Triumph sales given rocket boost

[Bob]

Triumph, is celebrating sales of its new Rocket III, now officially the most successful model in the firm's history. According to Triumph, the Rocket III has generated more advanced orders, than any other Triumph bike, with over 2,000 orders received before production began in June.

Ross Clifford, the company's Product Development and Racing Manager, says the waiting list for the Rocket III is an indication of its success "If you put a deposit on a bike today, you woudn't get delivery until November," he said.

I seem to be in the minority on this bike,I think it`s frigging hideous,though I can see the Yanks going for it big-time.Nothing against Triumph,I really like the Thunderbird Sport,Tiger,TT100 and even the Bonnie America`s neat for what it is.Great to se them doing so well but the Rocket 3 is truly awful.

Just don't let Fishman near it...

I quite like the look of it. Look's really grunty.

Not too fussed with how they put the footpegs on though. Looks a bit like "How are we going to get around that motor so the rider can put their feet up?"

It's not going to stop me going around to WMCC for a look and drool over it.

Next weekend, eh? Time to start begging to be let out...

Personally I'd rather go for the Yammy MT-01 if I was looking for a bike in this category.
