I stopped by the dealer today and asked if they heard of any rumors of a touring Rocket at the US dealer conference. They stated the closest thing Triumph will have for a touring model is the "touring package" they will be offering which is a Classic model with a windshield and bags installed at the factory. They stated that Triumph is disappointed with Rocket sales in the US and that Triumph doesn't think the Rocket has caught on quite yet. So they have a hard time justifying introducing a newer more expensive model when the standard model isn't meeting sales expectations. Makes sense I guess. Also explains the lower price for 2007, maybe to spur some sales.
Apparently the new colors for the Classic model are blue and black, two different reds on black and black and white. They said the black and white looked really good. Graphite and yellow have been discontinued.
The dealer did confirm that there will be a bigger twin next year, something around 14-1500cc's I guess?
