The Triumph Rocket 3 was a motorcycle made by Triumph from 2019 until the present (2023). Like its Rocket III predecessor, the Rocket 3 model was characterized by the largest displacement engine ever fitted on a production motorcycle.
The Triumph Rocket 3 was released in three different versions with different characteristics but similar appearances: the sports-oriented Triumph Rocket 3 R, the touring-oriented Rocket 3 GT, and the limited edition Rocket 3 TFC.
In 2019, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Rocket 3 TFC, a limited edition motorcycle made in 750 units, each with a numbered edition plaque and unique badging.
The bike presented a muscular appearance with signature features like twin LED headlights, a three-header exhaust muffler, a distinctive single-sided swingarm, interchangeable single and twin leather seats, and carbon fiber bodywork.
In the technology department, the motorcycle had higher functionality second-generation TFT instruments, an optimized cornering ABS system, traction control, four riding modes, and Triumph Shift Assist.
As for the power figures, the 2019 Triumph Rocket 3 TFC had installed underneath its fuel tank a massive and stylish 2,458cc three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a ride-by-wire system, delivering 170 hp with maximum strength at 8,000 rpm and 221 Nm (163 lb-ft) torque at 4,000 rpm.
The bike's power was handled by a six-speed manual transmission with a hydraulically operated clutch with a slip-assist function, spinning the rear wheel through a final shaft drive.
