The Triumph Trident is a three-cylinder motorcycle of either 750cc or 900cc capacity. These bikes were produced from 1991 to 1998 at Hinckley, Leicestershire, England, by Triumph Motorcycles Ltd, the successor business to the defunct Triumph Engineering at Meriden Works, Warwickshire, England. A range of new 750cc and 900cc triple-cylinder bikes (and 1, 000cc and 1, 200cc four-cylinder bikes) were launched at the September 1990 Cologne Motorcycle Show. The motorcycles used famous model names from the glory days of Meriden Triumph and were first made available to the public between March (Trophy 1200 being the first) and September 1991. The Trident uses a modular liquid-cooled double overhead camshaft (DOHC) engine design in a steel frame (shared with the four-cylinder bikes) with a large-diameter backbone design. The modular design ensured that a variety of models could be offered whilst keeping production costs under control?an idea originally proposed, in air-cooled form, in the early 1970s by Bert Hopwood but not implemented by the (then) BSA-Triumph company.
This 1991 Triumph Trident 900 has had just three owners from new. There are 13 service stamps in the service book to verify the mileage and it presents in ?good? all round condition for its age. It is being offered at the sale with a current V5C, three sets of keys, a service book, and an owner's book.
