Why The Rocket 3 R Is The BEST Cruiser Motorcycle I've Ridden | Triumph Rocket 3 R Review

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

💭 I had a Triumph Rocket 3 R in my garage for an entire month. It was a blast to own Triumph Motorcycle's best engineering to date even if only for a short period of time. Here are my collective thoughts on what it's like to own a Rocket 3 R.

I have a picture of John Goodman with my bike!!! I just bought it Wednesday with 1300 Miles on it!!!! I didn't know how I got so lucky! I couldn't even find this color on Google and that's why I called triumph for more info.

    Love my GT I have 37,000 miles plus on it now. Still smiling. I changed from the forward controls to the mid controls and I am much happier with that position. I cant control the bike any better but it is much much more comfortable riding position for me. With the forward controls you have to use your leg muscles on the pegs but with the mid controls gravity keeps your feet on the pegs. Just my two cents worth.

    I have a Rocket 3 GT triple black (limited edition). It is a gorgeous bike and everything you say it is and then some. I agree with you about the forward vs mid controls. I’ve ridden an R with mids and prefer the forward controls. I am not saying that’s better or trying to be right. That’s just what suits me. A couple of other things I prefer about the GT is the bars and the seat. The bars are more swept back on the GT and put you in a more comfortable position for longer cruiser like rides. The GT seat is also different. It is lower to the ground which I like. You feel like you are sitting in the Rocket rather than on it. It also is more comfortable for general riding and holds you firmly in place under hard acceleration. The GT comes with heated grips standard and a few other things. The heated grips are optional on the R. The R is a great bike and will be just the thing for many riders. I went to the Triumph dealer looking for an R and ended up getting a GT because of the forward controls, bars and seat. The least talked about but makes the biggest difference is the GT bars. They are perfect for me. The cool thing is the bars, foot controls and seats are all interchangeable between the R and GT models. I know a character with an R that switched to the GT seat. I also know of several GT riders that put mid controls on their GT. At least one switched them back. Interesting video. Not the normal format for you but I enjoyed it.

But everything from cruising long distance, commuting to and from work, city traffic, and being a hooligan with my sport bike friends (keeping up too in a straight line and corner carving), I've enjoyed every single mile I've put on in a years time and there's 12,000 of them so far. Awesome video and it's great to hear your impressions since you have experience in the muscle cruiser category. You'll have to try a GT sometime since it has the forward controls

    37,000 miles and counting on my GT and I still get the stupid grin when I hit the throttle. BTW, I changed out the forward pegs for the mid pegs and love the switch. I cant maneuver any better or anything but its a much more comfortable ride for me. I am doing an Iron Butt 1000 miles in a day challenge in two weeks and I know it will be much easier for me with the mid pegs.

Dealership was nice enough to loan it to me for like four days when I had my Speed Triple 955i (2001) in service. I'm definitly not a cruiser guy with my crotch rockets, and I also got to ride the GT version. Gave me lower back pain in like an hour, as with the R, I can ride that all day long. However, whatever flavour you pick, I'm pretty sure you wont be disappointed with it! Just like my old Speedy, I will NEVER sell this motorcycle!

The shift assist is awesome, full throttle up shift and downshift in Sport 😎 and they reckon they shaved 80kgs (176lbs) because the EuroV added 40kgs 😎 the torque is addictive but then after that every other bike feels gutless in the mid range.. including the Diavel 1260S which is a fast bike when you rev it out 👿 I would say the size of the bike would not suit a new rider, far better they learn balance on a smaller bike.. they will than appreciate Rocket even more.

    The Triumph GT is by far the most beautiful bike out there as of today. They did superb job designing it. The GT's color combo is prefect. I own 2020 Goldwing Tour. I took a ride on the GT and I have to say and do not know why, I was not that comfortable after like 30 mins riding. I am 6'4", long legs and something was missing with my sitting position. It is a killer bike and the details and beauty is unmatched. I hope they will bring hard cases and maybe top case too? All should be removable. Also, more cruising accessories. I am keeping an eye for possible future improvements/changes. Nice review, brother.

That said, those and the VMax are kings of the hill. So….MEATINESS huh! LOL>…made me miss by 280 on the 109 again. Keep the vids coming.

    First time on the channel, very informative so thank you for the review. Judging by your love of muscle bikes, your next target ought to be the VMAX 1700. I have ridden the previous Rocket 3 and compared it to my VMAX. The VMAX is considerably more vicious than the Rcket 3 despite the larger displacement of the Triumph. It would be interesting to see a comparison with this Rocket 3.

    Quick question. When riding this motorcycle in the rain, will the back tire spin up all the water and mud on the back of your jacket and helmet due to the lack of rear guard to protect you from all the backsplash ?

    @@BrandonBicasso I had asked that question because several people 'claimed' that the they experienced 'mud splashes' because the rear guard isn't long enough to catch the water that splash upwardly. Another quick question I have, based on some research, is, have you ever experienced any "electrical issues" with your Triumph because Triumph is known to have electrical issues(from dead batteries, etc..ect..) on their bikes and even on the Rocket 3R/GT ?

    Great video, well thought out. Even had subtitles for the hearing impaired😝. I've had my 2020 Rocket GT for over two years, and I love it. Wish I had more time to ride, only have 5300 miles on it currently. Question for anybody: That engine is so held back by the Euro5 emission regs, what would be the best mod to unleash more power without breaking the bank? Not looking to have a Carpenter supercharger added or anything that elaborate, but is there a good tune/flash available that would make a noticeable uptick in available power? There's a lot more in that engine than is available stock, I can feel it.......
