The Triumph Rocket III was a cruiser motorcycle manufactured by the British Triumph from 2004 to 2017. Until Triumph released another Rocket 3 in 2019, the Rocket III had the largest displacement engine ever fitted on a production motorcycle.

In addition to the base Rocket III model, the maker made available the Classic, Roadster, Tourer, and Touring versions with different characteristics but similar appearances. The Rocket III name came from the 1968 750cc BSA pushrod triple, a badge-engineered version of the original Triumph Trident.

In 2004, the manufacturer started developing the Triumph Rocket III Touring and released it into the cruiser world in 2007. The machine targeted the large cruiser market, representing 50 percent of all American motorcycle sales.

Compared to the base model, the Touring version featured a new frame and swingarm design, more torque, less power, a 16-inch front wheel, tank-mounted instruments, billet aluminum slotted wheels, and narrower tires.

In 2010, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Rocket III touring, a cruising machine in its fourth year of production. The 2010 motorcycle was still powered by the largest displacement engine ever fitted on a production machine.

Underneath its fuel tank, the 2010 Triumph Rocket III Touring had installed a stylish and massive 2,294cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 106 hp at 6,000 rpm and 203 Nm (150 lb-ft) torque at low 2,500 rpm.
