This bike looks sick, especially from that side camera position as you see the suspension working

[AppleGonCrumble]

The engine being a part of the frame looks sooo good.

I use mine as my daily commuter - it entices me to give it beans at every set of lights. I found the mid controls were more engaging for me - more aggressive and works for me.
The big engine performs effortlessly all day long. The GT screen takes care of the wind and a good helmet helps. Does not really matter what gear you are in at any given time - just twist the throttle. Guys, puts a smile on my face every day... Audio - I swapped out for the Patriot exhaust and now the sound matches the look. When cruising it sounds like a spitfire in full dive under load and a tiger snarl at a set of lights.

OC: Chase just bought the MT10 and now falling for cruisers. You just know Triumph dropping this off at the shop made Beau's day.

As a traditional Harley guy, when I first seen these I was like “yuck 🤢”, but if I’m being honest, now I’m kinda like “hey baby you wanna turn a bunch of fuel into noise and speed? 😍”

I love the Rocket 3, I have a GT myself. The forward foot controls to me were more comfortable than the R's mid controls. The handling is amazing though, feels great shredding back roads as quick as all my sport bike friends

Look better than the harley sportster, put clips on, it will turn into the bat motorcycle

[RTZ-holf]

you can honestly, feel the power through the camera.. that is amazing. what a machine and great job C on 2 Wheels

As an Xdiavel S owner, I can say that this thing is beautiful.

I currently own 3 bikes. 2012 M109R, 2017 Concours 14 and a 2017 Vmax but I really want this bike. Just figuring out how to explain to my wife why I need this bike. Believe me, I will find a way!

You need to ride the Rocket with the unrestricted tune for a true taste of what this engine can do. From the factory, the ecu will only allow approximately 60% throttle body opening when you apply 100% manual throttle! The unrestricted tune allows 100% body opening when full throttle is applied. It increases power from 165 to around 200 HP and torque increases from 163 to 177. Scary quick, and doable with an android device, OBD link, and $15 to the guys at Tuneecu.

This bike does it enough for me that I’ve bought one. What a terrific bike!!! It’s not cheap, but you get what you pay for. And in this case, that’s a hell of a lot of motorcycle.

Hi from NZ. I got rocket gt. I just can't get enough of it. Mid pegs, quick shifter all the fruit. Best fun ever. Great video thanks.

I was fortunate enough to get a press loan of the same bike, the r black, for 2 weeks. Went into it wondering about it and came out in love. It’s such a ridiculous motorcycle that nobody asked for and I’m glad they made.

[Buddha-cifz]

I love this class of motorcycle! I own an M109R and Diavel. I hope to add the Rocket 3 to the garage someday!

[lukepowell]

I flew from Western Australia to Tasmania to buy a gsx1400 and rode it home to Perth and I was converted just like you are now, the GSX1400 has more bottom end torque than an R1 and its a beast to ride I'll even give it hell on unsealed roads. I want to ride a rocket 3 so bad, I'd love to see a track day on this bike.

Seeing you drive is pretty cool, as it´s not as crazy like some other drivers in YouTube are, but you still look cautious and do it "reasonably"

[ShuffleMasta]

Ninja 400 owner here / new rider (as of October). Not a cruiser fan by any means, but this and the Sportster S are the two that do it for me. This bike looks DAMN MENACING! 😍

My Brother Tom just bought one of these in Mississippi from a friend. He should be bringing it home to his house in Iowa this summer. Can’t Wait to see it.

I love the bike! Unless you live in UK it's pretty hard to get a Rocket 3R Black. I got mine eventually, more expensive than it should have been, but in the end, totally worth it. This bike is PERFECT if you come from cruisers and want to touch the naked world. Me personally, I can't take a super naked, I hate the sound, I hate the high revs, but the Rocket... oh boy... it gives you everything you need at low revs. 2.7 secs to 100 km/h is something amazing. The build quality is awesome, the clutch, the gear changer- they are perfect. I drove a couple of days ago a Speed Triple 1200 RS. Even if the motorcycle is an icon itself, the Rocket 3R is WAY above it quality wise.
