Punched up Rocket III
In the April 08 issue of Roadrunner, they modded a stock Triumph Rocket III w/a Jardine pipe and a Tuneboy mapping kit. The stock engine went from 140 hp/140 torque to 162/160 respectively! That's some serious HP & torque there! To top it off, the gas mileage went up from 36 to 39/40 MPG! Wowsa, now there's a great trade-off. Kinda makes you wonder why Triumph went and deboweled the Rocket III Tour. Think of the tourer that woulda made!
Kinda makes my ZZR1200 look weak in comparison, forget about the 115 RWHP of a Sprint!
