rocket

I decided to post this as it may be helpful to some idiot other than myself. It's a bit long but good read if you want to laugh at me. After my tail tidy install I decided to go for a nice ride. When I fired up the rocket the display showed something like... "fob battery low check manual" O.K...

Hi! Hans here from The Netherlands, bought a '16 Rocket III Roadster last season and having an absolute blast so far! The insanely deep growl that is produced by this thing is mind (and ear) blowing. My fourth Triumph so far, still also own a '08 Daytona 675. The others are history. Been riding...

Undoubtedly, this is a rehashed topic, over and over again - and for resurrecting the question and debate, I apologize. However, the breadth and wealth of knowledge in this forum is amazing and tires change and perhaps I'm not the only one here with these questions. Here's the issue: I have...

Maybe I'm missing something here, but I don't understand this. 2016 Rocket III. Front pegs. Stock setup. Running Metzler ME888s. (about time for a new rear, but that's not the point here) I rode hard the other day, hitting "The Sidewinder" on Rt. 66 (191 turns in 11 miles). I was leaning...

Hello fellow Rocketeers, I am hoping that someone here might be able to help me with a bike I just purchased. It's a 2005 Rocket 3 with some minor upgrades. It was last registered in QLD and I purchased it from Melbourne with no other info. It has a digital dash (quite jazzy) Ikon rear shocks...

200kms on the ODO, enjoying every second on the bike. Coming from M1800R / M109R (US). Bike feels more compact compare to M1800R, but performance and overall build quality is different level. Having only some issues with instrumental cluster, this part should be change plllsss

Hello, A while ago I had to replace the valve cover gasket on my 2017 Rocket 3. Had trouble finding any videos showing the repair so I decided to record my process and finally got around to creating the video. Hopefully if any of you have to go do this repair this video can be helpful. I...

Hello, Im looking to get back onto a Rocket 3, debating between getting the older generation or a new one. I had a 2017 a while ago and loved it! Any recommendations?

Amazingly, my bike just got the thumbs up from the despots at TFL and is no longer applicable for a ULEZ charge. ULEZ limit is 0.15, my bike makes 0.11 according to the logbook. It's a pretty easy process to apply and obviously worth doing if you go to London.

Anyone have one?

Hi everyone, I’m considering to purchase 2018 Rocket 3 matte black with white racing stripes and only 2000 miles on it. Bike has been sitting for 5 years since owner passed but it starts and engine runs seemingly good. I know I’d need to go over brakes and change oil and battery but is there...

Hello everyone, Hope everyone is well. I am rejoining the group after many years away from bikes. My avatar is my old bike which some might be familiar with. I sold it a few years back and now Ai think it might be touring around Europe somewhere. I found an 2005 classic Rocket for sale and...

Old man winter has appeared in my part of Colorado putting a stop to riding until Spring. The coup de grace was the highway department throwing down mounds of a deadly combination of sand, gravel and Mag Chloride onto my favorite roads. The magnificent beast is in the heated garage demanding...

Well.....I didn't think i'd be saying this, but i've gone and purchased another bike which should contrast the riding experience I get from my 2020 Rocket 3R. Ever since I started out on the Rocket, I have always said that I would stick to a one bike garage. I used to have a few bikes at the...

Curious if the largest production engine somehow influences what gears you use when driving, say, vs some other motorcycle. Like, more using higher or lower gears... Low cruising speed vs highway cruising.. For example, I find myself at times just taking off from a stop in 3rd gear.. What is...

Hi All, Happy New Year. I have a question regarding my 2015 Rocket X (#475) and what a respectable sell price would be for in 2025, seeing that the bike is in very good condition with only 15,000 km on the clock, being that these are rarer than chickens' teeth to source. Since they do not appear...

Hi guys! Thanks for letting me join. We used to have a 2005 Rocket 3. It was amazing. We are now looking at a 2019 Rocket 3 GT. My husband test rode one, he had issues getting his foot under the gear stick. I hopped on the back, it felt really squishy. I wondered if anyone knows, can you...

My previous Triumph bikes were a 2013 Thruxton 900 and a 2015 Thunderbird Nightstorm 1700. I had to sell the Thunderbird a couple years ago after getting laid off and I’ve been itching to get back on a Triumph ever since. I’ve wanted one of the current-gen Rockets since the first time I saw...
