help Triumph Rocket 3 FAQ
How much horsepower and torque does the Triumph Rocket 3 produce?
The Triumph Rocket 3 is powered by a massive 2,500cc inline triple engine that produces an astonishing 163 horsepower and 221 Nm of torque. This gives it the highest torque figure of any production motorcycle in the world. The immense power allows for brutal acceleration at almost any speed.
What is the difference between the Triumph Rocket 3 R and the Rocket 3 GT?
The Rocket 3 R features mid-mount foot controls for a slightly more aggressive, standard riding position. The Rocket 3 GT, on the other hand, offers forward-mounted footboards and a redesigned seat for enhanced long-distance comfort. The GT also features a slightly different suspension setup to accommodate touring.
Does the Triumph Rocket 3 have riding aids and electronics?
Yes, despite its classic cruiser looks, the Rocket 3 is packed with modern technology including Cornering ABS and Traction Control. It also features multiple riding modes (Rain, Road, and Sport) to adjust the throttle response to road conditions. The bike utilizes a Torque Assist clutch to make heavy gear shifts much lighter.
Is the Triumph Rocket 3 too heavy for city riding?
While it is a heavyweight motorcycle, Triumph engineered the Rocket 3 with a low center of gravity that makes it surprisingly manageable at low speeds. It features premium Showa suspension and Brembo Stylema brakes to handle the weight safely. However, navigating tight traffic and U-turns still requires rider confidence due to its sheer size.
