Every single person I've seen review the Rocket gets mesmerized by its stupendous torque and inevitably starts giggling like a kid. You can't make that stuff up. The bike is GOOD!
Yes, I’m also bothered by people who can’t give a detailed description of the physics and chemistry behind their excitement. Why they can’t just be dour and melancholy I’ll just never understand.
This is how the motorcycle bug bit me also! I wasn't. and one day I was. Got my license and did my MSF course. Now all left is to get a bike and practice!
This is SO mental! I literally sow this bike on the road today and heard it in all its glory, was mesmerized by how awesome it looked and sounded while wondering if I’ll ever find out who makes it.. thought for sure it must have been a custom made bike… 6 hrs later I see it here! 🤯🤯🤯

I bought a brand new BSA Rocket 3 back in 1969 in Ontario Canada, it cost me $1800.00. I believe it had 58 h.p. and I thought it was snappy. I started off with a 1959 Ariel Square 4 which was very smooth and I thought quick back in the day. I can only imagine what that new Rocket 3 is like.👍👍
@@realMaverickBuckley , unfortunately no. It was a basket case when I bought it for $450.00. My Dad talked me into buying the Ariel and he helped me immensely to get it back on the road. I can’t remember how long I kept it but I ended up selling it and made nothing on it. Today it would be worth big bucks. I’m not sure which year I bought it but it was approximately 1965.
An underappreciated work of art. With the 3, they've hit the mark. Just as it is, it seems like it can easily be a daily do-it-all. And always a treat to look at and listen to and hop on. We all need a bigger garage.
If i ever win lotto, im buying a shed, a bunk bed, building a bar, pool tables, darts, bike lifts, tools, and at least 20 bikes, that i absolutely MUST have.
Quite a few years ago at a bike show at the NEC Birmingham UK there was a cool looking bike with a huge stars and stripes tank on it, but the engine underneath was a V8, they didn't fire it up, if I could find the pic I'd link it but I bet it was loud. There was also a custom Bandit with full Hulk livery all over it in a cage with chains holding it lol.
I have a 650 CC motorcycle and it feels like I am riding clouds. I can only image how would it feel to ride this space ship. The name of this motorcycle suites. Rocket indeed it is.
I’ve got the 2020 R and have to agree the front end is harsh on the bumpy B roads of the UK. Aside from that they are an amazing machine, the engine and balance of them is wizardry !!
@Robert Hall And handling. And @10:53 add to that "Brakes that stop the planet!" Great description - even sitting at my keyboard I could feel that happening. This beast really is the whole package.
Fantastic review Dan. What a machine! I have loved the rockets since I first saw one. They are amazing. Huge engine and what performance. The price is high yes, but you get a lot of bike for the money. Looking forward to the next one 👍🏻
To keep the pegs from scraping the ground, I would shave off 1" from the pegs and that should allow the bike to take harder immediate corners or sweeps while mountain carving...
If I ever get bored of my 1290 Super Duke I think this is the next logical upgrade. More manufacturers need to start mixing things up instead of pumping out the same engines.
I think you should buy an MV Brutale 1000RR. That is the logical progression from a Super Duke. You can't wheelie a rocket AND retain fork integrity...
I mean I doubt I'll ever own one but holy shit I'd love to ride one for a weekend. What an absolute monster. Truly, troublingly, silly, in a way that most manufacturers just don't do anymore.
do you feel the engine vibration on the handles when you drive at around 70-80mph? I had to sell my Harley cause I couldn't withstand that vibration, would numb my arms quite quick, been riding since then a Kawasaki Concours 14, and this has no vibration at all :) How does the Rocket behave?
@@nymetsfan912 not the specific one in the video, but one of the limited edition 3R Blacks. Sooooo excited. I’m just a bit annoyed with myself because I originally put my deposit down on the day they were announced in March, but I changed dealerships a month later for a slightly better deal and better customer service which has put me to the back of the queue. It kills me to see people riding around on 3R Blacks and I don’t have mine yet..! 😆
I'm not a fan of the engine or exhaust sound, bigger doesn't mean better and it sounds "puny", but my _god_ this is the single best looking cruiser I have _ever_ seen.
