Triumph is one of the most iconic and revered names in the history of motorcycling. Established in Coventry in 1885, by the start of the 1900s the company had made its first motorcycle beginning a continuous run of production under various ownership until its eventual closure in 1983. The OHV 350 was one of Triumph’s mainstays but production of the Tiger ended with the outbreak of World War II and never resumed after the Triumph works at Priory Street in Coventry were completely destroyed during The Blitz in 1940 by heavy German bombing.
This beautiful looking pre war Tiger has been authentically restored to a very high standard and has run recently when being photographed. The bike is not registered on a modern computerised V5C but it comes together with a buff log book showing the date of first registration as being 14th November 1938 on registration number FGT 380 and the last listed change of owner being in 1958. The presence of the buff log book should help with getting either the number recovered or an age related number issued.
