Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Rocket III Roadster 2011

The name says it all. While you're at it, optimise the rideability, why not add more power? Triumph perhaps thought the Roadster was underpowered with the 2.3 litre nuclear power plant and, with the installation of a new exhaust system and a few key combinations, increased the power and torque

Sporty feel

brutal power delivery

quiet, pleasant engine

ABS.

Very high total weight

complicated handling

not for inexperienced motorcyclists
