Finally have a Triumph again! Just signed for a 2024 Rocket 3 R - Houston, TX

[SpaceCityRocketman]

My previous Triumph bikes were a 2013 Thruxton 900 and a 2015 Thunderbird Nightstorm 1700. I had to sell the Thunderbird a couple years ago after getting laid off and I’ve been itching to get back on a Triumph ever since.

I’ve wanted one of the current-gen Rockets since the first time I saw one, but I honestly never thought I’d be in a position to own one.

I left the bike there so they could install the Quick Shift kit before I bring it home, so all I have for now are these showroom pics. I’ll pick it up just in time for my 42nd birthday at the beginning of January. Can’t wait to hit the road as a Rocketman!

Is anyone else here near Houston, Texas?

Good stuff!..youll love it!....Word of advise...watch this vid and set your suspension up!...The preload is on the very hardest ride from factory and it will give your back grief!....Just watch the video right thru then maybe set it going again...pause adjust run..pause adjust....All the best.

Greetings from sunny North Texas. Great looking ride. Before you leave the dealership request they adjust your static sag. That will get you on the road to correct suspension setting. Enjoy your new wheels.
