Property of a deceased's estate 1951 Triumph 498cc 5T Speed Twin Project Registration no. not registered (see text) Frame no. inaccessible Engine no. 5T 4367 NA Although Edward Turner's Triumph Speed Twin caused a sensation when it appeared at the 1937 Motorcycle Show, few of its admirers can have guessed how influential the design would prove to be. And whereas previous vertical twins had suffered from excess bulk, Turner's was lighter and narrower across the crankcase than the contemporary single-cylinder Tiger 90, and from certain angles looked just like a twin-port single. Performance proved exemplary for a road-going 500, better than 100mph being attainable under favourable conditions. Boasting Triumph's newly introduced telescopic front fork and the Turner-designed sprung hub, this early post-war Speed Twin is missing its saddle and rear mudguard. Offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed, the Triumph comes with a 1951 logbook for the registration 'AEC 372' (not recorded in the DVLA/HPI database), which may assist the successful purchaser in retrieving the number and re-registering the machine. Footnotes: All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.
