Pretty much a rave review. Note they even find the bike to be good looking.

The R3T is a beauty. My R3C may be average looking but makes up for it with a great personality!

Not a bad article at all. I only wish that ceramic coated header pipes were available for this bike. On the Harley they helped keep that tremendous heat down to where it wasn't even noticeable.

The Triumph Dealer in Reno NV told me if I wanted my headers Ceramic coated they would remove them send them out to be coated and reinstall them, I realize Reno probably isn't an option for you but you should ask around, I'm sure somebody local could do it.

Yes I've seen this article and read it many times.....when you've ordered a Rocket and have to wait for its delivery... I find myself searching for anything that is even remotely connected to the rocket to fill in the time....I don't think there is a youtube video I haven't seen.

I think it's time for a third rocket model R3ST ( rocket 111 sports tourer) that would complete the range with a tune similar to the roadster and 190 or 200 rear tyre 130 front tyre

I'd buy one, and swap out motors with my Touring.

I had mine Jet Hot coated right after I bought the bike. Made a noticeable difference.

Harleys are "boy toys". Our bikes are "brutally handsome". Hank Williams said it, "move over little dog cause the big dog's movin' in".
