    Heavy clutch (2021 R3R)

    Was watching an early YouTube video about the 2.5l Rocket. The bloke in the video described the clutch as “lady fingers” suggesting a light action. I’ve never found mine to be that way. In fact, during a long stop-start ride through Edinburgh today on my 2021 R3R, I was thinking that the...

    Chicken strips

    Steady on sir! It’s just a bit of fun! Chicken strip comparison has been part of motorcycling culture as long as I’ve been riding (in my part of the world at least). It’s usually just a source of amiable piss-taking. None of my biking pals have ever taken it seriously!

    Well done sir! That’s what I like to see - giving the bike a good work out! Here’s my back tyre right hand side. The others are much the same. Just shows how well the Rocket handles.

    Glasgow M8 Friday 28/3/25 Turbo(?) 2.3 R3 Sighting

    Was driving east on the M8 on Friday 28/3 afternoon and was passed by what looked like a turbocharged 2.3l R3. Was that anybody here? Whoever it was was brave! It was absolutely pissing down and blowing a gale!

    Scottish riders - Guess the location

    Took a ride up to Glencoe yesterday. Views and weather were beautiful but **** me, the traffic and speed cameras blunted it a bit!

    its official Triumph releases R3 Storm

    Depressingly, most of the chat here is about the looks. What I want to know is the difference in performance. Is there a noticeable difference in the acceleration/handling? That’s the only reason I would trade up.

    its official Triumph releases R3 Storm

    I didn’t get a chance to have go on the demo Storm unfortunately. I asked the dealer if there were any other differences to the fuel mapping other than extra bhp and torque. He didn’t know. I’m hoping Triumph might have reduced the restrictions in 1st/2nd/5th/6th gears. Anybody here got any...

    I’ve got my bike booked in for the rear brake recall thing in a couple of weeks. I’ll see if my dealer’s got one of the Storms available as a demo bike and give it a whirl.

    I’ll likely take a test ride on one (provided there’s a demonstrator available). The higher rev limit is appealing. I keep hitting the limiter on mine when I’m ragging it. Apart from that and the lighter wheels, there’s not a whole lot more that would convince me to trade mine in.

    Updated Rocket 3 be Released?

    Seeing as how the rumours suggest the next Rockets will have the same power/torque as the TFC, has anybody ridden the base R model and the TFC? Is there a noticeable difference in performance or is it marginal? I love my Rocket but the obvious power restrictions are a bit irksome. I’ve toyed...

    Armed vigilante brothers jailed for over 40 years after shooting at motorcycle thieves

    Complete and utter travesty. Far worse crimes have had lesser sentences. The UK justice system is a joke.