Love my 3R, haven’t remapped but maps really well to more like 180rwhp, first 3 gears limited to 70% throttle, Rev limited in two top gears. Don’t need anymore. Tour with mates on cruisers, retros and hypers. Great cruiser/roadster 😎
Holy crap….165 HP at 6K RPM and redlines at 7K. Back in the 80’s I bought a 120HP Honda V65 (still have it….my wife piled a bunch of crap on it in the garage to discourage me from riding it….so I showed her, I bought a Harley) and thought that that was crazy horsepower. I’ve been on bikes all my life and my favorite was a ‘69 Triumph Bonneville…so I dig Triumphs.
I managed to get one of these in Ireland . Only 2 made it here into the north. I love it !! Nicely done Dan. The keyfob thing happens fairly regularly i find it's better in a top pocket. I even tried changing the battery. Always make sure you turn the fob off when you aren't riding it to save battery. I agree on the gt position. R is more comfy for me. I haven't really got used to the heat of the engine at slower speeds on warm days in the city. Very hot on the legs. I put a black screen on mine and the single seat pillion conversion. Will get the heated grips and tyre pressure sensor added at first service.
Sub straight away. This is by far my dream motor. Plus if I knew you'd be riding it around my area i'd sit and watch you go up and down the road. The wife would kill me if I bought one. Great review mate. Cheers
I have one, probably one of, if not the best bike I ever owned, and Ive owned about 35 motorcycles from Bimota Ducati to BMW and all the Japanese brands....
I had a T160V back in the day. Bought new, it cost me £1360 in 1977. One of the Saudi export models. Wish I'd hung on to it.... Watching this video has made me want another bike after 34 years away!
My first car was actually a truck my Dad bought for me. A Chevrolet S-10 with a 2.5L 4 cylinder engine. He bought it so we could tow a boat to Canada from Ohio. This bike has the same power to tow a boat to Canada!
For me the test is what distance you do and the purpose of your purchase. I have an upright riding BMW (R1250R), can ride all day. Had once a Suzuki GSX750, superb bike to ride, excellent handling, but had enough after 1 hour (arms ached). Had a previous BMW and truthfully rode from Hertfordshire to Skye pretty much non-stop save for fuel and eats. Bike did not miss a beat. The Rocket offers an upright position, but it looks like a missile one sits on. What is is like for maneuvering around a drive or in a garage.
Exactly, i tweeted to Ben Affleck to feature this bike in his Batman movie from years ago. And it seems my advice is partially taken, his BatBike from the spyshoot for coming new Batfleck movie is just enormous.
First thing I got installed was the sissy bar / backrest. Happy wife (or girlfriend), happy life! Then tail tidy, blinkers, DNA air filter, next will be the Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde exhaust once available. Then on to the dyno and get a custom tune for it. For the future, we might be looking at the TFC's titanium valves and the TTS Performance pistons. And another custom tune in that case. ;)
Those Rocket3s are so much fun. I try it once and could not take smile out of my face. Heavy like a horse, but what a ride! I did ride the BossHoss, but the Rocket3 is on another level. Much more fun much less scary.
Picking up my Rocket 3R Black tomorrow! Sooooo excited, I’m like a kid at Christmas!!! Absolutely superb video, but it’s doing nothing for my excitement levels… 🤩🥳🤩🥳🤩🥳
I’ve always said the engine size doesn’t matter for a first bike it’s the size of the bike that matters. You don’t want a big bulky bike to learn on but a big engine can be fully controlled with throttle and clutch control.
I have the GT version added a quickshifter on it its a 2020 model bought it use with only 1800 km on it so almost new its my 3rd season riding it and boy do i like it so fast so torquey im still smilling when i ride it and its get attention from everybody on the road get thumbs up all the time or people come to me to ask question about the bike alway asking is it a 6 cylinders (no its a 3 cylinders) and dont forget this year the 2024 Harley CVO are 124 cubic inches and the Rocket have 153 ci just saying , you got alot of bike for your money. Ride safe man and hello from Montreal, Quebec Canada.
The keyfob just needed a new battery. It was the same with mine when I picked up a new Rocket 3. You can turn the fob on and off and people forget and leave them on too long. Ride the R a decent distance (250 miles) on a day trip, and you'll want the GT.
