Our Verdict

An exceptionally well-preserved example of a modern classic with remarkably low mileage for its age. While it shows some deferred maintenance items, the overall history suggests a well-cared-for collector's piece.

When purchasing a Triumph of this era, the primary focus is verifying the service history. Given the low mileage, rubber components like hoses, seals, and tyres may be perished due to age rather than wear; ensure the timing belt has been inspected and that all fluids have been changed regularly according to intervals rather than just mileage.\n Check for the 'rear brake binding' noted in the most recent 2025 MOT. This is a common issue on these models and should be addressed by cleaning or replacing the rear caliper. Also, check for any signs of corrosion on the fuel tank and frame, as low-use bikes can sometimes suffer if stored in damp environments.
