Friend of God
I was really surprised. I e-mailed Bridgestone to find out why the Rocket wasn't listed since they make the correct size in a radial. I assumed whatever the problem might have been with the recall, they would have fixed it by now. But to my surprise I was told that their tires were not designed for the Triumph Rocket III Tourer. They didn't explain other than simply suggesting they are not recommending their tires for our bikes. Here's the e-mail to read for yourself.
Dear John,
Thank you for your mail.
Yes, we produce tyres in the correct size but they're not approved for use on this bike. The Rocket III Tourer needs special fitment tyres for it and the tyres from our range are not designed to be used with this type of design of bike.
I trust this helps.
Please contact me directly should you require further information.
