...Quote.....The Rocket 3 has claimed acceleration figures of 0-60 mph (0-96 kmph) in just 2.79 seconds.

Do the brakes work? - Just saying

...remember!...it's not how safe you are but how cool you look!!..lol.

Well that's me scuppered then!. I'm probably not that safe either.

Wow it looks nice , I like the GT better , a lot slimmer then the older style Rockets.
I was so disappointed going to the Motorcycle show and Triumph didn't have one to show on the floor.

For anyone who’s ridden it, what’s the heat like from the headers compared with the older models?

I would guess not everyone will achieve this.

I was watching to see how close my clothes were to the headers but its ok...the heat shields keep the heat down too but i didnt ride it for miles and miles...think its ok tho.I'm used to my Jardine headers so ride with my foot out on the pedal a bit anyway.

I had a longish test ride (and bought it, waiting for delivery). There wasn't much heat from the headers. But would need to wait and see how it does after a long ride.

..hi James...hope all is ok down there with the fires and all..?

Yeah Mate, pretty right where we are apart from a few small fires that have been around 10 to 15kms away. Further East is where it's all burnt. Definitely a bad season this year.
