A buddy of mine rides the rocket. It is an awesome bike. Lots of power and it handles really nice. Nice bike in my book!

I like the old Triumphs, BSA's, Nortons, Don't know much about the new Triumphs though.

I know that one problem - at least around here, is finding a place that will service a Triumph.

A guy I know traded his in because it was just too much of a problem to get the routine stuff done. I suppose if your area has a dealer, this would not be a problem . . . unless the dealer turned out to be a dud.


Good luck on your decision.


I agree, it's a sweet bike.

ORIGINAL: Anvil

I'm wondering what oppinion the H-D community has of Triumph, particularly the Rocket III.

I'm very interested in the forums oppinions.
What's not to love....

I used to own a 2002 Bonneville America loved the bike,put over 12k miles on it with no problems.I ended up getting Softail Deluxe,I justed needed a bike with more room and better 2 up riding,all I can say is Triumph makes a great bike thats why I bought a 98 Thunderbird Sport to go along side my HD....Nothing wrong with having 2 bikes

I think Triumphs are cool! I especially like the design of the engine.

They also look great chopped up! [sm=smiley20.gif]

Triumphs are cool. I lke the originals better. You know, the bonneville, but I haven't followed what they have done recently. I knew a guy from Hinckley. He was a cool dude...

Like Triumphs.

Sold my '72 Bonnie to get the Low Rider last March.

Considered a Bonneville America, but went with the Low Rider.
