Thanks Mats Larsson of Sweden for this picture of his 57 TR5M Trophy. It is an ex Swedish Army bike. Original features: 1956 front forks and front wheel Engine covers have never been polished Ski moutnings (on frame in front of alternator and at pillion footrests). Not QD headlamp Originally 19" rear wheel (normally 18" on Trophy). He has fitted an 18" on the bike but has kept the original wheels in the garage (army green). The bike was civilized by 1968 and had been turned into a chopper in the seventies. Originally there was no chrome on the bike all normally chromed parts were silver painted or army green.

  1. Hello Mats Larsson

    I have discovered that my own TR5 is ex Swedish Army – it was built in December 1957.

    Do you know if many others exist?

    Look forward to hearing from you – thanks

    How very interesting, I also have a TR5 ex Swedish Army – it was built in December 1957.
    According to the TOMCC records one of 290 sold to the Swedish Army (As shown on page 57 of ‘The Triumph Trophy Bible’ by Harry Woolridge)
