This bike is the proof that Triumph does loves motorcycles and it´s not just a cash grabbing corporation. Big risk in building this type of stuff, mad respect to them, love my Bonneville T120
Triumph no matter the bike always seems to be the smoothest running bike.
This motorcycle as pretty much no reason to exist but it is so damn cool and I'm glad it exists
I bought the triple black GT. Got an after market windscreen taller than stock that was a direct bolt on replacement, dark grey color. I also have the Triumph sport panniers bags and tank pads. I installed mini floor boards that are really good for comfort and keeping your feet from slipping off the pegs at high speeds. Great bike very fun to ride!
I have a 2020 R3 and I have driven it hundreds of miles on the highway and I had no problem at all. I am 6 feet tall and 210. I ride very comfortably on it and love the bike.
If you want touring comfort, buy a Cadillac. I've just bought an R3 and love it, it is so much better in every possible way to any Harleys that I have ever owned.
This bike is classified as a muscle cruiser and is so intended for that purpose. If you need it to be an Ultra Glide or crotch rocket, then look somewhere else.
Wtf is a muscle cruiser or a ultra glide ? Is a mountain run not a touring ride ? In europe all rides are damn mountain/twisty rides by murican standards
@@mikemayers9353 it’s a power cruiser technically. An Ultra Glide is a Harley Davidson motorcycle with about 1/2 the hp.
What is a muscle cruiser intended for?
@@aaron___6014I guess they're talking about riding up a mountain...
Agreed. My Vmax is a muscle bike. It gets 20 mpg on a good day. I have no expectations of long distance highway comfort from this genre.
This motorcycle is for the taller larger man of the world. Yes, the torque is massive, and you will feel like you are being blown away. Arm and shoulder strength is recommended but it takes time to get used to the wind blast. I remember my very first ride onto the highway on a Triumph Bobber 1200CC, I actually thought about returning it. I had never experienced wind like that before, being that I mainly drove a car. I've been on a Ducati SS and my legs were limp at the end of the ride due to the bend angle on my knees. Triumph made the Rocket 3R Black Roadster edition specifically for the Man that fall in the 6 ft + and can man handle an 800lb beast.
I am that man.
@Shalin316 No way, 117lbs. That’s like placing a sheet of paper on the seat. The torque is amazing on this motorcycle and the best way to find out is test it for yourself.
I’ve got a Rocket 3R Black, but with GT bars and touring seat, but kept the mid-set pegs. I find this much more comfortable and it is much easier to handle. I find the GT screen creates more buffeting, so naked all the way!!
Finished a 7k mile road trip on my GT two weeks ago. 85+ gets a little rough but not a dealbreaker. No need to be in that big of a rush anyways.
Why buy the bike then!?
@Shalin I find it comical the poster said, "85+ gets a little rough but not a dealbreaker. No need to be in that big of a rush anyways." What a stupid comment to post as an owner of this bike. I ride a 2018 VMax and my bike handles phenomenally well at 145+
What bike handles well at 145?
@@glickmpb The wind was rough. Not the handling. Not much of a wind screen.
I have the triple black GT limited edition but with the footpads in the R position. The GT handlebars are swept further back for a more comfortable riding position. My best ever bike.
OC- all the parts between the R and GT models are interchangeable.
OC: I'd definitely go for the GT over the 3R black edition for touring. That added comfort the GT would provide would make long road trips so much more enjoyable. The Rocket 3R Black is still an awesome bike. Maybe if they sell enough Triumph may just release a new Daytona.🤞🤞
The gt would be more lazy to ride..for a bike so heavy you cannot hit corners with the gt footrest position
I love my rocket 3r, werks exhaust and corbin fairing.
Yer high if you think this is bad on the highway. I've ridden 2800 miles on my TR3GT. It's wonderful, but everyone has their own tastes. Just purchased it in September 2022.
