1966 Triumph 3TA, 348cc. Registration number MYU 354D. Frame number 3TA H43516. Engine number 3TA H43516.
Triumph re-entered the 350 class in 1957 with the introduction of the Twenty One. Its arrival ushered in Triumph's unitary construction era, which saw the engine and gearbox, previously separate components, combined within a single structure, albeit one that retained a vertically split crankcase assembly. Readily distinguishable by its Shell Blue metallic finish and 'bathtub' rear enclosure - a feature later applied to Triumph's larger models - the newcomer was renamed '3TA' in September 1958. With just 18.5bhp on tap, Triumph's smallest twin lacked the urgent acceleration of its larger brethren, but nevertheless was a capable tourer good for around 80mph while delivering excellent fuel economy.
Subject to an older restoration MYU has MOT history back to 2009 at 1,491 miles, in 2013 it was owned by Roy Wilson of Leven, our vendors deceased engineer husband buying it in 2015. Unused since his passing in 2017 it will require recommissioning before use.
Sold with the V5C, MOT history and several receipts.
