    Gas Turbine Rocket

    Pity about the sound of the motorcycle. It almost drowned out the idiot drumtrack

    Australia Day 26 January

    Fair point. We did however manage to export Rupert Murdoch to the Septics though

    Why we crash. An incomplete but informative study.

    Nice to read a report which emphasized common sense. As to helmets, my Honda Australia Rider Training instructor's comment was, Only wear a helmet if you've got something worth protecting.

    2017 Roadster? (no more two lines, pls!)

    Spoke to a marketing rep from Triumph Australia at the Melbourne Motorcycle Expo on 25 November. He said Triumph had advised dealers that the Rocket 3 was to be phased out and a new model developed. His guess was that the existing supply of unsold Rockets would become scarcer and more...

    Another new rocketeer.

    Welcome from Melbourne. I test rode a 2015 Roadster 3 today. Couldn't believe the torque at virtually any speed. The gear lever's a bit high for me but otherwise what a blast. Now to soften up the dealer near the end of the financial year.
