The second generation T140 can be very appealing in ownership, they’re typically cheaper than the T120 and they have some quality upgrades: 100 more CCs of displacement, a front disc brake, and an additional gear in the transmission. This was Triumph’s way of combating the onslaught of advancements from Japan, however, it turns out that Triumph was arguably a bigger obstacle to their own success than Honda, Suzuki, et al, as workers at the Meriden factory held a sit-in to protest the announced closure of their plant.

This 1980 Triumph T140 was purchased by the current owner from new, a Triumph man through and through, and since last on the road has formed part of a collection of Triumphs. The vendor has fitted two new silencers. Showing just 5,418 miles in his ownership. Not used for a few years, it will need to be recommissioned before placing back on the road. A current V5C is on file.

Triumph is one of the most iconic and revered names in the history of motorcycling. Established in Coventry in 1885, by the start of the 1900s the company had made their first motorcycle beginning a continuous run of production under various ownership until its eventual closure in 1983. The Tiger Cub 250cc single was one of their more popular models and was many future enthusiast’s first taste of motorcycling.

Currently on offer is a 1954 Triumph T20 Cub, purchased by the current vendor a few years ago as a complete restoration project. Restored by him to a good standard. Sadly, due to a busy work schedule, the vendor has not run it since completion. The side panel is included in the sale, the vendor removed it to and never placed it back on. It comes complete with a current V5C. Please note that the frame number does not match the V5, it is in fact the casting number on the frame lug, the machine is indeed matching numbers.
