I'm not particularly in favour of the move away from a cruiser/muscle bike to a more boy-racer look...be ok if the bike had the performance to match litre+ bikes but sadly in stock form it won't.

Great Point! It may end up like the Diavel as a bike with no category, maybe that's a good thing. Maybe Triumph want to merge categories so as to produce fewer models.
 
It's not everyone's cup of tea but at least Triumph didn't abandon the Rocket. Once they come out and we get information on the riding 'experience' then we can judge them a little better because now we can only critique the appearance. The pressure will be on the members here that are on the list to buy one. I hope they give us an in depth review so we have more to go on. Me personally, I'm geeked up about it.

I hope we get honest reviews. It would be kinda hard to drop that kind of cha ching, and then talk smack on it.
 
Boy, you're little miss sunshine tonight.
Am lit up. Took me a bit do go down and pick up the boat. Miss my brother in law a lot. Him and i were good friends long before i met his younger sister. She is sixty five and we have been married for the last 20 years. Been a rough afternoon. Brought the boat up and found a note in it. "Sonny make me proud"Sent wife off to the Casino. Me am just plotting and thinking. Gonna make this boat special. Very special. Gonna take a lot of work and Modifications. Wife saw the note and said am out of here. She saw the tears and the mind turning. Folks you ain't seen nothing yet. When i'm done it will a boat from hell. Ain't listen to smart ass comments from anybody. :D:D:D:D:D:D Gonna give it my best. Money and time plus knowledge walking the back waters and i do mean walking because nobody has built a boat that can get there is going to happen.
 
The bike is a piece of crap. Sorry for being so direct but look at what it is. A scalded down version of the original rocket. A cheap imitation of the of the Italian bikes. Guess Truimph figured a sucker is born every day. Their Bonneville's can not hold a candle to the new Indians scout. Sorry Truimph but you are screwed up. Go after your dudes in fancy boots but for some of us we just want a little bit more than what your offering.

:rolleyes: Fair enough if you've changed your mind on it but calling someone a sucker because they are buying one is laughable. I know who'll be calling out "sucker" when you come across one of these while you're riding your pretty new Yammy....