OC. I have the Rocket 3 R Black with windshield, backrest, luggage rack, quickshifter, heated grips and Bluetooth connectivity for navigation. Didn't get the bags, though - they are small, soft, with a zipper and an extra cover to become waterproof. The overall experience with this absolute torque beast is phenomenal, especially in the mountains and on the highway. The latter has partially no speed limit in Germany, so I found around 150mph manageable, but up to 100mph comfortable for longer rides. I'm annoyed only by the recurring notifications that the key is out of range or has low battery, even after the latter was replaced twice. Other than this minor detail, I find this bike perfect.
FYI, the GT has different seat, handlebars and footpeg positioning, geared towards comfort rather than handling. Try both to see what fits you.
I own a 2015 Triumph Rocket III. I am 6'2" 220 Lbs. I rode from California to Florida ( over 6,000 miles) and all across the United States. It doesn't have cruise control or hazzard lights, but plenty of room for luggage ( gym bags, etc). The power is addicting! I will be buying a new 2024 Rocket III for the cruise control and navigation. If you are timid,this ain't the bike for you. This is a MAN'S MOTRCYCLE. If you buy it, you will love it.
For highway I fitted a powerbronze screen to my R and makes a huge difference at 80mph but most of time run as is, cos looks so damn low n mean 😎 😆 btw Sport mode makes a big difference to mpg Chase, so put in Road, no need for Sport for cruising, still hugely torque … short shifting and have got close to 190 miles + range, have averaged 42mpg over entire ownership… have ridden for 9 hours and super comfortable, zero fatigue but you want long arms.. and compared to a Diavel the Rochet is super smooth, it’s a 2500cc motor yet way smoother than any vtwin out there. I grip the tank with the tank pads :) just ignore the key fob message ******* it’s a keyless range thing, and you learn to stay in place and doesn’t ache Chase so I think comes down to sport v cruise riding style. OC
Great cinematography guys. Really enjoyed.
OC: Love this video. The roads in North Ga are awesome! Great bike! It has me thinking I want the torque. Thank you for the "sacrifice". See you next time!
I bought the GT but still felt the wind protection was anemic over 80 mph. So I bought an after-market screen which wasn't overly big, but large enough to make blasting down the highway fun again.
which one did you buy
@@justhavinagoodtime It's a brand called California Scientific. The black Rocket in the pictures is actually mine, the owner used my bike to create a Rocket 3 windshield for their catalog.
@@conanlive3784 very cool thanks so much
Dude you could not be more spot on with the seat! It was a serious pain in the ass to break in and took a couple thousand miles!😂 Ice pack though, just buy it ahead of time- wish I would have. Seat breaks in very nicely though and now I can put hours on it with no problem. ALLEGEDLY you can cruise at 100+ mph upright (140ish stock and google the top end for re-maps but I wouldn’t know anything about that) with no problems once your body is conditioned. It’s kind of like getting a total body workout on an elliptical, a really fast elliptical.
Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE my bike. Just doesn’t feel safe with all the electrical issues I’ve had.
I’ve got 7k miles on mine and promise you the GT doesn’t give you much more wind protection, I have all the dead bug evidence on jackets to prove it.
Great video, nothing you said was all that far off; like anything in life or business it’s all about setting realistic expectations.
I have two gripes on the bike but they are my own and not shared by the broader Rocket fan people community, trust me I’ve already heard their responses:
1) low/no storage- buy a bagger and get over it they will say, most people that would want this bike in the first place won’t have time/interest/patience for Panniers. At least not in the US, at least from my experience. It’s a naked bike and I know what I signed up for. Honestly I didn’t think it would be so easy to ride for distance so now I have some tough decisions to make.
2) For all the power and torque,,, the bike is terrible in 1st and 2nd- if you are like me and have a problem. That being said feel free to challenge a majority of 4 wheel vehicles as long as you stay away from the Tesla Plaid or something of the like- she is a beast and you will cry yourself to sleep for months afterwards due to the embarrassment and shame for not knowing better to read labels.
Ride often. Ride safe. Thank you for the great video.
P.S. Replace battery upon purchase, turn off key regularly or plan on replacing every 4-8 months.
