The
Triumph Rocket III is a whirling, mechanised cyclone of power.
Its three fuel-injected cylinders displace a monstrous 2,294cc
and pump out 147lb-ft of torque.
That amazing output is fed to the giant 240-section rear tyre
via a five-speed gearbox and shaft drive, while the massively
strong steel frame, upside-down forks and Triumph Daytona 955i spec four-piston brake
calipers elementally contain the Rocket III's potential.
But
the Rocket III is in possession of fine balance. Of course it
demands respect on all levels but it remains a truly useable
machine, and will tour highways, cruise streets and hustle turns
with effortless ability. The Rocket III may be the largest capacity
production motorcycle in the world but it's designed to be ridden.
