  1. Tires

    Well, I just had my first annual service done and got new tires. Couldn’t get the Avons or the Cruistecs. My only option was the ME888. I’ve got about a hundred miles on them in the twisties and straights, about 50/50. They are surprisingly great. They stick well, seem just as good as the Avons...

  2. Tires

    Yeah, I’m just interested to see if anyone has tried the ME 888 on the post 2020 Rockets. Thanks for your reply.👍

  3. Tires

    That has a 55 profile, how does that effect the handling?

  4. Tires

    I have a 2022 Rocket 3R. I was wondering if anyone has tried the ME888 tires on this bike. I have had no issues with the Avon CC tires. I just like to try different options to compare performance. If there is a known issue with the Metzler tires on the 2020+ Rocket 3 I’d like to know beforehand...

    I’m fairly aggressive too at times. Today I was out for a couple hours on a country drive. I stopped at a stop sign and went through a small puddle. As I was driving away I figured I would be reasonable for a short distance to dry off the tires. Then I picked up the pace rather abruptly and...

    Thanks for all the replies.👍

  7. Those who have more than one bike

    Thanks, That’s the info I was hoping to get.

  8. Those who have more than one bike

    Yeah, I realize there are faster bikes, I’m thinking more in terms of torque. How it feels when your wrist demands power now. I spend 97 percent of my riding under 100 mph. Compared to your cbr 1100 xx do you feel like you are waiting for “spool up” compared to the Rocket or is the pull equally...

  9. Those who have more than one bike

    Thanks for all the replies. I was wondering because the biggest thing I rode before the Rocket was a 750 with 53 pounds of torque. I haven’t ridden any thing else since owning my Rocket. I often wonder if I got another little ripper like a z900 or even a GSXS1000 if it would feel lethargic...

    After riding the Rocket 3, do all others seem gutless?

  11. Front brake reservoir leak on new Rocket 3

    It still is not leaking. Should be GTG.

  12. Front brake reservoir leak on new Rocket 3

    Just got it back from the dealer. They replaced the master cylinder. No leaks so far. I’m going to check it daily an operate the brake lever a bunch to see if she leaks. I’ll post an update In a few days.

  13. Front brake reservoir leak on new Rocket 3

    Recently noticed a small drop of brake fluid on the bottom of the reservoir. Wiped it off and noticed another one a couple of days later. Not dripping on floor, just a drop forming on bottom of reservoir. Took it into the shop, they have been waiting on parts. Glad it’s under warranty.

  14. New to Triumph

    Thanks. It’s day 5 of ownership and I just explored Sport mode last night. I’ve only been riding in road mode. It didn’t seem overly aggressive. Third gear seemed to have the greatest and most noticable increase in throttle response. I haven’t spent any time on the highway yet so gears 5 and 6...

  15. New to Triumph

    Yeah, I’m finding it quite versatile. It has no problem going 35-40, but when you want to let the rage out of the cage, it delivers.
