So this popped up in my suggested news today, if you can believe MCN (More Crap News), it's definitely happening in (late?) 2019 and it will be 2.5L 180bhp.

Although MCN released this news at the same time as a slew of other sites, which are a little less sensational suggesting 2.3L with a bit more power than the current 148hp.

Looks to me like MCN cleaned up that leaked photo, and sensationalised the rumours a bit to gain readers perhaps..?

We had a chance to see one of the leaked videos before it got pulled down. Could it be true? I don't know where the article is getting the specs though. The video we saw was about the Triumph Factory Custom program, not specifically about the Rocket III and included no details about any of the changes, just the teaser image.

Like the fuel tank . . . the rest = yawn for me.

Nothing on HP or Pricing as yet...

MCN must have some background info. It is quite common PR strategy to post product information in advance as unofficial / leak / speculation to create buzz and see initial reaction from the crowd to avoid decisions that lead to :cold shower: feelings later.

I personally like the styling, let's see what other styles they bring to the market. Bagger might be my choice if the styling is right.

Well, at least, "maybe" if they (Triumph) spends some money on advertising, people will start to talk about Triumph, and realize that they still make motorcycles!

They better spend money on improving customer service and quality of dealership network - that is all it needs. No need to advertise that they make motorcycles. Their target group is immune to advertising. It is 21st century. Advertising is waste of money and effort.
