Updated Rocket 3 be Released?

[vsteel]

I would like to see an easier to change air filter.

 

[Rockatansky]

yea, i dont see any change coming soon other than colors

Your profecy had become reality: one revolutionary new colour - that's all.

17"x6 rear wheel is the real needed upgrade, but they won't do it.

Actual good tires are verboten on Rocket 3s if you ask Triumph.

They added a few HP and torque on the older gen Rocket after 6 or 7 years if I remember correctly. They also added ABS. Maybe the new gen Rockets will receive the same HP/torque or a newer tune. I can't see triumph going more than 6 years without doing something to the Rocket because by then used Rockets will be more available and why spend $15K more on a new '2028' when a used 2022 will be available with 20K miles for a steal. Just my opinion.

How about a Rocket Trike. If Triumph looks at the age demographic of our members I’m sure they would make them.

If we are really going a different direction, I think the best touring bike would be an Indian Roadmaster style of bike with a R3 power plant with shaft drive. A real long touring machine.

I’ve said that before. If I could fit the new R3 motor in my RM it would be the best touring machine ever.

Triumph needs a touring bike. The basics are already there.

A real touring bike not like the old versions of the "Touring". Must have a full fairing, full size lockable hard bags equal to Harley or Indian, fixed lower fairings, floorboards fore and aft, an engine guard bar that will accomodate pegs, sat NAV, four speaker stereo that is bluetooth and flash drive compatible and a rear top box painted to match. Actually Triumph has nothing like this in their line up.

Wouldn't it be easier to take the windscreen out of your car