Fab motorcycle but how about doing a polished alloy version .......brown leather seat and luggage packs, oh and a bigger main clock ( Vincent style ) . Love to see that as a factory option.
Oh My Lord!!!! I had a Speed Triple all black too and it was AMAZING!!! Until I crashed with a deer but this Rocket brings a lot of memories of the power and torque of the Triple which was a blast with a 955. Great review, if my wife would only let me get me one.
Carroll Shelby said, horsepower wins trophies but torque wins races. That is one mean machine. I think the only other bike that comes close in the looks department is the Yamaha V Max.
Every single person I've seen review the Rocket gets mesmerized by its stupendous torque and inevitably starts giggling like a kid. You can't make that stuff up. The bike is GOOD!
It's so good I can feel the torque through my computer monitor.
Junk
I don't know why anyone gets so excited about torque - it means nothing on its own.
Yes, I’m also bothered by people who can’t give a detailed description of the physics and chemistry behind their excitement. Why they can’t just be dour and melancholy I’ll just never understand.
@@davereiland9921 Trolls. That's how they are - dour, melancholoy and sad. Obviously they have never ridden a bike with 221Nm of torque.
Not a biker but this caught my eye, looks like an awesome machine.
You're a closet biker! Go on, treat yourself. You know you want to.
Same….nice machine and informative vid
This is how the motorcycle bug bit me also! I wasn't. and one day I was. Got my license and did my MSF course. Now all left is to get a bike and practice!
I'm not either - but the Rocket is my kinda machine. Always have one question though...How the heck does it stand up on that tiny kickstand??
I don't ride, but that bike is beautiful.
This is SO mental! I literally sow this bike on the road today and heard it in all its glory, was mesmerized by how awesome it looked and sounded while wondering if I’ll ever find out who makes it.. thought for sure it must have been a custom made bike… 6 hrs later I see it here! 🤯🤯🤯
Have absolutely zero intention of ever owning a Rocket but your vids are so well produced they are worth watching regardless of the bike!
Rockets are Brilliant !!
One. Gorgeous. Bike! Love that two-tone black tank with the flat and gloss. Bike looks like a work of art.
If i was in development and marketing at HD i'd be watching how Triumph evolve and improve.
Benchmark company.
HD will be gone soon
Not made in china I'm sure .
@@daviddemento367 sadly you are right
For us more educated... there's no need to explain why HD can't come close to this type of engineering
@@scottkeppler9151 theyre designed in England and made in Thailand.

Bet you wish you still had the Rocket, it would be worth a fortune now!
You had an Ariel ?? Do you still have it?
@@realMaverickBuckley , unfortunately no. It was a basket case when I bought it for $450.00. My Dad talked me into buying the Ariel and he helped me immensely to get it back on the road. I can’t remember how long I kept it but I ended up selling it and made nothing on it. Today it would be worth big bucks. I’m not sure which year I bought it but it was approximately 1965.
This is crazy. I legit just visited my local dealer yesterday and saw one too!!! That matte black looks gorgeous.
That’s one beautiful Porker! Reminds me of a mix between the Spitfire (plane) the way the engine side looks, & the Bat Mobile. Stunning!
Knowing Triumph, I bet that spitfire-esque look was purposeful.
Looks fantastic.
An underappreciated work of art. With the 3, they've hit the mark. Just as it is, it seems like it can easily be a daily do-it-all. And always a treat to look at and listen to and hop on. We all need a bigger garage.
A daily do it all? Sorry I’m sure it’s a nice bike but no one in their right mind drag this out of the garage to go down the chippy.
@@BikingChap I would absolutely use this as a daily do all bike
@@briansupermag3918 I had an mt-01 which sounded way more characterful than this but was way lighter but it was a bus for short local hops. No thanks

"lets put a car engine in a bike" - some Triumph engineer
Have you seen the dodge prototype motorcycle? It was a viper engine with wheels on.
Quite a few years ago at a bike show at the NEC Birmingham UK there was a cool looking bike with a huge stars and stripes tank on it, but the engine underneath was a V8, they didn't fire it up, if I could find the pic I'd link it but I bet it was loud.
