At the beginning of World War II, Great Britain did not have the technical equipment required for such a conflict, so many vehicles were urgently ordered.
Motorcycles, primarily used by the well-known DR "Dispatch Riders" for communication between various units, were converted from civilian motorcycles with small changes such as the military color and the addition of frames for the canvas bags.
Triumph quickly proposed the 3HW model, which was based on the civilian “Tiger 80” with an overhead valve engine and parallel forks.
This model served on all fronts where British forces fought, such as Africa, Europe and Asia.
After World War II, these motorcycles were delivered to many other countries, such as Italy and Greece, where the Triumphs served for a long time thanks to their reliability and robustness.
