Triumph Rocket 3 R first RIDE reaction / review

[@AdaMoto83]

We need a yes bro scale! 1 yes bro is good 3 yes bro’s means epic 😂😂. The yeeeeaaaah buddy was awesome!!!!! And the footage of the lakes looks insane. Can’t wait to see it.

[@MakaJerycho]

Yeaaaahhhhh buddy 🤣🤣🤣💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

[@dadandmad]

Very cool dude! Always wanted to have a go on the old Rocket, I bet the latest are just incredible. Good review so far mate.

[@MakaJerycho]

It defies gravity dude 🤣🤣

[@Sean-cx6up]

The MPG, top one is total since a reset , 2nd one is what you are getting at that moment in time. Im getting 41.5mpg since January, lots of short rides, commuting. 3250miles. And its a hell of a machine

[@MakaJerycho]

Oops I was in the 30s a lot of the time with the bottom read out 🤭🤭🤭 Must of been throttling it a bit too much! What an absolute weapon

[@Sean-cx6up]

@@MakaJerycho it's a beast. Half the time, there's no need to be lower than 4th gear, just pulls away.... 😂 I love my R3GT, on it everyday, no matter what the weather

[@RogerSMiller1]

Jack the preload up on the rear - screw it all the way up then back it off 10 clicks (click is half a turn) - it transforms the ride...

[@MakaJerycho]

I thought it was ok 🤭🤭 Just didn’t like the potholes 🤣🤣🤣

Thanks for a great video Freddie, The V4 rally is perhaps the best adventure motorcycle available today. I have been riding the 2019 Multistrada 1260 Enduro for two years. It is an amazing motorcycle in terms of technology, road and off-road capabilities. But one of its problems is the emission of heat thrown to my left thigh while riding. It's hard for me to get used to it since I live in a hot country. Did you feel a heat while riding the V4 rally that made you feel uncomfortable?

[@MakaJerycho]

Still confuses me 🤣

[@bantau88]

jealous, need one

[@MakaJerycho]

They’re AMAZING

[@jimanders9971]

If you put in a lot of hours on the bike a proper windshield is much nicer. Also get the quick shifter. Fyi, after 80,000 miles my GT is averaging 37 mpg. And I am not a gentle rider. No other cruiser has ever passed me in the twisties.

[@MakaJerycho]

I’d say 37mpg is about what I was getting 👍🏻

[@AGRIV8TD1963]

I Love the 'Man' bun😂💃 I can fix that! 🤣

[@MakaJerycho]

Awww love this Thank you

[@andrewjohnson6297]

It’s funny the rocket looks a big old girl which is deceptive, Triumphs as a general rule are small in proportions, and anything seems light and nimble to us Harley riders . Have to say the rocket is a tempting purchase just be nice to hear one with a good set pipes on .

[@MakaJerycho]

It sounds tasty in standard tbh But I’d also like to hear one with a set of super guns on the back 🤣🤣🤣

[@markettradinggenius]

For me it's a choice between this(waiting for 2024 Rocket 3R Storm), KTM Superduke R Evo or the BMW M1000XR....

[@MakaJerycho]

Some machines in that list!!!! 😎👌🏻

[@markettradinggenius]

@@MakaJerycho Maka, ultimately it will boil down to which one of these has the highest 'reliability' rate....not sure which one of these has the highest reliability...

[@MakaJerycho]

@@markettradinggenius personally I’d go with what you plan to use it for? If you do long runs, weekend riding holidays etc I’d go for the one with the largest fuel tank! Nothing worse than having to keep stoping to fuel and suffering with range anxiety. If you’re more a I’m out for a quick blip, afternoon ride Then go for the one that tickles your sweet spot the most. For me I go by tank range :)

[@markettradinggenius]

@@MakaJerycho I agree. Triumph Rocket 3R Storm it is then 😁

[@markbarbier5385]

Nearly as quick as my Dyna dude 😎

[@MakaJerycho]

Doubt it That Dyna is a destroyer!!!!!

[@davewilkirson2320]

As in dynasour.

[@bazab9495]

Ahh now then... I'm not stalking you but.... I'm 99% sure it was you guys today in Doncaster about 10:30'ish... I was stuck at the lights in my artic when you all headed east on M18 😊

[@MakaJerycho]

Not today dude I’m washing the cars and mowing the lawn 🤣🤣🤣

[@bazab9495]

@@MakaJerycho Well bugger, then you've got a doppelganger... White Harley DYNA, black jacket with orange, top of the shoulders/back, HD logo and about 12 other riders on various bikes... Think I'll have to go to SpecSavers 🥸🧐🙃

[@bazab9495]

I think I might have seen you last w/end at a roadside Starbucks on the A19 near Thirsk?

[@MakaJerycho]

Wasn’t us dude. Last weekend we stopped at Scot corner services and another briefly on the M1. 🤭

[@MakaJerycho]

Plus Starbucks don’t pay tax…. Fk Starbucks 🤣

[@bazab9495]

@@MakaJerycho Ahh another group with a white Harley in it, must admit I was going north and caught the bikes out the corner of my eye on the South side

[@michaellilley6725]

I thought you'd get excited about this one, so look out for the commenter who says he switches off at fake screams of delight. As an owner of a Rocket 3 GT Triple Black, I was able to put him right, my son's first reaction as pillion was "F'n Wow!!". It does feel much lighter to ride than it ought to but it's certainly not light, especially trying to maneuver it in tight spaces. I'm a bit peeved with Triumph for releasing the Storm, they've copied the blacked out looks of the "Black" R and " Triple Black" GT whilst also adding the extra power of the " TFC". Since each of these is a " Limited edition " model, owners of them I believe had a right to some exclusivity. Still there's no getting away from the fact it's an awesome bike, probably the best engineered production bike on the market.

[@MakaJerycho]

I found the turning circle a bit of a ball ache 🤣🤣🤣 You’ll see in the next episode Sunday as well as I struggle to get it round a parked car 🤣 Such an incredible motor But after doing the weekend circuit on it (coming to YT) I had range anxiety as it only seems to do 130 mile per tank! If you twist that throttle in sport mode…that tank empties fast 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@michaellilley6725]

@@MakaJerycho Thanks for your reply, Yes those two are it's Achilles heel, manoeuvring in tight spaces and range anxiety. The latter is made worse by striving to always treat it to the good stuff. To counter those though for some balance, 1) it's a two and a half litre engine on two wheels, bigger than many cars these days, 2) twisting that throttle is so addictive and four car passes are a blast 😊😊😂😂

[@theodorstravels]

Always wanted to try one of those, but I doubt I'd want to own one. My Valkyrie looks so much better 😛 / Wait... what bike make a butt sore in 20 min?

[@MakaJerycho]

Well after a 400+ round trip the seat didn’t make my butt sore I rode a bandit once 20mins my ar$e was square

[@theodorstravels]

@@MakaJerycho I have not tried a bandit, but couple other nakeds and they were fine. Pure sportsbike seat is quite uncomfortable, but you're not supposed to be sitting on it anyway. You need to be hanging off the side all the time on those 😁

[@MakaJerycho]

Head down Ass up 🤣

[@royz6872]

A Rocket is far better looking than any Valkyrie.

[@saltire546]

Compaired to a Hardley Movin Son the the rocket is a Rolls Royce Wriath and the Harley a John Deere Tractor.

[@MakaJerycho]

I’d of gone with a rolls Royce strapped to an afterburner Vs and HD skateboard 🤣🤣🤭