P.P.S. My bike has had a litany of electrical issues: turn signals, brake lights, gas gauge, now headlights… Don’t get me wrong, dealer takes care of them all but honestly how does Triumph get away with stuff like that? Forums all the time are talking about issues with rear brakes!? I’d swap mine out right now if I could, for same model- I love this bike and she is worth the extra effort. Just doesn’t feel like that should happen given the money they had me pay.
I hate that it’s the middle of riding season and I have to drop it off for the 5th time and I’m in Minnesota so there isn’t much of a riding season already. I mean it’s a 2022,,, God Bless British engineering I guess.
Thank you for talking about the seat comfort 🙏 I have tailbone pain but refuse to stop finding a bike I can ride.
Whatever bike you get, if you get a Corbin seat, we’ll worth the money.
Same here. My solution is to always ride my GS in enduro mode everywhere.
Badass lookin’ Bike ‼️
Now you should try the same thing with the GT after to compare. Not only the Sissy bar and the windscreen, it also has a more comfortable seat, forwards pegs and handlebar is closer to you. It also has handbars heater. I left a deposit on a GT Triple Black and plan to use it for touring. Would be great to hear your comparison between both.
Tried the GT (not black edition, which anyway is just a collectible for too much money), and I will never say it enough : Rocket 3 IS NOT a cruiser, even with Triumph trying to put windscreen, front foot controls and higher bar. It is a POWER roadster. I finally bought a nice R3R (hate the fake cruiser style of th GT), and it is exactly that : TOO MUCH power and torque, you need to be a lumberjack to throw it in curves for more than 10mn, nut man this is exactly what I was looking for😁
Don't even bother trying it if you're looking for a cruiser.
@@dimitripinto4747 you can't get too much money as you can't get too much power. But hey, I respect your thoughts and sincerely do not really care if people like my bike or not, I bought it for my own pleasure.
By the way, not sure you can get a good idea only with a road test. Mine now has 13.500 km and I just get back from a 4300km trip in 11 days and it was amazing. I had the 25L Triumph luggage on it + a SW-Motech drybag 350 and it was like nothing was on it. All the power makes it a blast to run and it was still as nimble as if nothing was on its back. And no need to work it hard on twisties. Off course, if you try to make it lean with your weight you'll find it hard. But just use counter sterring as you should on every bike and it will flick right at the moment you think about doing it. It is surely not as comfortable as a Goldwin but I'm 47 and no pain at all after the trip. Only downside honestly, the gas tank is too small. Made 277km on my longest ride.
OC - Chase I think you are just not used to no fairing. I can ride my xdiavel at 80 with no hands. And it has no windscreen at all. And I am 260+ so I am a bill board. The little windscreen is only going to push the air into your helmet instead of chest.
I ride a Harley Street Bob with no fairing. It’s perfect for commuting and cruising. I run 70 to 80 on the highway and it is fine. It’s a little gusty over 80 my comfort zone is in the 80’s so it’s fine for me. If I was going to do long tours I might get a fairing but I don’t spend all day on mine. It has the mid controls with forward mustache bar to rest my feet. I don’t leave them out front that long. I’ll put my feet out to stretch out but have never adapted that as my default position.
My 2012 rocket 3 is by far the most comfortable bike ive ever riden. It handles like a champ on the highway. Its also has a bit more weight than the new body style. Pretty sure the tires were larger on mine vs the new version. Ive enjoyed the rocket more than my sport bikes. You also only feel that push at a stand still and you dont notice after the first day or so.
The new version has a 240 rear and 150 front
Old version. 240 and 160
Just saw about 25% of the video and theres my LIKE there .. exactly what i was looking for. Lovely video
I own a 21 GT and the best fit for my 6-foot body configuration was mid controls on the GT which has the bars that are swept back a little bit. And the little bit larger screen does help
My old 2012 Rocket was about the same on the highway, above 85 and it was tough, however, I did have a bit of a bigger fly screen, and i had highway pegs so i could stretch out my legs ( i commuted 80 miles a day on it, mostly on the toll road where the speed limit is 85. If i wanted to go faster, i would often put my feet on the rear passenger pegs to adopt a more sport bike position, and I could easily cruise at over 100 like that.
