2009 Rocket Touring
Came across this while reading the news this morning on the Digitaltrends.com web site. One of the articles by Bruce Brown covers the 2018 Triumph models. Triumph continues to WOW the motorcycle industry.

There is a pretty good write up on the Rocket 3 for 2018. It says it has more torque at idle than most bikes with throttle opened all the way.

The Roadster has spoiled me. I just can't see me buying a bike with 55, 75 horsepower and low torque. I realize that the bikes that make these types of HP/TQ are lighter in weight than the Roadster but still... that is lame performance.

Hey Bill!
Did ya hear me whizz thru Nampa this morn about midnight? Twas too late or I would rang ya. On way to Leakey, TX and now resting up some in Moab, UT.
 
I was at work then but got done at 1 am. With my crazy non-scheduled work life, make the call no matter what time it is Steve.

I've got two other lower powered bikes besides my Rocket. They are still fun to ride in their particular ways, even though the Rocket is my favorite!
