ROCKET 3 SHOWCASE
ROCKET 3 IN NUMBERS
Class-defining triple performance from the largest production motorcycle engine in the world.
The highest torque of any production motorbike delivered across the entire rev range in one smooth and seamless flow.

ROCKET 3 KEY FEATURES
ALL-NEW UNIQUE ALUMINIUM FRAME
The high specification aluminium engineered frame construction, with forward-facing air intake and premium cast and forged components, is more than 15% lighter than the previous production Rocket.
HIGH SPECIFICATION ADJUSTABLE SHOWA SUSPENSION
Contributing to the Rocket 3 R and GT’s superior riding comfort and exceptional handling characteristics are fully adjustable Showa monoshock RSU with piggyback reservoir, and 47mm USD Showa cartridge front forks which are adjustable for compression and rebound.
CUTTING EDGE BREMBO STYLEMA® BRAKES
Lightweight, compact, beautifully sculpted Brembo Stylema calipers are designed to deliver a more immediate braking response. The increased airflow around the brake pads help the calipers cool quicker for a more consistent performance.
RIDE-ENHANCING TECHNOLOGY
The Rocket 3 line-up is packed with ride-enhancing technology including sophisticated personalisable full-colour TFT instruments, optimised cornering ABS & traction control, four riding modes, all-LED lighting, hill hold control, cruise control, keyless ignition and optional Triumph Shift Assist.
ALL LED LIGHTING
For excellent visibility, both Rocket 3 models feature a distinctive full-LED twin headlight (including Daytime Running Lights where market legislation permits), a beautiful LED tail-light, LED indicators and LED number plate light for maximum durability and power efficiency.
HIGH SPECIFICATION DEDICATED TYRES
Developed especially for this bike, imposing Avon Cobra Chrome tyres – the rear tyre is 240mm wide – add to the Rocket 3’s muscular presence with stunning detailing and a new tread pattern for exceptional grip and incredible longevity.
COMFORTABLE TAILORED PILLION & RIDER SEATS
Both of the Rocket 3’s sculpted rider and pillion saddle set-ups maintain the clean and flowing line across the bike, and deliver maximum comfort and an accessible low seat height. Each model features a dedicated set-up, with the Rocket 3 GT benefiting from the addition of a brushed aluminium pillion backrest.
DISTINCTIVE SINGLE-SIDED SWINGARM
The beautifully engineered cast aluminium single-sided swingarm, with offset monoshock suspension and aluminium rear number plate hanger, add to the clean uncluttered styling of the compact minimal rear end.
ADJUSTABLE ERGONOMICS
Delivering maximum comfort for every rider, the Rocket 3 comes with unique adjustability. The Rocket 3 R’s mid foot controls offer two vertical position settings and the Rocket 3 GT forward foot controls offer three horizontal position settings and adjustable pillion backrest.
BEAUTIFULLY HYDROFORMED EXHAUST HEADERS
The new Rocket 3’s distinctive three-header exhaust run has been innovatively engineered for the perfect exhaust routing, which flows from the header, into the combined cat box, and on to the triple-exit silencer, contributing to the signature deep growling triple soundtrack.
ACCESSORY FIT TRIUMPH TFT CONNECTIVITY SYSTEM
Enjoy class-leading connectivity while you’re riding the new Rocket 3 with the world’s first integrated GoPro control system; ‘turn-by-turn’ navigation with easy to follow Google icons and Bluetooth® phone & music operation.
