    How is 2023 Rocket 3 in terms of riding that includes sudden maneuvers and sudden stops?

    Pardon my ignorance, what is a grid road?

    How is 2023 Rocket 3 in terms of riding that includes sudden maneuvers and sudden stops?

    My buddy has a Ducati Diavel and we are pretty close on flat ground and downhill. Uphill the Rocket pulls away. I have passed way more sports bikes than have passed me. I cant keep up with a very good rider on a very good sports bike however.

    How is 2023 Rocket 3 in terms of riding that includes sudden maneuvers and sudden stops?

    My 2020 Rocket will out maneuver and out stop any other cruiser I have ridden with and I have ridden with a lot of folks. Have scraped both pegs btw.

    Have you ever felt the need for steering dampers on the Rocket 3?

    I pegged the throttle at the apex of a fairly sharp curve once and it started to do the wobble but stopped the instant I backed off of the throttle. I dont know if it was the dreaded death wobble or just the front getting a bit light on the curve. Nothing before or since.

    Rocket III as a first bike?

    My caveat is I did ride a dirt bike as a kid. But after 30 years not riding I borrowed a buddies Vespa to take the road test for my license and promptly bought a Rocket. Now into my second Rocket and more than 80,000 miles combinded, without having never taken a class I will say it is...

    I need help, I really am starting to hate my new Rocket GT

    I guess all asses are not the same. The stock seat for me is the most comfortable one I have sat on. Way more comfortable than my 15 Touring. In fact just last weekend we did 1100 miles in 24 hours. I for sure had aches and pains but my tookus did ok. Just under 40,000 miles on the GT now...

    Oil leak on the 2020 GT

    Tightened mine a bit past spec about 10,000 miles ago. No issue since. But even if you dont do that fix the minuscule leak you are left with is in my opinion no reason at all not to do your trip.

    Oil leak on the 2020 GT

    Ok this might not be according to Hoyle but another contributor on this forum suggested that tightening the bolt in question fixes the problem. Well, at least on mine it did, snugged it about another quarter to one third of a turn and 4000 or so miles later it is still a non issue (dont tell...

    10k mile oil changes???

    Triumph pays folks way smarter than me to study the effects of longer oil change intervals so I have always gone with the 10000 mile reccomendation. Conversely, when I took the 15 in at 20000 miles for the valve check he said that unless it was making noise or hard to start it would be a waste...

    Oil leak on the 2020 GT

    I talked to my dealer again and he said that the problem is that the transmission cover needs to be resealed and that it was a two step process and that is why it will take some time for the repair. That is all the information he could give me. I am going to call Triumph Monday myself and see...

    Oil leak on the 2020 GT

    I will try to get that loaner. Yea the heat is intense in the summer but that just means we get up early and head up to the mountains and the cool pines. I can be at 9000+ feet in 1-1/2 hours and over 10000 in about 3 hours.
