2006 Triumph Trike Rocket 111 Tri, ROCKET III LIMITED Special Edition WITH BAT WING, UPGRADED SADDLE BAGS AND A TOW PACK. PICTURES DOES NOT DO ITS JUSTICE. The Rocket III has carved a unique niche in the clone-like cruiser market and exists in a class all its own with its striking looks, stunning performance and incredible specification. But while it may be the largest capacity production motorcycle in the world it's designed first and foremost to be ridden. Good lock-to-lock movement, seamless fuel-injection and a low centre of gravity combine to make low speed manoeuvring surprisingly easy, while the steering geometry and overall length give a securely planted and confident feel. Added to this is generous ground clearance, making the Rocket III a truly useable machine that will tour highways, cruise streets and hustle turns with effortless ability. Engine Type Liquid-cooled, DOHC, in-line 3-cylinder, Capacity 2294cc, Bore/Stroke 101.6 x 94.3mm, Compression Ratio 8.7:1, Fuel System Multipoint sequential electronic fuel injection, Ignition Digital - inductive type - via electronic engine management systemPrimary Drive Gear, Final Drive Shaft, Clutch Wet, multi-plate, Gearbox 5-speed Fuel Tank Capacity 24 litres (6.3 gal US) Maximum Power 142PS (140bhp) at 6,000 rpm, Maximum Torque 200Nm (147ft.lbf) at 2,500 rpm, The Rocket III is not only the world's largest capacity production motorcycle, it's also a bike without equal. Its unique, fuel-injected, triple cylinder engine has a cubic capacity of 2,294cc - that's 140 cubic inches - and uses massive, 101.6mm diameter pistons. It makes 147ft-lbs of torque at 2,750rpm. This incredible output means even two-up the Rocket III accelerates incredibly hard without obvious effort, and relentless forward motion is just a slight twist of throttle away. The word awesome is often overused in connection with motorcycles. Except when it's used in connection with the Rocket III. Then it's barely adequate.
