    Whats with Triumph values

    Just on a whim I checked into trade in value on my 2023 Rocket GT, I cant believe what I got back. On 2 different dealers I got 13,500 and 13, 800. This is basically a brand new Triumph since it has been snowing since I got it and its still under 100 miles on it.

    2 new Harleys on the block

    Had 2 guys on my block asking me about my Rocket. They both wanted new bikes. Although I really like my Rocket, I steered them away because I wont lie, the lack of support has really weighed heavy on me. 9 weeks and still cant get basic parts that most any dealer with a service dept should have...

    Penner tune on a 2023 GT

    I posted on another thread, but I dont want to hijack that thread with my questions. I have a 23 GT and would like to try the penner map. I know nothing when it comes to computers, and all the computer tech talk just confuses me. How do I get the tune, and what is needed on my part so it can be...

    Exhaustive thinking

    I have a brand new 2 brother exhaust in stainless for a m8 Harley. I also have a verex exhaust for my Rocket 3 on the way. Been toying with the idea of moding them so the Harley muffler will fit. Which basically means cutting the ends off both and having someone weld the verex end to the 2...

    Weight hoopla

    Anything I read concerning our Rocket 3, always has a big deal concerning the weight. Yet on Harleys its no big deal, even though the 20 up Rockets are right at or lighter than almost all Harleys. I have owned many Harleys and my new 23 Rocket 3 is easier to move around the garage. Then add in...

    Anyone running the Zard exhaust

    Picked up my 2023 Rocket GT today. Wow, its a nice bike. The only mod im doing so far is the exhaust. I really love the look of the Zard. Looking them up, all the ones I find are dealers not in the U.S. Curious if anyone has bought one and from who? Dont really like ordering out of country...

    New Rocket owner in hours

    Worked a deal yesterday with my local dealer on a 2023 Rocket GT in phantom black. Trading in my Ducati Multistrada V4s. Heading down there in a few hours to finish the paperwork and ride away. Wont be able to ride much except for the ride home, as its just to cold out at 20 degrees. But I...

    Anyone figured weight removal amounts

    Looking into mods that I want when I buy my new Rocket GT. Just looking at figures, I want the CW exhaust, lithium battery, clean up the tail end and a tuner. Seems a good 30-35 pounds comes off with the exhaust and battery. That is a substantial amount these days on a bike.

    Soon to be R3 owner

    New here, looking into purchasing a new R3 soon. Trying to learn about them, since they just caught my eye. Went to my local dealer, where they had 3 of them, but the employees were in a group talking about their weekend happenings and left me standing there for 20 minutes before I left. Will...