There was also a custom Bandit with full Hulk livery all over it in a cage with chains holding it lol.
I think the Boss Hoss V8/V12 bikes are equally outrageous.
I saw a vid of a guy with a v12 from the AM Vantage in a bike
The Brazilian "Amazonas" was powered by a 1600cc Volkswagen Beetle motor and the German Munch Mammoth used a 1200cc NSU car motor.
I have a 650 CC motorcycle and it feels like I am riding clouds. I can only image how would it feel to ride this space ship. The name of this motorcycle suites. Rocket indeed it is.
What a bonkers machine. I can’t help but want one though!
I’ve got the 2020 R and have to agree the front end is harsh on the bumpy B roads of the UK. Aside from that they are an amazing machine, the engine and balance of them is wizardry !!
“It’s basically an engine with 2 tires stuck on it” describes all bikes 😂
Man! What a beautiful machine that is. Would love to ride it just for once. Thousand lucky souls.
I love the subtle trick of switching to the bodycam any time he gets on it so we don't know his actual speed! Its a really good idea
Purely coincidence..... 😁
@@Englishbikerdan "Its to show the wind rushing past me officer I swear" 😂
Not a biker, but that is SPECTACULAR!
Wonderful review as always, love your opening. Thanks, Dan.
Really is a beast ! Great review Mate !
Hi Dan. This bike has so much Power, Torque and speed it leaves the horizon behind. I'm in awe
of the bloody thing.
@Robert Hall And handling. And @10:53 add to that "Brakes that stop the planet!" Great description - even sitting at my keyboard I could feel that happening. This beast really is the whole package.
Please GOD let this appear in my garage someday before I am one with you!
🤣😂👌💯👍
you will get this bike buddy...
Fantastic review Dan. What a machine! I have loved the rockets since I first saw one. They are amazing. Huge engine and what performance. The price is high yes, but you get a lot of bike for the money. Looking forward to the next one 👍🏻
And imagine it mapped ‘properly’ to get the full range. Heavily restricted but still ridiculous!
To keep the pegs from scraping the ground, I would shave off 1" from the pegs and that should allow the bike to take harder immediate corners or sweeps while mountain carving...
not that into bike's due to my disabilitys but that bike has got to be one of the best looking bikes i have ever seen..
If I ever get bored of my 1290 Super Duke I think this is the next logical upgrade. More manufacturers need to start mixing things up instead of pumping out the same engines.
I think you should buy an MV Brutale 1000RR. That is the logical progression from a Super Duke. You can't wheelie a rocket AND retain fork integrity...
@@Jafmanz Why would I downgrade from 1300cc to 1000?
Triumphs and Benelis don’t make noise, instead they produce music which I can hear it all day without getting bored..
I'm with you!
But isn't benelli Chinese made nowadays?
Indeed it is and I've no clue how they both can be staged at similar platform 🤷🏻♂️
@@kachiiiingI don't think Triumphs are made in the UK now either. I can't remember where tho. Maybe Taiwan.
@@iManMe23 yea, I believe its Tw as well. But I've been hearing bad reviews on Benelli and it being from China
that laugh every time you grasped the potential of the massive torque. brilliant. great revieuw
Thanks mate! 😁
My fondest memories as a kid were the sound the Triumph made. A pity that's been lost.
Possibly one of the most beautiful bikes I've ever seen.
I mean I doubt I'll ever own one but holy shit I'd love to ride one for a weekend. What an absolute monster. Truly, troublingly, silly, in a way that most manufacturers just don't do anymore.
Stunning machine, the torque alone makes me want one.
Having had a similarly big bike the torque will be glorious but you will tire of the crazy weight.
The fact that your having so much fun on this bike sold it to me amazing looking and lots of extras and most importantly fun to ride
do you feel the engine vibration on the handles when you drive at around 70-80mph? I had to sell my Harley cause I couldn't withstand that vibration, would numb my arms quite quick, been riding since then a Kawasaki Concours 14, and this has no vibration at all :) How does the Rocket behave?
It's super smooth. 👌
I’m waiting (very impatiently) for mine to arrive. Seeing the 3R Black in ‘real life’ (not Triumph photos), it really does look glorious!!!
Are you really getting this specific one? 1 of the 1000 made?
