staging: 1969 Triumph Trophy 250 For Sale

The Appeal

The Trophy 250 was a last roll of the dice for the firm’s entry in the 250 bike class. Designed in the ‘street/scrambler’ style it looked good and went pretty well too. Built for just two years at BSA’s Small Heath plant, these classic 250s are now very rare.

This must be one of the best, a fully restored example with a rebuilt engine. It looks great, its red metallic paintwork and refurbished trim giving the buyer a bike much as it surely was the day it left the factory.

It is reported to be a matching numbers bike and has covered just 633 miles since the restoration was completed. This is a wonderful reminder of how good these bikes looked and a great addition to any collection.
