At the heart of every Rocket III is a motor
with a sound so distinct you can hear it a
mile off. No other engine in the world
growls like a triple. It’s assembled in the
surgical surroundings of one of the most
advanced factories in the world and
continually refined by a Design and
Development department that runs to over
100 people. Like everyone at Triumph, they
live, breathe, eat and sleep the bikes.

To make innovative, exciting motorcycles,
you have to have passion like this.
Without it, you might as well make
shopping carts. Talk to anyone from the
factory; talk to the dealers; talk to
Triumph riders - they love these bikes.
And the Rocket III is the perfe ct
expression of all that Triumph stand for:
State of the art technology, stunningly
delivered.

Why does this bike
make everyone who
rides it grin like a
kid in a sweet shop?

Maybe because when you thumb the
starter, you feel like you’ve just poked a
bear with a sharp stick and you’re not
sure if it’s going to eat you from the
boots up. True, the Rocket III is a cruiser
with astonishing performance but as soon
as you ride it you realise that the luscious,
inexhaustible flow of power from the
triple’s 2.3 liter engine can be reined
in with two fingers. That the low centre of
gravity and composed riding position give
you a fine sense of balance and control.

So, if you want to scorch along - scorch
away. But if you want to hang in top, drop
the revs to barely believable and proceed at
a leisurely pace, you can do that too. And
while we’re on about manners, a word
about handling: The Rocket III s ails round
corners that would make most cruisers
twitch. Grin? You may find yourself
laughing out loud.

ROCKET II I Classic

11

This is the Rocket III for riders who
like their thrills laced with a bit of chill.
The torquey motor stays the same, the
ergonomics change, making the Classic
the perfect bike for those lazy, long haul
trips. Bars are higher and pulled back
further; you get footboards to stretch
out on and the pillion gets a more
generous seat. Almost yogic.

The low centre of gravity and light as a
feather clutch make manoeuvring a breeze
and the motor sounds gorgeous - 2294 cc
gently massaging the vital organs of
anyone you pass. That’ll be practically
everybody then.

Thrill with chill

ROCKET II I Classic Tourer

13

The silver-engined Classic Tourer is the
classic Rocket III, accessorize d to make it
the most complete, two-up touring
machine in the range.

Standard accessories include a roadster
style screen to maximize touring comfort,
keeping monster bugs and the worst of
the weather out of your face; full leather
bags that swallow enough gear to take you
clear across Texas and a sissy bar to make
sure passengers and luggage stay tucked
in snugly behind you.

Tour de force

The screen, sissy bar and luggage system are

standard items and are dealer fitted.

Rocket Boosters

A complete range of accessories is available to individualize your Rocket III.
Like all Triumph accessories, they’re designed and tested in parallel with
the bikes. Even then, they have to survive endurance testing on a track so
hellish it reproduces 120,000 miles of riding in just two weeks. They also
undergo thousands of miles at the hands of Triumph road testers in all
types of weather. So next time you’re checking out a set of b ags or a
screen, remember - they’re no more an afterthought than the chassis is.

ACCESSORIES

Cruise lines

Riding a cruiser is different to riding a sports bike which is different to
riding a classic bike.

You sit different. Your b ody position is different. Everything’s different –
including the way you want to look. At Triumph, we design our own
motorcycle clothing so that we can account for all these differences and get
the look and performance that fit the Rocket III’s laid back riding style. This
way you get clothing that’s as individual and stylish as your bike. Because
we realize that even Rocket III riders aren’t permanently glued to their
seats, we make some pretty cool casual stuff for wearing off the bike too.