@@nymetsfan912 not the specific one in the video, but one of the limited edition 3R Blacks. Sooooo excited.

So you have one of these in northern Ireland. I will have to look out for it. Beautiful bike. Unmistakeable looks
I like the idea of a motor bike, but ive not rode a motor bike since I was a teenie bopper
.....but this bike looks amazeballs

Stand up for yourself! It’s your life too!!
I have one, probably one of, if not the best bike I ever owned, and Ive owned about 35 motorcycles from Bimota Ducati to BMW and all the Japanese brands....
That's a heck of a collection!
I envy you.
I had a T160V back in the day. Bought new, it cost me £1360 in 1977. One of the Saudi export models. Wish I'd hung on to it....

You should do it. I was born in '77. 😂
My first car was actually a truck my Dad bought for me. A Chevrolet S-10 with a 2.5L 4 cylinder engine. He bought it so we could tow a boat to Canada from Ohio. This bike has the same power to tow a boat to Canada!
Lol what was it a canoe? Those trucks were so weak and had zero rear traction. Don't compare that pos to a wonderful machine like this.
the triumph now makes part of my top 10 wish list bikes
For me the test is what distance you do and the purpose of your purchase. I have an upright riding BMW (R1250R), can ride all day. Had once a Suzuki GSX750, superb bike to ride, excellent handling, but had enough after 1 hour (arms ached). Had a previous BMW and truthfully rode from Hertfordshire to Skye pretty much non-stop save for fuel and eats. Bike did not miss a beat.

Would it not be nice, before the "green" win the battle, to have a double engined version of this bike.
6 cylinder, 5 litres, 6 in 2 exhaust
Great review. Beast of a bike. Love taking my bike through the Pirbright bends too.
Jesus! Your bike has a bigger engine than my VW Tiguan! Awesome!
Hahah nice!
Exactly, i tweeted to Ben Affleck to feature this bike in his Batman movie from years ago. And it seems my advice is partially taken, his BatBike from the spyshoot for coming new Batfleck movie is just enormous.
Yeah he read your tweet and decided to use it. You happy now?
First thing I got installed was the sissy bar / backrest. Happy wife (or girlfriend), happy life! Then tail tidy, blinkers, DNA air filter, next will be the Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde exhaust once available. Then on to the dyno and get a custom tune for it. For the future, we might be looking at the TFC's titanium valves and the TTS Performance pistons. And another custom tune in that case. ;)
I said I'd never have another bike... but this is so so tempting!
There were times in the video when I could have sworn there was a child riding the bike. The giggling!!
I am a child! 🤣
Nice review Dan I absolutely love this bike it’s definitely one of my favourites.
There is a company here in the US that tunes them to 265hp at the rear wheel with insane torque.
Wonder if you could squeeze a turbo on it?
Those Rocket3s are so much fun. I try it once and could not take smile out of my face. Heavy like a horse, but what a ride! I did ride the BossHoss, but the Rocket3 is on another level. Much more fun much less scary.
Damn, that BossHoss is crazy!
This is crazy, this is the kind of bike to settle for
Picking up my Rocket 3R Black tomorrow! Sooooo excited, I’m like a kid at Christmas!!! Absolutely superb video, but it’s doing nothing for my excitement levels…
🤩🥳🤩🥳🤩🥳
Haha, enjoy that beast! 👍
How’s it going Adam?
I liked the video b4 it even started. The bike is a beast 👌
The most important question is "is it good as a first bike"?:D
Anybike is a good first bike , especially this one.
I'd recommend something a with a little more power tbh! 😉
@@Englishbikerdan What like a 5 series lol? Christ 2.5L is ridiculous- !!
@@justashortride6943 It's a running joke here.
I’ve always said the engine size doesn’t matter for a first bike it’s the size of the bike that matters. You don’t want a big bulky bike to learn on but a big engine can be fully controlled with throttle and clutch control.
Xdiavel owner here. That thing is beautiful.
I don’t like bikes, but bloody hell I like that!!!
THAT is one good looking bike. Seriously badass.
I'm a bike rider and mechanic for my boss in the "Kawasaki Kyalami Days."

Thanks Bryan!
