2005 TRIUMPH ROCKET III CLEAN & LOW MILES LOADED WITH ACCESSORIES!
The Triumph Rocket III is the biggest, most bad-ass motorcycle money can buy. The specs are awesome a 2.3-litre engine producing almost 150ft lb of torque, pistons the same size as those found in a Dodge Viper supercar and what was at one time the biggest back tyre on a production bike… The Triumph Rocket III is simply an incredible experience and bravo to Triumph for making it. "Oh...my...God." That's the typical response coming from riders getting off the new Triumph. It doesn't really matter if the tester is a cruiserphile, a road racer, a touring rider...a vintage nut. It's all the same when it comes to the Rocket III. "This bike is too fun!" The declaration "too fun" may seem subjective, but it's actually a near-perfect description of this bike's phenomenal torque output. At 2300cc you'd expect an adrenal goose, and the Triumph delivers. Like a rainy-day run on a wooden rollercoaster or a date with a Victoria's Secret model, a ride on the Rocket III is an experience that exceeds everyday expectation. It's such fun to uncork 141 foot-pounds of grunt right off the light, in fact, that you might wonder how much fun is healthy. And then, as you hurtle along, shifting through the gears in a torque-curve plateau large enough to build condos on, you'll know. This is way too much fun. The long-anticipated Rocket III Triumph, with outrageous capacity and styling to match, is finally ready for action. Yes, it's hulking. Some think it's an eyesore. But no one-we repeat, no one-can call the Rocket short on character. Almost absurdly its own thing, this is a motorcycle with its own drummer. Heck, it's a motorcycle with its own band! The standout feature of this new motorcycle is undeniably its massive three-cylinder mill, which boasts pistons similar in size to those found in a Dodge Viper. The engine's exterior dimension and finish is a bit automotivesque as well, but Triumph stylists made it work, punctuating the huge cast-alloy cases with chrome accents, and, well, building a bike around it that was brutish enough to provide a bit of balance. The fuel-injected triple bursts to life easily and settles into a rather delicate whir, reminiscent of BMW's K75 series, so popular here in the '80s and '90s. This bike is many things a V-twin cruiser is not, beginning with the no-bark, all-bite sound. A slew of aftermarket pipes is inevitable, of course, so one can make the Triumph sound truly evil. The torque produced by the 2300cc engine is not only profound, it's very well managed. Our Dyno run revealed a max of 141 foot-pounds at 2500 rpm, but torque comes on right off throttle, reaching 140 foot-pounds quickly and remaining in peak range for another 1500 rpm. Conveniently, this is the range of rpm where most street riding is done, so the Rocket III pilot is always in the grunt, at least until the motor is wound above 5000 rpm where horsepower becomes the name of the game (132.4 at 6250 rpm). This bike hurtles, for sure. PLEASE E-MAIL OR CALL 520-904-3302 WITH ANY QUESTIONS. OFFERED AT NO RESERVE WITH A STARTING BID OF ONLY $1.00 HIGHEST BIDDER OWNS IT! Rocket is in very good condition.
