This vintage beauty is a 1972 Triumph Trident 750cc T150 with a
matching frame and engine number, T150 XG0090#. It comes complete with a
Title and Nova documentation, making it ready for the road.
I recently had the pleasure of firing up this classic bike, and it
didn't disappoint. With just a few kicks and a bit of easy start, the
engine roared to life, showcasing its strong and reliable motor. The
gears select smoothly, the clutch operates seamlessly, and the brakes
provide confident stopping power.
1972 Triumph Trident 750cc T150 Runner - British Engineering in Motion
As one of the most iconic models in the storied history
of Triumph Motorcycles, the 1972 Trident 750cc T150 Runner offers an
enticing blend of classic British engineering and real-world
performance. Often regarded as a hallmark in the three-cylinder
motorcycle segment, this running specimen serves as a ready-to-ride
testament to Triumph's ingenuity.
The bike is powered by its original 750cc three-cylinder engine, which
at the time of its release, was something of a revolution. The motor
produces a balanced mix of torque and horsepower, giving the bike a
satisfyingly responsive ride. Mated to a 5-speed transmission, the T150
delivers smooth gear transitions, making it well-suited for both city
commuting and long-distance travel.
In terms of aesthetics, this Trident T150 exudes a strong sense of 1970s
British motorcycle design. Its elongated fuel tank, classic round
headlamp, and robust exhaust system all contribute to its timeless look.
Its spoked wheels and chrome accents add a touch of elegance, making it
stand out even today as an example of vintage motorcycle design.
What makes this particular T150 a gem is its 'Runner' status. Unlike
many classic bikes that require extensive restoration, this unit is in
running condition. It offers enthusiasts a rare opportunity to
experience the bike as it was intended, without the need for immediate
mechanical work. This makes it an excellent choice for collectors and
riders alike who want to jump right into the saddle and experience the
Triumph legacy firsthand.
To summarize, the 1972 Triumph Trident 750cc T150 Runner is a shining
example of British motorcycle history, offering a seamless blend of
vintage charm and riding capability. If you're looking for a classic
that you can actually ride, not just admire, this T150 offers an
authentic and enjoyable window into the past.