I actually have this new black edition being shipped to me currently, so will be interesting to see how it compares, but yeah what you said Chase, sounds like my old one for sure!
Sounds like you have put a lot of miles on the first Gen Rocket. Do you have any experience on the Honda Valkyrie? I plan on buying a second bike this spring. My v65 Magna is a blast for rides under 100 miles but I would like to be able to go on longer rides. I have it narrowed down to the Rocket or Valkyrie but I do not know anyone who has owned either. All I get from my riding buddies is "Just buy a Harley". But I've been there done that.
@@tjmartin7477 Hey TJ, yeah I think I put about 55k miles on that old Rocket, in 5 years. I do not have any experience with the Valkyrie, but I would imagine you couldn't go wrong with either... see if your local dealerships have either?
I am loving the new Rocket though, can't wait to take it on some long distance rides in the spring!
@evo Hi! new to motorcycling here. with your feet off of the front pegs while cruising, you would have to shift your foot every time you wanted to use the rear wheel brake right? seems dangerous, but I'm new and could be way off. thx!
@@thoyo yeah, but not really...rear brake isn't used that much tbh, I do use it, but no need in the riding position being discussed...
and welcome to riding! gear up, go at your own pace, and enjoy!
@@Dumptheclutchevo thanks!! Will do :)
I have a 21 rocket and think that seat is comfy ASS hell. 🤘🤘
I do love seeing you drive past my work exit. Super cool.
That side shot is lit
I'd be getting Wind Protection and for rain too then wait for more options if needed for my rides..
He fills wind in the upper chest while riding a motorcycle that has no fairings or windscreen. What a surprise !
Having traded a 2020Gsxr1000r 200hp sports bike for a Rocket3 R i have no regrets absolutly fantastic bike and handles great concidering its size and weight Triumph made a fantastic job on this bike puts a smile on my face every time i get on it and i just love watching John Deere;s sorry i ment Hardly Movin Sons dissapearing into the distance i my mirrors.
OC - Can't you just add a windscreen and change the seat? It seems like a LOT of bikes have the same two issues and they can be pretty personal so folks pick and choose their windscreens and seats. I'd choose the model based on the rest of it and then worry about the seat and screen later. I haven't looked though, and with these being a fairly new version maybe there isn't much available yet.
Videos been out 2 minutes, Glad to be early for once
I always forget that you live in GA, until I see a bunch of places that I know as you're heading to the twisties. I lucked out on that front. I live 20 minutes from Helen.
OC
I totally agree with u …. The black edition looks better than all the other colorways. Since they r going to be hard to find i figured i get a any color and wrap it British racing green and maybe find a rustic tan saddle.
Nice , personally I haven’t been on a bike going 80mph or faster with no windshield or fairing that doesn’t push you back . If you want comfort cruise put a windshield or fairing on it . Thanks for the video
as a rocket r owner , seating poisition and handle bar sucs ! your neck back and butt deads after riding in city traffic and turns
Gorgeous bike.
I got to say, the bike looks absolutely phenomenal in this video 🔥
I am planning on buying it so ur video helps dude thanks
Its been out 14 seconds :)
Thats bad! Buy a r1m like me or h2r
great plan!!!!
@@abdullahalfaysalsoumick2833 that’s a terrible comparison. The closest thing to the Rocket 3 would be the V-Max.
I love this bike minus the goofy headlights and mirror placement..probably gonna be my next bike though.
would have liked to see the review of the r3 up the mountain. so i looked in your triumph playlist - but couldnt find it!
OC,I agree with Frank. Definitely the GT. It’ll still be nice in town and won’t beat you up when riding longer distance.
OC - I've got a 22 GT for a mix of highway and city riding and it's perfect 🤘
We really like our Rocket III GT Triple Black, but we’ve been considering swapping to mids…!
OC - will let you know in about 2 weeks. I saw the Rocket R today at Papa’ shop in Roswell. Felt good sitting but wondering about the arm strain as I felt a little stretched out … and I have long arms. So, I’ll compare to GT, of which I understand that the handlebars sway back a bit more. Regardless, I think I will prefer the mid-pegs on either setup.
