Stainless Steel 3 into 2 exhaust system and a Kappa flyscreen. It was given a recommissioning service in March this year at a cost of £943, receipt included, and is MOT'd until February 2026. The bike will be supplied with its original book pack, 25 old MOTs and a current V5C. A bike that can still hold its own in modern day riding conditions, early first generation Hinckley Triumphs will surely become future classics.
