For those fortunate enough to be taking delivery of their new R3s, I met up with my mate on Friday who is the head technician at our main Triumph dealership . Altho I had my fingers in my ears and was singing " I know a song that will get on your nerves " , He told me that he had just finished a 2 week training course at Hinkley with the new Rocket . He says that bike is a marvel of modern engineering and Triumph have really learned from past mistakes in the design and build of these bikes ! Electrics are not his thing and anything solid state can fail , but those engines are in his words , bulletproof , along with perfect brakes and chassis . It's not often I hear him rave about any bike , never in fact. But I had to sing my song at least 3 times before he would shut up !