Only making a 1000 of these and we're on 227k views oh dear..😃 bet you cant get one - what a beautiful bike !
This might just be the best looking bike ever in my opinion
Love engine hawk. Have 3 of their jackets. Great review. The limited black edition of the rocket is the best.
Will you be reviewing a Triumph Street Scrambler any time soon?! I love your videos and I would love to see you review that bike 😊
I can certainly ask Triumph if they'll lend me one!
Street Scrambler coming in late Sept. 👍
I have the GT version added a quickshifter on it its a 2020 model bought it use with only 1800 km on it so almost new its my 3rd season riding it and boy do i like it so fast so torquey im still smilling when i ride it and its get attention from everybody on the road get thumbs up all the time or people come to me to ask question about the bike alway asking is it a 6 cylinders (no its a 3 cylinders) and dont forget this year the 2024 Harley CVO are 124 cubic inches and the Rocket have 153 ci just saying , you got alot of bike for your money. Ride safe man and hello from Montreal, Quebec Canada.
I thought I heard the roar of the classic Trident there. Lovely!
What an outstanding machine, and with a review it deserves. Nicely done.
The keyfob just needed a new battery. It was the same with mine when I picked up a new Rocket 3. You can turn the fob on and off and people forget and leave them on too long. Ride the R a decent distance (250 miles) on a day trip, and you'll want the GT.
I hope to try the GT in the future!
@@Englishbikerdan It's nicer to ride for most people I think!
I dream of buying my first bike and it being a triumph.
The scrambler looks awesome, and it's basically my goal
I'll be testing the Street Scrambler soon 👍
@@Englishbikerdan I will be waiting for the video! Really liked this one
Hi Dan, she's a thing of beauty..great review!
lol r u blind?
Beautiful thing.
The only devices I don't like is the digital display and rear two-piece mudguard.
Man your videos just keep getting better and better
Fab motorcycle but how about doing a polished alloy version .......brown leather seat and luggage packs, oh and a bigger main clock ( Vincent style ) . Love to see that as a factory option.
That's got to be one of most beautiful motorcycle I've ever seen!❤👌
So much better in person as well 😛
It's like a concept bike that actually made it to production
Oh My Lord!!!! I had a Speed Triple all black too and it was AMAZING!!! Until I crashed with a deer but this Rocket brings a lot of memories of the power and torque of the Triple which was a blast with a 955. Great review, if my wife would only let me get me one.
I have a wife and 3 kids. I told her, I’m getting another motorcycle. Triumph currently in the garage,. You only have one life my man.
ah man, you gonna beat every red traffic light with that monster, lovely bike, great video.
Stunning bike. Test rode the R at the weekend. Fell in love. Great all rounder and it handles
Far more satisfying rolling out onto nationals in 4th as it’s the only unrestricted gear, full throttle 😎 3R with shift assist is awesome
It sure was fun! 🙂
Amazing, but I wouldn't want to drive that any distance without a proper fairing for protection.
So if I sold both bikes, cashed in my premium bonds……………..😎 Great review!
I'm not a rider myself but this thing is beautiful
A stunning machine mate. I had a 1970 Bonni 650 and I do miss that bike even today. Cheers.
Check out the Royal Enfield 'Interceptor'.
One of the only cruisers I would like to ride . But in red :)
Looks like that bike that Honda came out with years ago. (Beast) Smooth ride!!!
That would be the Rune, which is far more motorcycle than triumph could ever muster.
This is my "if I win the lottery bike." I can only imagine the insurance cost of this bike.
I'm getting a 2006 insured soon and it was significantly less than even a gsxr600, guess cause it's TECHNICALLY a cruiser!
My God, what a monster Triumph made..
Carroll Shelby said, horsepower wins trophies but torque wins races. That is one mean machine. I think the only other bike that comes close in the looks department is the Yamaha V Max.
Not a biker, but this looks like a refined beast. The name says it all. Rocket.! I want one!
What a beauty! A dream bike to say the least.
Only just started watching this video. Idk if he covers it but does the rear wheel have freaking lugs!!?? Holy crap
Living in the frozen north I’m not convinced it’s practical but I bet it’s fun and it looks great, I’d have the GT with a screen😀
