Period Custom – 1974 Triumph Trident

In Custom, England by AbhiLeave a Comment

Post Listing Update: This Trident did not meet reserve despite 16 bids up to $8,100 on eBay in Mauldin, South Carolina.


Adorned with all sorts of period upgrades, this Triumph Trident has plenty of go to match the show – but it is a style of show that you like?

The list of modifications to this bike (VIN: T150VJJ43826) is extensive, but highlights include a Trackmaster frame, Trackmaster bodywork, 3-into-1 exhaust, Amal carbs with screens hidden inside the velocity stacks, and Magura controls with Yamaha master brake cylinders. The engine (which was given a motor rebuild from the crankshaft up “a few years ago”) features a Big D Cycle big bore kit + stroked crankshaft (now displaces 1,050cc), high lift cams, 71mm Bonneville Performance pistons, and polished/lightened rockers. Just 60 miles have been covered since. The seller states that the brakes should be serviced but everything else is ready to go. It runs off a capacitor and does not use a battery.

This one’s a little out there stylistically…is it for you? Find this custom Trident for sale in Mauldin, South Carolina with bidding up to $7,877 here on eBay with the reserve not yet met.
