TWO MAGNIFICENT CHOICES
The new Rocket 3 line-up introduces two amazing all-new model choices. The
Rocket 3 R delivers instantaneous world-leading torque, incredible control,
comfort and capability, while the Rocket 3 GT is built to go even further, in
more comfort, with even more effortless touring capability.
THE BIGGEST PRODUCTION MOTORCYCLE ENGINE IN THE WORLD
Both
new Rocket 3 models are equipped with the all-new 2,500cc triple engine, which offers
even higher capacity and performance than its predecessor - for amazing
acceleration and
all-day any-gear effortless riding, two-up or on your own.
The new
Rocket 3 engine brings an amazing step up in peak power with 167 PS @ 6,000
rpm, which is 11% up on its predecessor. With more power from a low 3,500rpm,
and all the way up to a higher red line of 7,000rpm, the new Rocket 3 delivers
a staggering level of performance.
The
Rocket 3 engine also has the highest torque figure of any production
motorcycle, with
221 Nm – an astounding 71% more than its closest competition. With an incredibly
flat and rich torque curve, reaching a peak at 4,000rpm, it holds maximum
torque all the way through the mid-range, delivering effortless acceleration
and response in any gear.
This is
the world’s biggest production motorcycle engine featuring several mass
optimised performance enhancements; including a new crankcase assembly, new
lubrication system comprising dry sump and integral oil tank and new balancer
shafts - together giving an 18kg engine weight saving over the previous
generation.
The distinctive hydroformed three-header exhaust run is an iconic design detail
on both the Rocket 3 R and Rocket 3 GT. This has been innovatively engineered
for the perfect exhaust routing, flowing from the header into the combined cat
box and onto the triple exit silencer, delivering a distinctive and unique deep
growling triple Rocket soundtrack.
For
exceptional levels of rider comfort and a commanding level of control over the
Rocket 3’s powerful performance, a new ’torque assist’ hydraulic clutch
provides the rider with a light clutch action by reducing lever effort .
Furthermore, the Rocket 3’s all-new high-performance six-speed helical-cut
gearbox is precision-engineered to be smoother, stronger and lighter than a
standard gearbox, and is designed specifically to allow for the increased
torque capacity of this new generation.
Just like
all the latest range of Triumphs, the Rocket 3 engine delivers modern capability
with ride-by-wire throttle, as well as a sensitively incorporated liquid
cooling system for enhanced performance and an even more efficient ride.
Both Rocket
3 models feature a high first major service interval of 10,000 miles/16,000 km.
PURE MUSCULAR PRESENCE AND MAGNIFICENT STYLE
With beautifully distinctive details, such as the new signature twin LED
headlight, including Triumph maker’s mark triangle branding and the sculpted
3-header exhaust run, the new
Rocket 3 line-up has an incredibly imposing poise and stance.
In addition, the all-new lightweight multi-spoke cast
aluminium wheels enhance the muscular contemporary style, with the Rocket 3 R’s
wheels featuring a beautiful blacked-out finish, while the Rocket 3 GT model goes
one step further with exposed machining on rim and spokes. Both models are also
fitted with Avon Cobra Chrome tyres, developed especially for the new Rocket 3,
with an imposing 240mm rear wheel width. The new tyres have exquisite
detailing, and both feature a new tread pattern developed for great grip and high
mileage durability.
Contributing to the Rocket 3’s clean, uncluttered styling
are the beautifully engineered single-sided swingarm, with offset monoshock
suspension and high-value finishing on the bevel box, The stylish internally
wired handlebars further reinforce the bike’s muscular feel and commanding
riding position. The Rocket 3 R model features roadster-style handlebars, while
the Rocket 3 GT model has touring-oriented handlebars enhancing its touring comfort
and capability.
Both new Rocket 3 models come with a sculpted rider and
pillion saddle, featuring cast aluminium finishers under the seat and creating
a unique flowing line through the bike. The set-up for each Rocket 3 has been
designed to be easily changed from twin to single seat set-up with optional addition
of an accessory infill pad available to further enhance the single seat look.
The Rocket 3 R features a roadster rider and pillion saddle, with a low 773mm
seat height, while the Rocket 3 GT features a touring rider and pillion saddle
set-up with an even more accessible 750mm seat height. The Rocket 3 GT additionally
benefits from a brushed aluminium pillion backrest.
For maximum comfort for every rider, each Rocket 3 model
offers a range of rider-adjustable ergonomics. The mid-foot controls of the
Rocket 3 R have two vertical position settings to choose from (0mm / -15mm),
while the Rocket 3 GT offers feet-forward foot controls with three horizontal
position choices (-25mm / 0mm / +25mm), and also a height adjustable pillion
backrest.
