LOT 576
1966 Triumph 350cc Tiger 90 Police Motorcycle
Auction Estimate:£3, 000 - £4, 000
Registration no. LWO 754E
Frame no. T90P H51692
Engine no. T90P H51692
This Tiger 90 was built on the 28th October 1966 as part of a batch of 51 police models. It was dispatched to R J Ware & Sons of Newport, Monmouthshire on the 31st March 1967, destined for service with Newport Borough Constabulary. The Triumph was initially based at the police house in Llangybi in the Usk area and used by the local officer, PC Len Davies. In 1972 'LWO 754E' was disposed of by Newport Borough Constabulary as they were moving to 650cc machines. The bike remained in storage until the vendor (a serving police officer) bought it in 2017 as a long-term restoration project.
The engine has had a full rebuild with only the piston rings and clutch roller bearings replaced; it is running on standard pistons so has never been re-bored. The frame has been stripped down to bare metal and refinished with paints of original specification, and as many of the original parts as possible were reused in the refurbishment. A Boyer Bransden Power Box and electronic ignition have been fitted (original diode and rectifier included).
The Tiger's restoration was completed earlier this year and all the related bills and photographs come with the machine. Last run in March 2022, the Tiger is offered with a VMCC dating certificate and a V5C document. Keys present.
