I’m the bleary-eyed fellow yakking with Jay. Thanks to everyone for watching. This was an incredible experience. I wish we could have delved into some of the more technical aspects of the bike, but I’m so happy the feel of it translated. It truly is a remarkable machine. Thank you as well to Jay and his amazing team. Exploring the garage never fails to take away my breath.

I was so impressed with this engine when it first came out and always felt it never achieved the success it deserved, it's great to see Triumph is still working on it and now it seems more tempting than ever. Have you guys ever considered using this engine in a go cart or mini car, I thought it had potential to create it's own class perhaps track only. If I had some extra money burning a hole in my pocket I'd by the bike Jay rode.

@blairtaylor9552

That number is DRY, and probably the R, not the GT. Dry doesn't make sense anyway. These are more like 700 lbs. WET. Still way lighter than Harley/Indian baggers..

I bought one of the limited edition TFC versions. I had one of the older Rocket 3's previously (plus a T120 and a couple of Harleys) and just love this bike more than anything. It handles so much better than the previous version and, as Jay says, it stops really well when you consider its weight. The weight is low down so its dead easy to balance. I love mine. Its number 448 out of only 750 made and the TFC edition is slightly different from both the ones on Jay's show. The finishes are amazing. It has so much torque that 1st and 2nd are almost unnecessary. It is an incredible piece of engineering. Like Jay I am also getting a bit old for Café Racer positions. This is ideal for me. I love it. It's like taking a big, happy puppy out for a walk (well maybe a bit more challenging than that).

Thanks so much for making these videos, Jay. Sincerely. I’ve binged watched most of them during the current situation, and it’s so much fun to live vicariously through another gearhead. Stay healthy!

Checks all the box’s for an experienced (older like Jay) rider: torque puts a smile on his face, comfortable riding position not painful, safe handling and stopping gets you there And back, vintage heritage but modern engineering, Most importantly, especially these days, the joy of riding - Fun!

When I was a kid growing up on Air Force bases, I used to see a lot of Triumph Bonnevilles because the young airmen bought them. I always liked the look !!!

Every time I watch a Leno's Garage episode, I'm reminded of my dad, who got me into motorcycles and absolutely loved watching Jay's channel as well as the tonight show. He was a car guy too and passed away with 13 project cars, after just completing his dream garage. His garage had a bathroom, air conditioning, about as much shelving for parts as an Autozone warehouse, and four brand new hydraulic lifts. Sad to see he really didn't get to work on the cars in his new dream garage, but he told me before that for him the fun was in the project itself, not the completion of it, so because of that I've got to think he really enjoyed himself building that garage that took years. Sometimes the anticipation is better than the final result. I kept his American Graffiti '32 Ford Coupe to finish myself because it was the star of his garage and his favorite I think. I will take it to cruises in tribute to my dad.

I've been seriously considering a Rocket lll. I'm so happy to see Jay do this bike at this time. I'm sold.

Friend in high school had a B.S.A. rocket three in the 70,s. I lusted over it.. Was huge for the day.

So depressing lately, watching Leno talk about bikes and cars brings a smile to my face without fail.

The thing is love about this bike is really just the amount of practical power an engine with this displacement provides for real every day riding. Most powerful bikes need to be made to scream to really get that power. This big of an engine has a deep amount of power to be called on at any time in any gear at any rpm. This is coming from someone who rides a 600 sport bike. It’s exciting and I love it, but if I had the financial resources this is what I’d throw my leg over. I love making a beautiful bike scream but my bike doesn’t have the range that a bike like this has

I had a chance to ride one when Triumph brought a trailer load of bikes to my hometown dealer (MCC in Villa Pk. IL) I picked the new Rocket 3 to ride. It seems Triumph changed anything that might have become a problem. Impressively light on its feet and way better now after the diet. Well done!

Jay clearly loves the bike, he can't stop playing with it.

Two other cool features not mentioned: Both the R version and the GT version have steel-braided brake lines, and use Brembo Stylema calipers, which are the best in the business. The only cool feature missing in stock form is a quick shifter, but that is available from Triumph's accessory catalog. The first generation Rocket 3 was produced from 2004-2019, but was aesthetically challenged. This 2nd generation Rocket 3 drops 90 pounds, and adds beauty. It's a winner.

Picking up my GT next week. Can't wait. Utterly awesome. The extraordinary bike for the slightly unhinged discerning gentleman. It shouldn't exist but it does. Mental!

