2020 production Rocket 3 spotted


I meant beating a TFC in a race Tripps.
 
I like the new TFC. It is beautiful and looks well thought out. I think it will be a good handling bike. Can't wait to see it and ride it. I am interested in seeing how many versions Triumph will let us have access to. I am hoping they will make many versions like they are doing with the 1200 Bonneville line. One day I will own one.
 
Claviger, that’s a big bet doesn’t the new Rocket stock have over 200hp and torque? And lighter
170 to 180hp I think so close would be the how good the rider is?
Do you have Nev cams and pistons?
Or is it the carpenters kits?
I am struggling what one I’m going to put in my bike,just want to see how much my custom work will be before I decide.
 
I'm not into racing, well ok, maybe the occasional Harley, but I do like my face being pulled back I knew there was a reason I didn't like my windshield

Bring on the torque

Hoopla
 
I think the pre 20's have a much more brutish stance, 20,s have more style and better parts. 20's,A few pounds lighter, mine pulls my face off and leaves a smile, doesn't need to loose weight.

Hoopla
I think some are confusing the limited '19 TFC edition and the later '20 production version pictured in this thread.
 
Confusion reigns!
2 different new 2.5 litre Rockets. The 2019 TFC limited edition and the production 2020 that this thread started with.
Either over 200hp = NO

I’ll bet titles that my 2014 modified R3R will beat my newly ordered TRC in a race . Oh wait I will already hold both titles.

I’m not buy the new bike to out run the old one, I have other reasons besides horse power and weight and speed.
 
Well I’m not alone in my thinking then.

I’m considering taking off that huge 6+ gallon gas tank and going with a 1.5 gallon peanut tank to save weight and go faster

Edit, darn if I ever proof read I wouldn’t need to edit every post

Third edit, thoughtful proof reading would require deleting most all of my posts.