Buy Corbin seat and a touring screen when you go touring the bike you have rode is more akin to a street fighter appeal Horses for courses OC
OC I think there is (was) also a GT black edition. Failing that the standard paint on the GT is black but with polished details instead of black. It's the one I'd have. Forward pegs, touring seat, luggage and a sissy bar.
8:39 was lit!🔥
What wait- it’s wIndy on a naked bike?
The GT seat is different but it has forward controls and wider and slightly higher wider bars. Corbin make a very good replacement seat and higher after market screens are available .
Bike looks good on u bro 😀😀😀
Are those gardening gloves ,??🤔
“Key fob out of range” just means it’s a reception issue. It SHOULDN’T shut off IF it stops detecting the key. The keyless ignition systems GENERALLY only require the key for starting. I accidentally left my Subaru key on my kitchen counter and left home without it. The car let me know that the key was missing but didn’t lock me into park or disable driving.
Correct, own a 2018 Speed Triple RS with key fob.
To not get the out of range error I need to have the key the left pocket of my pants and not near my cellphone. If it doesn't start the key needs to be near the seat for a short while and it will start. The bike will never shut off when the key is out of range. I can even leave the key at home once it is started.
Super awesome content
i bin looking at this bike i love it but my commute is 120miles to and from everyday for work and its mostly freeway im taking comfort into consideration and the mile rang on the tank
Don’t forget Pop’s when your checking out what Triumph of Roswell bike you want. Cafe in a bike shop. 😮
OC: I would go with the Black and mod it with a better seat and a windscreen that is removable. Bikers are gonna mod it anyway, may as well go with what I like aesthetically and build from there.
I did 600 miles on german Autobahn with an average of 110 miles/h. Don't understand your problems. Btw. every Accessoires from the GT model also fits on the R model without any adjustments
I love my 21 Rocket 3 r, really great ride. The only thing that I don't like is the $$$450 usd price on that rear tire. only two Companies make em Metzler and Avon. I bought a replacement and a few months later it got punctured. so was $900 bucks down the drain. I know everything costs money but I really hope a couple of other tire companies catch on and start making them at half the price. 😏😏❤
the point that it have most torque than any production bike and acceleration 0-60 in 2.6sec is also worth smth =)
I have a Rocket (2022) GT. I have seen several videos where fuel mileage is mentioned. Did you notice it has a large engine? An engine displacement of 2458cc. What is so damn important about gas mileage. I owned a 2002 Boss Hoss 502CI bike as well. It got 8 miles per gallon. I don't care what kind of mileage it gets. I didn't purchase the thing for great fuel mileage. I purchased the Rocket because of its engineering and design.
oc I would probably go with the gt model
I have the gt its awesome 🚀
He keeps saying mid controls. If he means forward controls that lock you in, it would make more sense. Mid controls allow you to stand up and stretch your legs and back.
i scrolled after your intro then came back then left again
Would you recommend this for a 6'3" 300lbs rider? Or the gt? As far as leg comfort and size
This bike is made for 30mph max. So everyone gets the chance to admire it.
OC: I'd get the 3R and a small black windshield. The look is really spectacular, and the GT shield looks to have the same mounts
OC: Definitely would get that gt model with the windscreen
I'm 5'7 do you think it'd be a great idea for me to b a rocket 3 GT
Would I flatfoot on it?
Could you get a GT screen as an add on to fit on that version you are on now?
OC: I bought a GT last year and have done nearly 12k miles, traveling from Vegas to Phoenix and a ton of city and little trips round Vegas. The R's foot position just didn't feel right to me and I'm glad I went GT. A friend of mine bought an R but hated the wind blast so he put the screen from the GT on his R and it solved that issue
I love the gt too 🚀
Eres muy delicado carnal, no aguantas nada
You felt like your core was more engaged because of the position or because you're riding at 80 without a windscreen?
