Just an awesome bike I was dreaming of it.
I was dreaming of this bike since when I was not able to drive a bike and I was under age too for my license. But when I got capable for driving licence than I purchased this bike. Wow. I was shocked that this bike's comfort and braking and other things was too good. The bike just shocked me because of its performance and other things too.

Triumph rocket 3
Looks super and easy to handle according to looks the rocket 3 was been booked and u can easy ride this bikes in traffic but the mist is the bike is some more weight compared to normal bikes and this can handle with single hand for good performance Most comfortable and you can easily cruise the bike and easy to handle on Highways and the comfort for long rides is superb even you can cruise in 120 without any fear and it's the best bike too as per the looks and performance Yes, I would recommend this bike for younger youth because some kind of heat would generate when you are riding in traffic but rest of the thing is superb and the pops( blast sound ) is top notch i recommend to buy this without any fear

Bike is stylish and good Beast
Bike is stylish and good looking and overall good experience with this bike but price is little bit higher on this segment. Another thing is low mileage and little bit weight is some discomfort factors for new riders. I rides 5 months to this bike in all types of roads like mountain,off-road,Highway I am satisfied.
