Hello all thought I would create a profile and introduce myself as I've been scouring these forums all day getting some great information! I bought my very first Triumph on Monday, a 2016 Rocket 3 Roadster (my last bike was a Honda Interstate which is basically a fury with some touring extras). My Rocket has the matte black and white racing stripe finish. I named her "Penelope" (after Penelope the cat from Loony Tunes who if you recall is the unfortunate center of Pepe Le Peu's ceaseless adoration) due to the color scheme - I also feel it is a good and proper name.
I am more than delighted with this bike. Riding it has been a pure joy. It is amazingly powerful, torquey, balanced, and nimble. It's also quite the head turner - you do not see a lot of Rockets in Salt Lake. Even my Harley "bagger bro" buddies I ride with respect and love it.
The motorcycle runs well with only one issue - coolant has been draining from the overflow tube after I turn the bike off after a long ride. I surmise I have to replace the radiator cap as I do not think it has ever been replaced. Once this issue is solved Penelope will be fully ready to roll! Anyhow, I do hope to interact with you all and learn more about this fantastic machine!