Im not sure these complaints are valid because this is not what you normally ride. The wind screen can buy aftermarket, and the back rest dose nothing for driver and the additional higher price for wind screen heated grips and back rest and forward pedal for the same ride feel for myself i like the R over GT
I prefer the R version for the foot peg position, and it looks more aggressive, especially if you are not on the highway a lot. You can always get specific GT parts and swap to suit your preference, but still keep the black model look. Check out Corbin Saddles for custom aftermarket seat options, and I've seen a couple decent looking aftermarket windshield options around too. In my opinion, if you are looking to decide between the R and GT version of this bike, you should base your decision on the foot control position, which is placed in different locations for each model. All of the other differences between the two models can be easily switched over and changed. The very best mod for either model is still the shift assist (quick shift) option!
Triumph should make a fixed fairing bagger based on this..btw, you can't stand up on the pegs with the GT pegs .OC
1:43 This bike looks awesome on the highway all murdered-out, including the rider.
Maybe you if you can compare this ride with BMW R1250GS… that’s more like a touring.. would be interested to understand difference
Everyone who reviews this bike whines about the key. The regular key (not the key fob) will start the bike. Otherwise turn the key fob off when you aren't riding, or change the battery in the fob if you can't seem to remember that. After owning this bike for 3 months, I've come to learn that the reviewers know very little about the operation of the bike and offer many opinions about operating but don't know about it. The manual is loaded with info.
Thank you for this video, the bike is tits....but I use to ride the MT09, which is a naked bike, and I traded it in for an R6....why? The wind protection was horrible, and I tried a aftermarket screen which did not help.
My advice , if you truly enjoy top speed and going fast, while being comfy....this is not the bike for you.
But if you like cruising, and hitting some canyons...this bike is for you.
It's a bike. If you like it, buy it and live with it. Oh my arms, oh my butt doesn't apply.
OC...at my age looks because less of a factor over functionality. I'd go with the GT if it did the job better.
I'm still on the fence about getting one of these....
I test drove one of these and yes it was powerful yes there was lots of torque but it’s also felt huge like a truck, was not my thing I’ve since tried a Ducati Diablo 1260 S hands-down so much more maneuverable better looking in my opinion and lighter
@@Blindspotnj Thanks for the insight, could only imagine how stiff it must have felt in corners it it rides like a truck 🚚
@@AkaBull just felt heavy to me. I'm the kind of guy that knows right away if it will be in my garage
@@blindspot1987 🤣🤣 I hear that, let us know what you finally decide on when you get it. Cheers mate 🙏
@Aka Bull Moto yeah I was on the fence with the rocket 3, still cannot stop smiling on the pure torque delivery of the rocket 3, I also test rode the Ducati Diablo 1260 S, just need another 24hrs to think, I’ll be dropping a deposit on one of them tomorrow.
This machine is not for the faint of heart.
No, but the Rocket 3 GT is!!!
OC: GT for me.
A beautiful beast - but they make it in matt black which is criminal.
14:03
dude's got a Pan America... that's neat!
Not digging that twist cap on the tank that looked like the opposite of effortless...def need a windscreen eh.
You don’t need to use the key on the gas cap. Leave it unlocked unless you’re parking in the ghetto. FJB 🖕🖕🇨🇳🇨🇳
Is this bike good for tall people?
I test drove a rocket a few days ago ready to say take my money before I got on. After about a half hour I came to the conclusion that this was not the bike for me.
It was powerful and very Torquay however it felt like a truck, I felt intimidated by it and I’m not a little guy. I’ve since test driven to Ducati Diavel 1260 S.
Better styling in my opinion extremely more comfortable than the rocket more maneuverable and super fun to ride this I found out after only a few minutes of riding.
I know there’s a love for the rocket and a lot of you guys like it but it simply was not the bike for me
it's a bike with no wind screen. There's not much difference at 80 mph between bikes with no wind screen. I can ride my Bobber all day at 65-70. It quickly gets tiring at 80+
NOT surprising this also happens on the Rocket. or any other naked bike
i think i can go for 350 miles ....i loved the bike
mountains? in GA? near ATL?