Im not a Triumph fan but I do have to admit thats a dam good looking bike.

Jay: Thank you for showcasing the Triumph Rocket 3! Please ride the GT version too. I was all set to purchase the R version, but a test ride on both had me falling in love with the GT. The foot pegs on the GT have four levels of adjustability, so you can have the pegs feet-forward, or in the same position as the R version. Plus the seat on the GT is more comfortable versus the R version.

I already had two bikes (a 14’ Street Triple and 10’ Aprilia RSV 1000 R) but wanted a brand new cruiser bike that I didn’t have to wrench all the time either and I test rode the GT version and LOVED it. The torque is really indescribable. But at the last minute I decided on a 2018 KTM Super Duke that was in the same dealership. Lol. It’s bonkers torque too. But I know I’ll eventually get a Rocket 3. So comfy too. Ride safe!

The pegs on the GT have only 3 levels of adjustability, not 4. And no one has the same position than the R, it's just to adapt to different rider leg lengths. However, you can get the R pegs installed on the GT as an option.

The R looks better overall.

Daver G Old reliable those Vulcans. For me I just dig motorcycles. I love destroying off the line but I also love catching up and overtaking with crazy top end like my old K7 Gixer 1000. Actually the Super Duke does both. Lol. I dunno. Just as long as the brakes are good, I guess?

I own the T120 Bobber and a 10 yr old Thunderbird 1600. Rock solid bikes. My dealer complained that the bikes are too well built. They can't make any money on repairs and riders don't even bring em back for service very often.

You're right. I'm 50yrs old soon enough, never rode until a few years back, got a 2021 R1 and still had those chicken strips that always bothered me, so I sold it on, got a Rocket 3 R instead, and surely enough, that's a motorcycle I'll never sell! Just like my 2001 Speed Triple, something about Triumph bikes that just makes my bits tingle in the right places! Also, black motorcycles is the only real motorcycles!

I'm not really a bike person but that is stunning.

This varient of Rocket3 looks like American Tomahawk mated with Italian diavel... And made a baby

Thanks for another great video! Please stay well and safe during these trying days!

I had a 2014 Rocket III touring. Except for the heat from the engine and it wouldn't start in freezing weather, it was amazing. A car on two wheels with that power and torque. I didn't have ABS brakes. I'd never get another bike without ABS. I've got a 2000 BMW K1200LT now and its my everyday bike in and out of Manhattan and NJ. Love your show and this episode caught my eye.

Ahhh...to be able to see and ride anything and go, "Yeah..I'm gonna get one tomorrow." :) :) Very cool bikes.

Hopefully, you'll find yourself in that position too one day. Work hard, work smart and save your Shekels. Good luck to ya.

@3:50 "Very stable motorcycle." You know that comment is going to be analyzed unto death and beyond.

Jay's depth of knowledge is amazing. He's is the oracle!

It's obvious Jay is going to buy one of these, age has its benefits, what a great host and guy he is.

I love the ride part more than the specs . Just Jay touring through the Cali hills (which I will never get to do) and talking about stuff .

Riding position, excellent suspension.

Just watched the episode of the Triumph Rocket. I love that bike! I've never ride one. But I gotta tell you that I have a bike that I just love like crazy. Back in 2017 I saved up in one year's time to purchase a brand new Indian Vintage painted Willow Green/Ivory Cream. Beautiful bike that's modern technology but classic looks. Buuuut when I pulled up to the dealership to see if my bike was in, I saw a bike sitting outside against the windows on display in the back row that made me stop in my tracks! So Dave the salesman saw me outside and came out and said, Hey Tony we have your bike inside. Just came in!" I replied back with a ho hum answer back like "Hmm...thanks....but what the heck is this!?!" He said, Oh... that's called a Rune"! I said, "What's a Rune"?! He told me they're rare and that you just never see em on the road. Well now that I've blabbed on long enough here, I didn't get the Indian Vintage. I ended up buying the Rune! I love it! I ride it often and get double takes EVERYWHERE I go! Phones come out to take pictures. When I am putting gas in it people walk over and ask what it is and say how beautiful of a bike it is. Mine is the Maroon color and is the Chromed Wheel version. Most of them had polished wheels. They Chromed just a handful of the bikes wheels. My understanding is that Tom Hanks has or had one. But I've only seen it a couple times on the road of other people riding one. But luckily I get to see one every day. Anyway there's my story. Hope you like it.

Jay's chin helps improve his motorcycles aerodynamics! 🤣