The new Rocket 3 range also benefits from Triumph’s class-defining
level of finish and detailing, contributing to its magnificent style. These
beautiful features include a muscular sculpted fuel tank with Triumph’s
signature design DNA, brushed stainless steel tank strap and beautiful aluminium
Monza-style cap, brushed aluminium air-box cover, brushed aluminium Monza-style
coolant and oil caps, machined fins on the crankcases, head and cam cover,
brushed exhaust heat shields and end caps, and elegant hidden folding pillion
footrests with unique foldaway design.

PHENOMENAL
HANDLING AND COMMANDING RIDE
The all-new Rocket 3 R and GT include the highest-ever
specification of premium brakes and suspension components, plus
state-of-the-art ride-enhancing technology, all designed to deliver phenomenal
handling, superior comfort and all-day touring capability.
Highest ever specification of chassis, suspension and brakes
With a weight saving of more than 40kg, the new Rocket 3
R and GT are both more than 13% lighter than the previous generation.
The Rocket 3 line-up features an all-new high-specification mass-optimised
aluminium frame with an innovative design that contributes to the new Rocket
3’s overall weight saving and provides an incredible torque-to-weight ratio,
over 25% higher than the closest competition.
Furthermore, the new Rocket 3 motorcycles feature a fully
adjustable Showa monoshock rear suspension unit with piggyback reservoir
(adjustable rebound, compression and preload), and 47mm adjustable Showa front
forks (with rebound and compression adjustability) to deliver superior riding
comfort and exceptional touring capability and handling.
Topping off the high-specification engineering innovation
are the highest specification Brembo Stylema® calipers which are fitted to both
new Rocket 3 models. In addition, this new design allows increased airflow
around the brake pads which helps the calipers cool quicker for even better
performance.
Ride Enhancing Technology
Taking the capability to the highest-ever level, the Rocket
3s feature a class-leading
standard of rider-focused technology, including:
-
2nd
generation TFT instruments
Both models feature Triumph’s latest generation full-colour TFT instruments, which
is more sophisticated, more personalisable and offers much more functionality
than the instruments on the previous generation. The TFT unit is angle-adjustable
for optimum visibility and has a stylish design and two information layout
themes that can be personalised, allowing the rider to update the start-up
screen message with their name.
The Optimised Cornering ABS is fitted as standard on both Rocket 3 R and GT.
This maintains the optimum braking performance, whatever the lean angle.
Both Rocket 3 models also feature Optimised Cornering Traction Control as
standard. This maintains the optimum level of traction control for the lean
angle of the bike.
An advanced Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) developed in partnership with
Continental, supports the optimum function of the Optimised Cornering ABS and
Traction Control. This takes constant measurements of roll, pitch, yaw, lean
angle and acceleration rates, responding with appropriate active safety
features.
Both
models feature Road, Rain, Sport and Rider-configurable riding modes which adjust
the throttle response and traction control settings to suit rider preference
and riding conditions. The riding modes are easily changed on the move via the
intuitive
illuminated switch cubes.
Both Rocket 3 models come with all-LED lighting, including a new twin LED
headlight unit, tail light, indicators (*in applicable markets) and number
plate light. The headlights also incorporate LED Daytime Running Lights (*in applicable
markets) which provide excellent visibility and a distinctive light profile.
Both
models features hill hold control as standard. This feature prevents the bike
rolling backwards for enhanced rider confidence and maximum control, even with
a pillion and when fully loaded. The system applies the rear brake until
sensing that the rider is starting to move off, and is activated using the
front brake lever. The feature is switchable via the bike set-up menu.
Electronic
cruise control is fitted as standard to both Rocket 3 models. This feature reduces
rider fatigue over long journeys and can be easily accessed while riding
for maximum convenience and safety.
-
Keyless
ignition and steering Lock
Triumph’s keyless ignition system is fitted as standard on both models. The
system recognises the proximity of the keyless fob and then enables ignition
via the switch cube mounted start button. There is also the ability to disable
the key’s wireless transmission function at the touch of a button for even
greater security.
-
Heated
grips
Heated grips are also fitted as standard to the Rocket 3 GT, and are available
as an accessory on the Rocket 3 R. These are neatly integrated with a button on
the left hand grip providing greater rider comfort, with two modes.
Both new Rocket 3s feature a 5V USB power socket under the seat, for charging personal equipment.
