At the dealership - 2018 Rocket to get 2500 ccs

If it can't haul two up and carry some stuff, it's of no interest to me. For me, a new touring model, that looks more like a standard, with removable windscreen and saddlebags, with equal or more power, might coax some money out of my tight arse.
 
Yea same here. Don't want or need a funky looking copy cat. Like the Rocket X very much. Comfortable and very practical. Rides two when required. Can back sh*t on long runs. The pics of the new rocket are a big disappointment. No need or desire to buy a copy cat. Come on Truimph pull your head out of your As$.
 
Yes I was hoping they would of made the tank cemetrical and do a nicer and smaller radiator with nicer rims and perhaps a belt drive so a nice 300 tire can be put on the back , and stock 200 hp and a 2.5 with 6 gears would be perfect in my opinion
 
Not sure why Triumph would copy the Diavel. It's not like those are exactly flying off the shelves. I don't believe I've ever seen one in the wild.
 
sonny, we all have are individual likes, not sure how liking a 300 tire works out not riding much.
 

No quandry here stick with R3. I need a bike for multiple use so my R3 doubles as tourer, sportbike and sometimes off roader. Its a lunatic bike that shouldnt exist and i like it for that

The UK dealerships still say that the Rocket is ended never to be manufactured again. All the regulations prohibit manufacture. Great if you own one - they can only appreciate in value similar to the large muscle bikes GSX1400 and SHE.

I think this is the true pic...
 
I just want the same bike with 17 inch rims, that's all i ask at this point, just fing 17 inch rims...

A proper 200/60R17 would improve every aspect of the R3R.
