Triumph USA
I am a Triumph rider from as far back as 1964. I am now riding a 2006 Rocket 3 and love it. It is better than any thing Harley Davidson make, allthough I love the bonnevilles they are not large...

Rockets Rule
I Also own a 2005 rocket which now has 17k miles.It truely is an awesome machine! I have installed a Triumph stage two kit and now it not only has more power but it also sounds fantastic! My wife rides a 2006 Bonneyville that has over 7000 miles logged. Both are great bikes and the fun factor is way up! You are right Harleys are boring.

Rocket 3
That thing is HUGE!!! BUT I have been told by many HD converts that it is the best touiring bike thet ever rode!! It has a bigger engine than my truck. I can imagine that it is as comfortable touring as it is large. My old crippled broken down body does OK w/ the Bonne. It was my 1st bike & will be my last! If I was able to do some long distance cruising- that would be my choice for sure!!! I have been told that its like driving a luxury car w/ 2 wheels. No HD rattle your teeth!!

Rocket III Touring
I agree.
I have a Harley Ultra Classic and so far, the 259 miles I have on my new Rocket III Touring have been fantastic. Time will be tell, but so far:
Better Handling, more acceleration, Higher top end, etc, etc. than my Ultra Classic!
