Nice one! All you MCN reviewers are great. I don't have a lot of desire for this beast, but I appreciate that it's around. I demoed it last year - lots of fun.
This thing is insane. That torque is nuts. Good review, good honest dude 👍
This bike looks huge online but I was surprised how compact it is live in-person.
Great reviewer! He surely was someone important in the British government in his previous life)
I have had the TFC variant for 4 years now, love it! Quick shifter is sublime, well worth the investment. Average 46mpg over 20,000 miles. I don't hang about but not heavy on the brakes, so fairly efficient. Sport mode is insane! These new Storm models look great.
Masterpiece in motorcycling engineering.
Really good overview, thank you Dan. Not my kind of bike at all but interesting to see.
As for faults, I'd say the lack of a reverse gear is one. Just my opinion, of course.
Ludicrous. But probably my fave cruiser - and the ridiculous engine size makes it all the better. And that GT should imo be stretched into a better genuine tourer - separate it more from the R with a bigger tank, real luggage (and pillion) options and it would surely be a much better long distance bikes than any of those R18 tour variants.
Nice review of a great looking bike. Just a bit too heavy for me. 😊
IMO, it would look a lot better with a single 8-inch headlight and a pair of spots.
Not a cruiser type, but keen to give this a go.
What an amazing review mate.
Totally agree with you, that it looks really intimidating but as soon as u start riding it becomes so easy.
I was lucky enough to buy the 1st storm in India and it was just an amazing experience.
Would love to see a comparison video of with and without a quick shifter.
Thanks have a great day.
Triumph had demo of their new lineup yesterday in my area. They had advertised ahead for weeks that the Rocket3 would be one of the bikes to try. I go there, just to be told that they had sold it off and did not have any other to demo. They even tried to sell me a Speed Triple I wasn`t even allowed to demo.
Great vid , thank you.. My question is, if you drop it, can you pick it up on your own ?
Only if your first name is "Thor"
I think I might struggle!
You can if you don't skip leg day.
I love the bike for its size that gives it a real presence no car driver can ignore . Shaft drive brilliant,fwd controls a terrible idea. I like the R with the high screen and I’ve never had a bike with a quick shifter so I wouldn’t miss it.
I have a 2023 Rocket-R model, and the crowd that this Bike Attracts during Bike Nights it makes Every Harley-Davidson in the crowd disappear. I love to park it, and have people look at it. And I did have to buy the Quick-Shifter, and the heated grips on my R model
Obviously not much has changed since my Moto Guzzi Griso 1100 from 2006: Lots of displacement in a low number of cylinders and shaft-drive do not combine to be a quick shifting ride. With experience you can still shift without clutch but I would not recommend this as the standard-gearchange ...
hallo !!
hallo from Greece !!
These bikes are so heavily restricted from the factory after tune they are beasts :)
😂 I think standard power would be more than quick enough for me.
What sort of power figures are the tuned ones putting out?
@@paulhope3401 triumph shows 180hp at crankshaft on dyno it is 149-150, after flash 180 to the wheel, on crankshaft 210~ 😉 but free flow air filter required and decat 😉
@@Dzinbhudist That would make it a total beast indeed...
Great bike ❤
Sure the controls aren't back-lit? Coz they are on mine, last years model, so why would they not have them on this years?
Mine are back lit too
"Ginormous" is not a word. It's a fad word and a bad fad word at that. HOWEVER I love your review and it has good information.
Ginormous is an adjective. A word made up from two words. ‘Earliest Known Usage: 1942’ Not actually a fad is it ?
A deposit on the house in the UK?? Man I should consider moving there.
Can I have one in pink?
I want them to make a 2.5 single cylinder.....
Would be fun to have for a weekend but ownership doesn’t make sense.
A) £23,000 used to be to buy a house and B) Quickshifter when you have that much torque? Nah.
This or a Grom? 🤔
Depends on whether you need to compensate for something else... 😉
@@paulhope3401 🤔
The Rocket engine in a Grom.
@@joeblow5037 😄
Too much money. Too quiet. Too smooth. Cruisers need to be a bit lumpy. Nice bike but not for me. I had the 1700cc Thunderbird. More soul. Sounded good.
23k and a gearbox that misses gears sometimes?? Pfft why is this still acceptable in motorcycle industry in. G 2024. Imagine buying a new car and salesman says this car is great but the gearbox is clunky and misses a gear every now and then lol. Good review tho
I’m not thinking about sustainability or life after petrol.
There is no life after petrol.
Petrol’s not going away

Nice bikes but unfortunately no much nice colors..dark colors not good to see the bike details 😕
Bro, come off it. I can see your little feet scraping when you're barely leaned over. No way in hell this is as capable in twisties as naked let alone sports bikes.
Came here to say this. If you lean anymore i think you'll get face planted by your own knee!!
With a capable rider on the Rocket, I think it would surprise a few people on a backroad. For such a big bike, it's surprisingly flickable.
Clearly , you have not ridden one?....do so, and you will be surprised
@@terryyates5131 I can see his feet scraping barely leaned over. You don't need to ride a bike to be able to see it doesn't have the ground clearance to corner.
That's because you're watching him lean on the GT. The R is a very capable scratcher
Until now, all new models were better than older. From now on, the new models will be worse.
A quick shifter ? Really ? 😂 what’s the point ? It’s not a sports bike !!! 160 miles on a tank ? 😂
I don't know about rhis bike..its kinda good in the way a hybusa is good. Bit yeah its all about credit control.
