The Touring comes with a windshield, and hard bags, longer wheelbase, big fenders, single headlight, different tank, speedo on the tank, skinny back tire, and comes tuned with less power than Standards, Classics, and Roadsters. Good news is they can be tuned to have as much power as the others.

As steel said two diferent styles tbe R3T started in 08 has one head light gauges on the tank and might resemble a harley only with a real motor . The Standard, Classic and Classic tourer have the double bug eyed monster look. And ended in 09. 2010 the roadster came out with a few more things like abs, moved pegs, a little more info on the clocks and were Triumph lost their taste in color.

I am very new to Triumph. I recently bought a 2009 Rocket 3 Touring Classic and I love it. I have a Honda Sabre 1100 I bought about 4 years ago. With more than double the ccs, the R3T is quite a beast. I am looking forward to learning more about the bike.
