Could it be true?

Thinking about it, that looks like a "Hooligan" bike.

When visiting with the Triumph Factor Rep a few years ago and the USA Marketing VP at Bonneville Salt Flats, I made sure they heard what we talk about on here. I told them both the new Rocket needs to have several iterations such as a full blown cross continent touring bike, a standard bike, a lite tourer, and a full blown "Hooligan" bike with turbo or supercharging. Let's hope they listened. Let's hope it is TRUE.

It still has a barn door for a radiator!

That is so it can get rid of all the extra heat the new 2500 or 2800 cc engine makes.

The engine's in the hollow tank. It's 1.0 litres supercharged. The rest is just for show - well that's what the HD rep told me.

Always trust a HD dealer. They know what they're talking about...............

I dont understand the desire to make cruisers look like upright ****** rockets

It does indeed.

But also looks a bit STRETCHED. Not too long before the Italy show. Mind you I am tbh not all that interested.
