Updated Rocket 3 be Released?

Guffer said:

Seeing as how the rumours suggest the next Rockets will have the same power/torque as the TFC, has anybody ridden the base R model and the TFC? Is there a noticeable difference in performance or is it marginal? I love my Rocket but the obvious power restrictions are a bit irksome. I’ve toyed with the idea of remapping but am too frit that things might get effed up.

Derestricting the electronic throttle in your stock base tune won’t eff anything up. This is essentially what Penner did.

This discussion about how Triumph might give you more power in the next model is reminiscent of the Rocket Roadster. This was billed as “unleash the power!”. All they did was to open up the secondary throttle plates more but not even all the way. By that time, everyone had opened them to 100%. Now you can do the same thing with the electronic throttle, as Penner has done. It would be nice if Triumph would offer higher compression pistons, cams, valves, porting, exhaust, but this is never going to happen.

*The ad for the new Roadster was “Unleash the Beast”. Drove me nuts.

Do we know if a Penner tune for the 2024 R US model is available yet?

There’s a Penner tune for vin’s after av5457 which all 2024 US R models must be. You’re asking if anyone with a US 2024 R tried to load it and what happened.

That would have been my next question, yes. I'm also in the beginning learning and research phase of TuneECU so I may not necessarily ask the right questions. Just because the new models are after av5457 does that mean it should work given that the bike's are pretty much the same?
