  TEAM! I MESSED UP. <br><br>Unfortunately, I can&apos;t be perfect all the time 😂and I drew the DRY weight from the none storm version on the website!! It is pretty much the same weight, both around 317kg wet. Sorry for any confusion! It just felt a lot heavier than I remember which corroborated with my incorrect stat! <br><br>Hope you can forgive me, love you, bye!

  A completely different experience to any other bike on the planet, expensive yes but you pay for exclusivity. &nbsp;If only I could afford it, great video Kate as usual.

  G&apos;day from Oz ( Australia ), Kate ! ... Great to have a ladies perspective on the R3 :) .... My lovely wife ( 5&apos; 7&quot; , 105Lbs and very &quot;leggy&quot; ) &nbsp;hasn&apos;t ridden my 2022 R3 GT ( with the R position pegs on it ) yet - but I&apos;ve only owned it for a couple of months and I&apos;m still sorting it out / it hasn&apos;t been &quot;on the road&quot; &nbsp;for much - as yet ... but, as soon as It&apos;s finished having the upgrades done, she WILL be trying it out. ( She&apos;s ridden every bike I&apos;ve owned for the past 30 years - the V-Max, various Harleys, Indian Chiefs, V85 Moto Guzzi, Victory JACKPOT, various trikes etc - and her daily ride is a Softail Heritage Harley ... so I have zero doubt that she will be able to handle the Rocket 3 when it&apos;s ready :) &nbsp;She used to ride the V-Max in to downtown Sydney at night - to pick me up from work after I&apos;d finish, and she always had stories for me about some idiot in a car trying to blow her off on the Yamaha - only to learn the hard way about what the V-Max is capable of - HA !!! .... I can&apos;t wait for her to try the R3 out !!! ... For me, the Rocket 3 is just a constant rush of adrenalin - I can&apos;t stop smiling when I ride her :) :) :) .... and once it&apos;s finally properly set up for me ( I&apos;m a BIG boy ) - rear suspension upgraded, quick shifter fitted, front crash bars ( somewhere to mount the LED Driving / SPOT lights ( a MUST if you are an &quot;all weather / night &amp; day rider&quot; in Oz ) and also the airhorn !!! ( I cannot believe HOW &nbsp;PATHETIC the R3 horn IS &nbsp;:( ... ), customised exhaust and the CPU remapped on a Dyno to release the FULL power ( you ARE aware that &quot;even in SPORT mode - you only ever get 60% of the power&quot; &nbsp;- yes ?!?!? ) - THEN the fun &nbsp;r-e-a-l-l-y starts ! :) ... Thanks for the review - I&apos;ll show it to the gorgeous ( like you ), wife ! ... ( BTW - YES, you are correct, the bike DOES &quot;stand up&quot; when you get on the throttle - it&apos;s the mechanical reaction of the shaft drive trying to &quot;climb up&quot; &nbsp;the rear wheel crown wheel in the hub - an unavoidable effect on all shaft drive bikes ... everything has an &quot;action / reaction&quot; &nbsp;- as the shaft tries to turn the rear wheel by pushing down on the crown wheel gear, the reaction is that the shaft wants to &quot;climb the gear&apos; - which LIFTS the rear up slightly as you accelerate hard ... simples ! ... retired Engineer, here ) - LOVE to see petite, feminine women handling big bikes like the R3 :) - STAY &nbsp;SAFE !!!

  Every time you see the Rocket 3, it screams &quot;look at me, look at the engine, look at the exhaust&quot;. It&apos;s a real beast of a bike. To be honest, I&apos;m surprised that Chopsy didn&apos;t buy one. His height and build as a portly gentleman, suits him to the ground

  I&apos;m on my 2nd 3GT with mid position footrests &amp; Quickshifter.<br>When you ride a new one, I&apos;ve found it good to put the Rear Shock as soft as possible. &nbsp;It&apos;s still hard &amp; takes around 1000 miles to soften up.<br>I prefer the 3GT with swept back bars, heated grips, a slightly larger fly screen &amp; the cissy bar is handy for strapping luggage to or secure your helmet to it. &nbsp;(Also, stops you losing pillion riders 😂 ) &nbsp;<br>I also fitted mid position foot rests (like the 3R) ; I can&apos;t ride feet forward.

  Maybe the Autobahns, definitely the American Interstate motorways, but we don&apos;t have the roads over here to enjoy that beast to it&apos;s fullest.

  I have had my Rocket TFC for over 5 years now. &nbsp;Same power output as the Storm. &nbsp;It is a masterpiece of motorcycle engineering. &nbsp;It is not my only bike (all Triumph) but it is the one that I will never sell. &nbsp;I&apos;m 30,000 miles in and have done numerous tours (last one being 12 countries in 12 days). &nbsp;It is perfection for me. &nbsp;And yes, the quickshifter is sublime (standard on the TFC). &nbsp;All pros, no cons!
