Thanks to Triumph Central London for letting me out on their bike. You can enquire about demoing it with them here:
www.lind.co.uk/triumph/london
They also have their Rocket 3 launch day on the 18th where you can book demos on the day, but if you want to be sure to get a spin on one I'd recommend getting in touch with them in advance.

As someone who, years ago, spent 3 years, (1980's), as a London Despatch Rider it is really refreshing to watch someone who knows how to ride/filter London traffic and gets the job done. On the rare occassions I ride in London these days I even see 125cc scooters sitting in traffic queues.

I’ve never bothered to leave comments on a KZfaq review but had to write to say thanks for such a comprehensive review. Easy to listen too, really enjoyable and without doubt the most engaging and “personal” review on the internet! (I’ve just sent an email to my dealer asking for a p/x price for my Bobber Black and a test drive). Thank you. 20 minutes well spent!

Just rode one myself, NOT hype !!! No it's not perfect but damn it's close. Not the smoothest suspension ever, ie; not as good as an Indian but better than my Road King. So much torque coming from such a smooth engine, so little drama when you overtake and plenty of braking power when you need it. With such a big tyre front and back, the biggest surprise was its agility, more than just good. Fit and finish is top notch and it is perhaps the lack of need for anything extra that makes it good value too, apart from bags it has everything you need and enough power that only a select few will find a need to fiddle with the engine. Your review encouraged me to go ride one, it is light years ahead of the old model and has made it to the top of my list. I'm a die hard V twin fan and had the new Indian Darkhorse Springfield lined up as my next purchase, familiar but better, much better than my Harley but this, this is just awesome.

A great review, there are certain bikes and cars that I have owned in the past that gives you that certain feeling when you climb on or get in - I can’t describe it really other than it feeling like an event - the bike I personally I’m on about is a Honda CBX which had a six into one exhaust and sounded epic and the other being a 6.2 V8 C 63 Mercedes - again it sounded epic and they both felt like an event - you can’t beat it !! I haven’t had a motorcycle for approximately 15 years - the last being a Suzuki 1200 bandit - yet after seeing the new triumph rocket I am so tempted 🧐🧐. We all know the days of these monsters are limited 😢 but it would be great to say I have had one rather than I wish I had !! Stay safe👍

Picked up my new Rocket GT last week and put 400 miles on it. The only fly in the ointment is that the list of devices that are compatible with the $900 bluetooth module is extremely limited. The only two Android phones are the S8 and S9, both of which have been discontinued by Samsung. My headset, the Sena SRL Neotec 11, is also not compatible. The dealer, Mosites in North Versailles, PA has refunded me both the price of the bluetooth component and the labor involved in installing it. Excellent Customer Service at Mosites. Triumph After Sales in Atlanta was very supportive and coordinated with the dealer. In addition, they are going to escalate the problem with Triumph UK. Be careful if you need the bluetooth! Otherwise, its the best bike that I have ever ridden!

@@lorcro2000 Wait a while. The original Rocket came on the market relatively basic. Then the Touring came a few years later. This bike is long enough for everything you mention above. There will definately be aftermarket stuff flooding the market soon. The bike could wear a screen and still look cool. There are already 20 liter side bins for it, albeit made of pliable material and not rigid. My dealer has the TFC Rocket on show, number 380. Bought by a guy in Frankfurt. Wonderfully done and a real eye-catcher. They are offering finance on the bike for 3,5% for up to 96 months. Even without the interest, for the GT, it's still over 200 bucks per month. Not everyone who will bye this bike will like it. It's big and heavy, and if you're not experienced, fu*#ing scary. My Rocket Touring has over 380 kilos, wet weight. From 2008 and no safety systems like ABS etc. Will be test riding the GT when it comes to the dealer. We'll see 🤘Ride safe

They've shaved off lots of weight, and the old generation Rocket already feels lighter than it has any right to. It's beautifully balanced, get any Rocket up above walking speed and it's like riding any other bike, cornering is easy and stable, they just handle very well - especially for the size. I'm not surprised this is probably even better, they did peel off quite a bit of weight - surprising amounts of it really - and they already had the balance thing down pat. The big lump of an engine is low in the frame so the center of gravity is low, so it's only when you drop it and it starts to lean that you really notice that there's a fair bit of mass involved.

Big old bus, even has the Tfl badge styled petrol cap. Great commuter. Only the price of a few season tickets.

Great knowledgable review mate , well in. Tell me, how do you perfectly sync up both cameras audio / footage to place in right spot on final video ?

Clap your hands at the beginning of recording and you can line up the audio tracks in your editing software before you start chopping it all up :)
