Triumph is gearing up to launch the Rocket 3 GT in India on September 10, 2020.



The Rocket 3 GT features a few modifications that are aimed at improving its touring capabilities. It comes with pullback handlebars and adjustable foot pegs that are positioned slightly forward. It has a larger seat that is positioned at a lower height compared to the R variant. The bike also gets a taller flyscreen, heated grips, adjustable pillion foot pegs and backrest.



The 2020 Rocket 3 GT is based around an aluminium chassis, making it 40 kg lighter than its predecessor. The bike is powered by a 2,500cc, 3-cylinder engine that produces 165 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 221 Nm @ 4,000 rpm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox.



The bike is equipped with a 47 mm upside down fork suspension at the front and a monoshock at the rear. The braking setup consists of dual 320 mm discs and a single 300 mm disc with 4-piston calipers at the front and rear respectively.

The bike looks so good but somehow those headlights don't do it for me. But what a bike!

I can't even understand what riders do with so much torque. And the sound, oof!

[Vitalstatistiks]

I am drooling over this and I am not even a bike guy! Haven't given any two wheeler a single second of thought for almost 2 decades, and i have burned some serious bandwidth watching this one's reviews! Just wow!

I have no idea about the bike scene, but its not possible there is a better bike than this, in what it does, right? Cruiser style, power, torque, ease of riding. Did i say 'looks'. I hope esteemed members don't educate me, because for me this, right here, is the pinnacle.

We all have our vices and that's fine. I'm a huge motorcycle guy and this bike has that something special. If I just go by the looks, it's a wowza machine, guaranteed to turn heads. Triumph is amazing in that sense, most of their products have a unique identity/personality, in my humble opinion. Check out their Bobber. It's absolutely droolworthy.

Triumph Rocket 3 ‘221 Edition’ revealed globally

Triumph has unveiled the Rocket 3 ‘221 Edition’ for the international markets. Both variants (R and GT) of the motorcycle are available in this new ‘221 Edition’.

The Triumph Rocket 3 ‘221 Edition’ is named after the motorcycle’s ground-breaking peak torque output of 221 Nm. The figure can also be seen on either side of the bike’s fuel tank. There are also some fresh graphics and the eye-catching colour scheme that the British brand has named ‘Red Hopper’.




The Triumph Rocket 3 ‘221 Edition’ also features multiple blacked-out parts that enhance the bold visual appeal of the motorcycle. These include radiator shrouds, windscreen, side panels, rear bodywork and fender brackets.

Apart from the cosmetic tweaks, no other changes have been implemented in the Triumph Rocket 3 ‘221 Edition’. This means, powering the motorcycle is the same gigantic 2,500cc, 3-cylinder engine that makes 165 BHP @ 6,000 rpm.




Last month, Triumph had revealed the Bonneville Gold Line Edition models that are expected to be launched in India next year.

Triumph, the VW of motorcycle world.

This thing is making approximately double the torque than MS Baleno - which I am sure works very hard to give you one of the most exhilarating feelings while accelerating but I can't shake the thought as to how rigid and monolithic the bike feels. The steering probably moves 4 degrees on both sides.
I am clearly not the target customer for it.

Regardless, I am a BIG fan of Triumph and hope they get this same color on Speed Twin on which I have my eyes set. The Twin already has a fabulous red color but this looks even better.

Triumph's graphics design team seems to be taking several steps backwards with their approved submission for 2022. First they ruined the timeless Speed Twin with hideous new graphics and now they have overdone the Rocket 3 GT to make it look all jintaak.

Was at the motorcycle dealer yesterday and spotted this menacing looking thing. This is the cheaper Rocket 3 R. Cheaper as in, compared to the 3 R 221 Special. I mean, do you really need a Special Edition for a motorcycle like this!
