Rocket 3 R MY2020
Triumph CEO Nick Bloor and CCO(chief commercial officer) Paul Stroud took part in opening celemony of Triumph Matsumoto in Japan June15.
CCO Stroud announceted they would unveil 6 brand new models and 6 major updates in 6 months.
I guess two updated Rocket 3 modles are included according to silhouette on the photo.

Not sure what are major updates. Not only change of color scheme or body work?
One of the new 6 models will be released June27. Probably it would be small displacement model made in India.

They could add some actual wind protection like a real fairing, larger foot pegs, bigger tank, passenger seat made for a passenger, and update that horrible cluttered TFT.
So in essence make a new Rocket. Bigger tank, make pegs for people over a size 5 foot, rear brakes that work. windshield would be nice and have Penniers tune put in at the factory. Maybe make the exhaust a little louder and for Gods sake make a horn that has reached puberty. 📯

Spot on !! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
 
not sure if its that easy to change the model which they designed in 2018-2019 launched in 2020. For a model change, complete assembly / production line needs to be changed in OEM factory or OEM supplier factory.
Maybe some cosmetic changes? I could be wrong. Lets see
thanks for posting source link

I got nosey and read up on a few 'rumors' on the 2024 on line. They pretty much all stated a new downloaded tune with more performance and gas mileage. A few minor tweaks here and there and one site stated a new exhaust option. A new color for sure. Nothing on fixing some of the other issues like rear brakes, instrument cluster and vibration to name a few. I guess we shall know in 6 months or so. I have a feeling it will be very anticlimactic. :thumbsup:

All of the posts about wind protection have me scratching my head.
I bought a bike with wind protection. A Victory Cross Country Tour. The windscreen was so large it encompassed everything in my field of view. It was the first thing that I took off when I got her home.
One of the things that I enjoy about riding, is the wind in my face. I ride with my visor up, mostly.
When I want wind protection, I drive the car.
The R3R is a raw beast. Not as unrefined as some bikes that I own, but still a riders bike. You know that you are alive when aboard.
Embrace her for what she is. Ride her hard, taste the bugs and tell the missus you be back later.
