[Maelstrom]

It will be interesting to see if Indian does a straight four.

Early days and no one knows what they will come up with next.

LIKE THIS?

Is the triumph rocket roadster going to get developed any further or are they going to phase it out , as it seems that the new Thunderbird LT is triumphs new baby. I had three rockets and I love them, but is it the end of a iconic British bike , so they can concentrate on these models. My local dealer in the uk are finding it harder to push the rocket sales. But the Thunderbird are flying off the shelves. Let's see what you all think. As for me triumph could do a lot more with the bike . My opinion is by painting couple stripes over the tank and derestricting the gear box in the first three gears and giving it a dull paint job is not the way to go.

Hello !
Here in Austria and Germany the same rumor is going around....... But the reason is to 99% the emmisson-regulation !! Triumph must completly change the Construction/Enginemanagement, this is maybe not possible. (The Engineconstruction is from 2004!) I ask me what Boss Hoss or Harley is doing in this situation !?! (i have heard: HD finished selling V-Rod next jear) We will see whats going on......

Afraid the new Thunderbirds in whatever guise they come in do little to excite me .. for the sake of a few kilos you loose all the torque and horsepower of the Rocket , don't make sense to me. But they are selling well worldwide and at the end of the day that's what manufacturers want... bikes sold on masse.

The thunderbird is a poofters bike

Um, they did with the Roadster. October 2009.

There's enough informatin on this site to resolve every problem with the Rocket. Either that or their R&D department could care less. If it wasn't for this site i'd have dumped the Rocket back in 2008. You ask most dealers around my neck of the woods simple questions about the Rocket and most don't have a clue. Tell them you want to go to the darkside or have the beaver done and they scratch their heads..
