Triumph's new Rocket III arrives at Lone Star

V-twin's view of the Rocket III

We have a feeling that V-twin riders will get very accustomed to this view of the Triumph Rocket III. Notice those three big exhaust pipes? The alloy rear wheel sports a 16-inch x 7.5-inch tire. Yes, a 7.5-inch wide rear tire. A 12.4-inch diameter disc rotor provides plenty of rear braking power.
