It is time to move on from my anemic cruisers, so a Rocket is in order. I have been scouring information on this website for the past two weeks trying to decide the right rocket year and model to buy. Time to ask for insight.
First - upon purchase the bike it is immediately going to Carpenter...
Recently purchased a new-to-me Rocket 3 Touring. It is still in transit so I haven’t had the privilege of riding it, but enjoyed a test ride a few months back on a different R3T. That sold me. I have been lurking the forum for a while, but glad to be here as a fellow member.
Interesting reading some of the comments on this article.
Honda Valkyrie ABS Vs. Triumph Rocket III Roadster | Review
I can think of several ladies here that ride or have ridden their Rocket III's just fine.
I had visions of doing long weekend rides away but it just ain’t happening, and I can’t justify a new bike sitting in the shed, hasn’t even clicked over 3000 kilometres yet.
So it’s time to go.
Low ks......2963 kilometres!
Seat is from jcs motorcycles $182 plus $380 to have it re shaped, you...
Good evening all. Just gone to lay the bike up for winter and shes been stood outside for 2 months and no good for her. A friend kindly offered to put it in her garage for the winter.
Went to start her up for the move and as usual the battery needed a boot. Charged the battery overnight and...
Others on here must have seen the links which suggest a new Rocket III may be in production next year. I've posted this here because the bike looks more like the Roadster in that the foot pegs are mid-placed. I tried to download a photo, but the link wouldn't let me. The best article is MCN's...
I hooked up Tune ECU and now the bike will not start. Power stops at the starter relay. I tested it and it is good. Also, purchased another to make sure. Battery has plenty of power. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Ok so following on from my custom made 2500cc Rocket III side panel badge, @Jvheli had the idea of getting them made with Carpenter Racing logo on them.
We can supply these for £20 each + shipping if anyone is interested

I got to take about a 15 mile ride today on the Rocket. I knew what to expect before getting on it but until you actually experience it ... thats another thing. I couldn't wait to ride this torque monster. just blip the throttle and off you go .. Torque ready and willing at the twist of your...
As a proud owner of a Triumph Rocket III and an avid Reddit user, I wanted to create a place for all like-minded individuals to hang out and share ideas. Sure there are countless legacy websites Movies series world out there offering forum platforms to connect and talk about your R3 needs, but...
which bike to you ride more and why was recently at a hd dealership and looking at their CVO streetGlide selling for a 42.9 it is an incredible bike but with financing costs added in you're looking at a cool 60k investment....ouch
Well a very wet trip across the city to meet up with Tal & his mate Gary.
Then down the Road in Showers all the way.
Arrived at the venue paid the entry fee and could smell burning plastic I think that's got to be my leatherlik panniers!
Asked the bloke where do you want us to park? He said...
i purchased this from a custom motorcycle exhaust fabricator in Brisbane. About a week after I ordered and paid for it, a rare raask 3-1 exhaust pipe came up for sale which I also purchased! One has to go- this is brand new!
I paid $390.00AU. Will take $350.00 au, buyer pays freight.

I was hanging out at my buddy's repair shop, and I watched a guy pull into the parking lot of a kitchen supply store across the street on a new Triumph Rocket 3. He tried to make a U-turn and dropped the bike. He tried to pick it up, but I think they weigh about 800lbs, and it just wasn't going...
