The 1955 Triumph T100, or Tiger 100, is a 498cc, air-cooled, overhead valve parallel-twin motorcycle that serves as a sportier version of the Speed Twin. Key features for the 1955 model include a swinging arm frame and an 8-inch front brake, both introduced from 1954 onwards. The T100 is renowned for its powerful engine and engaging handling, building on the legacy of designer Edward Turner and the 100 mph capabilities that inspired its name
Our 1955 Triumph T100 is offered from the estate of the late Norman Crump of Kidderminster, who competed in trials during the 1950s and ’60s with some works backing from Triumph. He purchased the T100 as a project and renovated it to an excellent standard, but it has not been used following a successful Land’s End to John O’Groats ride which took place some 15 or 20 years ago. It has since been stored in a stable with other machines also in this sale, and will now require recommissioning. It includes an up-to-date V5C and a file of paperwork and manuals.
