- Superb British Classic 'Triton' restoration opportunity
- With period registration document

This classic Featherbed frame paired with a Triumph 650 twin engine offers a unique opportunity for a project that blends two iconic British motorcycle legacies. The Featherbed frame, often hailed as one of the best handling frames of its time, was a true engineering marvel when it appeared in the early 50s. The Featherbed became the preferred frame for racing and street bikes alike, with its graceful, double-cradle design setting the standard for decades.

Mated with a Triumph 650 twin engine, this setup creates the potential for a bike with not just historic charm but real performance. The 650cc engine, known for its torque and reliability, was a staple of British motorcycling and powered some of the most revered machines of the 1960s and 70s.

For the enthusiast with an eye for a restoration project or a custom build, this offering provides a great opportunity for a unique build with some very special, classic British components.


We're advised the bike is known to DVLA and appears in their records, and is supplied complete with Vehicle registration document which predates the V5 register. Any new owner will need to apply to DVLA for a V5
