Triumph needed to get it right first time with the T595 Daytona. Back in the sportsbike-crazy ’90s, nothing less was going to cut it. With Honda’s FireBlade having set the standard, being good was never going to be good enough. Outstanding was the only way to be. Happily, the British bike-buying...

The Old guy knew the Rocket 3
I'm walking up to my Rocket at a local hardware store when an "old guy" 70 to 80 years old wearing a fedora hat, slacks and coat, with wife (equally dressed) in his arm walks by.
Without missing a step he says "that's a Triumph Rocket 3 the torque-est engine made...
And I am really impressed with the quality of these.
Even as you remove it from the packaging you can feel how heavy duty these pieces are.
I went on a ride yesterday with a friend who rides a Yamaha Star and the highway pegs he had were all rusty and loose and corroded. He actually saw mine...
I saw this link this morning while stalking the Triumph FaceBook page. It is a pretty cool looking bike and they have solved the headlight problem as well...

All,
I've ordered a TuneECU cable from Amazon with intent to retune my stock 2010 R3T. I will eventually be removing the baffles/swapping exhausts/fab'n up new headers, but for now, I would just like to open the bike up a bit. What tune should I start with? Also, I've heard a few things about...

Hello all. Got my Rocket last year (2009)..love it. First bike I have owned that is EFI. Spent a lot of years tuning carbs/pipes...loved to play with a dynojet kit and pipes. Anyhow, my bike came with Jardines and I get a ton of popping on decel which is getting a touch annoying especially since...

Are any of our members on this forum also part of Big Triumph? On Facebook, Triumph HQ will pop in on the Rocket III page and of course have their own ‘Triumph’ FB page. If none are a part of our little family here, maybe they could be invited. I know they have many things to attend to there and...
Is the triumph rocket roadster going to get developed any further or are they going to phase it out , as it seems that the new Thunderbird LT is triumphs new baby. I had three rockets and I love them, but is it the end of a iconic British bike , so they can concentrate on these models. My local...
With the arrival of Triumph’s new ‘LT’ bagger version of its Thunderbird cruiser, never before have there been so many, truly credible alternatives to the all-dominant Harley-Davidson Road King. Moto Guzzi unveiled its hugely-impressive, all-new California 1400T in 2012, while the biggest threat...
