Picked my baby up one year ago today!!

10685 miles later, I can only say that this is the most incredible motorcycle ever produced!!!

Triumph is truly an appropriate word for this motorcycle, for it is a triumph in every sense of the word.

Fierce acceleration, unmatched torque, ominous presence, and a great uniqueness.

The Rocket has changed the cruiser paradigm, and it's very clear that other manufacturers are vainly scrambling to match up to the unmatchable Triumph Rocket.

Just wanted to mark this occasion with a post, and to hoist one for this awesome motorcycle!!!

Hooray Triumph!!!

Hooray Rocket III

ride on

its the triple that has them all stuffed...no matter how big they build their twins they are still sludge pumps....the triple is a good middle road...torq v power plant and no one wants a massive 4 cyclinder to lug around

agree about the triple assessment. . .and as a former H-D owner/rider, I must admit how I've grown to enjoy the growl that turns to a howl when you twist the Rocket's throttle and wind up that massive triple. . .

way too much fun!!!

ride on
