Your right, there are limits in place in the factory programing on the ECU of the Triumph Rocket 3. I picked up a 2021 Rocket 3GT last month, and if you do your research via the forums, you'll stumble across new ECU maps and methods to which you'll be able to reprogram the bike. The new ECU maps will remote the power limiters on the first three gears, and likely the top end, although I don't have a need to do over 130MPH on any of my rides, for purposes of testing, this bike can absolutely go much fast than 130. Needless to say, this bike is not short on power, anywhere.

I test rode the lastest gen Rocket three in Thailand. Top end is limited but still more than any sensible rider would need. The lowering of the centre of gravity has improved the agility and handling no end. My ride took me into the twisting mountain roads of Northern Thailand, I was impressed. The thing that won me was the effortless highway cruising , the smoothness and enough torque to pull a house down.

I'm very jealous of the track width, length and how smooth it appears. I do land speed racing at the Bonneville Salt Flats which is well known for the many records set there. However, salt has less grip and generally not as smooth as even rough pavement. The surface changes from being like wet sand to being hard enough to leave rubber tire marks down. Two of the biggest drawbacks are the density of altitude (5000 to 7200 feet) and the lack of tire adhesion. I'll be running a modified first gen Rocket 3 in August with almost no stream lining, I just hope I can hang on.

You can get rid of both the speed limiter, as well as the ride by wire restrictions. Even in Sport mode, when you give it 100% throttle, the ECU never delivers more than 64%... That bike is seriously held back, but it's all done in software, so you can unlock all of that in less than 20 minutes with TuneECU and an Android phone. Lots of free HP just sitting there waiting to be unlocked.

The rocket 3r can do speeds much higher than this. It's got the juice. I also have an Indian FTR 1200 which is electronically limited to 200 ONLY. Another big disappointment was the ninja h2, the speedo and the actual vbox gps both didn't go above 299 and the bike had an incredible about of punch still left. The only surprise was the 2021 hayabusa , the speedo was of course only limited to 299 ( analogue ) but the bloc kept climbing until it reached 302 kmph true speeds. I am not a cruiser guy but the Rocket3r is an amazing bike to ride. I have burnt the clutch plates of bikes like the Indian roadmaster but the rocket 3r can take an amazing amount of hard riding ( I took it to a race track and did 10000 kms around india in one go). As far as the context of this video goes - being fast and top speeds, it was more of a landmark moment taking it around the world's fourth longest high speed test track rather than anything else with the rest of the motorcycles. And of course Hinckley ought to destruct this amazing machine. 💪🏼👏

Aerodynamics and upper-body strength are the key Factors in sustainable cruising speed. My old XS850 could get to 130mph (210kph) with me, (1.83M, 90kg) crouched as low as humanly possible. Hanging on to a bare bike at 146 mph (236kph) is for the strong and determined. My later FJ1200 (faired) would do 130mph all day long in comfort, with very little effort; a 60kg weed could do that easily. I'd love an R3R, but I'm now old and weedy, so missed my chance. I can still listen to that glorious 'basso-profundo' of a departing one.

The never seen publicly prototype was so scary, that it was reputed that Bloor reckoned that there could be intervention from government. So, it was discarded……………..I’m of the opinion th😮at it wasnt. It became a ‘cruiser’. Therefore, it became nearly respectable. Now, with the “ Storm” edition, it’s morphing into its true colours. Triumph are being shrewd, with top speed limitation. If the public want something that will take off, with the addition of small wings, they’ve got it.

Best overall is Diavel. I have tracked mine many times, higher top end and such a sleeker looking motorcycle.

I remember triumphs return and people were saying things like..they won't be as good as the original machines. They can't make good bikes there. Exactly what is being said about China now.

I had a '92 750 Trident that did 125 with my lardy ass on it! So I'm sure this beast will go a lot faster, given the opportunity!

All that build up for a feeble 236kph?! I've done 20 better just on a Sunday afternoon ride around Auckland City mate. And I've never heard of kmph FFS. Is there a electronic speed limiter that needs disabling on this beautiful piece of engineering?

Boss Hoss is the largest most powerful production motorcycle and easily eclipses the rocket in acceleration and top speed.

Don't comment until you actually ride one I have a Hayabusa 200 easily then I rode his bike not as fast anywhere is my bike but it feels like you've been rear-ended by a dump truck I like this feel way better than a Hayabusa could ever be in fact this is my next bike
@richardcerritelli96572 жыл бұрын
Like I commented before numbers don't always tell how the bike is right this bike to feel how it really is you'll be hooked man it feels like a dump truck hit you from behind like a roller coaster and that's coming from one of the fastest bikes on the planet a Hayabusa owner this is my next bike

Geeez I'm....... Underwhelmed ! I've got a Honda VFR750 from 1988... It will top out at 230 km/h. I took it to 180 km/h about 4 months ago, and it had still way more in it... I didn't tho'. It was windy as hell

한국에서 내가 가속한 속도는 275km 이었다 지금도 이바이크를 대체할 만한 토크감과 속도를 가진 바이크는 아직 없다 그래서 기종 추가는 있지만 아직 이바이크를 팔지 못하고 있다 물론 속도감은 가와사키 h2에 ecu맵을 건든 260마력 은 아직 넘지 못하고 있다 4단에서 300km을 넘지만 일반인의 영역에서 200km가 넘어 가면 초단위로 죽음으리 넘나드는 영역이라 아직 까지 나는 로켓3r을 만족하며 타고 있다.
