For overseas markets, Triumph has unveiled its new limited edition Rocket 3 models. These bikes, which are offered in R and GT trim levels, are only aesthetically distinct versions of the regular models. These limited editions will be made in honour of the renowned stuntman Evel Knievel. Here are the modifications made to the new Triumph Rocket 3.
Despite the fact that Rocket is the last motorbike Evel would have used to do his amazing stunts. So, Triumph still opted to decorate it with images reminiscent of his iconic jumpsuit. The chrome-finished fuel tank is detailed with stars and black stripes, as well as the "Triumph" logo.
Triumph has included a unique screen start-up animation. Moreover, there is a gold laser-etched cam cover plate featuring Evel Knievel's signature to demonstrate the authenticity of these bikes. Furthermore, owners of these motorcycles are eligible to receive a hardcover book that tells the stuntman's story.
Beyond the aforementioned aesthetic modifications, the Triumph Rocket 3 Evel Knievel Edition maintains its powertrain. The motorbike is powered by the same 2,500cc inline three-cylinder engine that produces 165 bhp and 221Nm of torque. Furthermore, this setup is paired with the 6-speed gearbox.
As with the regular Rocket 3 R and GT, the mechanical parameters are unchanged. The GT leans more towards being a cruiser with a larger flyscreen. A pillion grabs rail and footpegs that are a little more forward-set than the R. Whilst the former is more of a roadster with a neater appearance.
Although the GT costs Rs 22.59 lakh ex-showroom in India, the Triumph Rocket 3 R is priced at Rs 21.99 lakh ex-showroom. India is unlikely to see the new Triumph Rocket 3 Evel Knievel Edition, but it is not impossible.
