So the main difference between R and GT is that the GT has handlebars that are closer to the rider and forward foot controls, and the small backrest for the passenger. Correct?
The rocket is such a desirable bike. It looks lovely. However, if I am candid, I ride a BMWR1250R,, which has very similar performance statistics (check acceleration times), and costs half the price and has half the fuel consumption, not to mention it is a superb bike to ride. A major feature though is when pulling off at an angle in a blind junction and one has to suddenly brake. The BM has a low centre of gravity, but if I was riding one of these monsters I doubt I could have stopped it falling over. Also, from experience, the one time I dropped my BM, on my driveway when my foot slipped on leaves, I was able to upright it by myself.
I'm not sure of the statistics, certainly not half the consumption or even close on performance. Everyone likes different things, but these are staggering, including the balance which is so low, far more manageable than many bikes 2/3rds the size. You can also pick these up easily due to the ultra low centre of gravity.
Grab the chrome edition and throw a BTMoto tune on it with a Werkes exhaust and it will rip harder than the storm by a good margin. Storm edition has a more egressive tune file over factory 23’ tune.
I love the new dark look
So proud off you sir English motorcycle company thriving I love it. Absolutely stunning bikes and im very fussy with bike styles 👍🏆
Lovely looking bike, would love one but motorcycle prices are getting out of hand.

Yes thats right, the bike beneath that is the same.

There are no walkaround videos for the new rocket. Maybe make one ?

I agree.
