The TR5 Trophy was a standard motorcycle made by Triumph Engineering at the Meriden factory between 1949 and 1958.Based on the Speed Twin the TR5 was a trials machine designed for off-road use with a high level two into one exhaust and good handling on public roads. The name ‘Trophy’ came from the three ‘specials’ that Triumph built for the Italian International Six Day Trial in 1948 which went on to win three gold medals and the manufacturers team trophy.
