ROCKET III CLASSIC

 

Changes for 2007: 

·         Three new paint schemes - Phantom Black/Sunset Red; Phantom Black/ Tornado Red; Pacific Blue/New England White

 

CRUISER STYLE, ROCKET PERORMANCE 

The Rocket III Classic is a true cruising motorcycle, and one firmly focused on rider and pillion comfort.  It’s aimed squarely at those who favour a more laid back approach to motorcycling and features a relaxed riding position with forward set footboards, pull-back handlebars plus a supremely comfortable stitched touring seat as standard. 

Of course, the 2.3 litres three-cylinder furnace that drives the Classic still burns white-hot and the incredible levels of flexibility this unique engine offers makes for effortless riding whether two-up, fully loaded with luggage or solo.  Sophisticated fuel injection feeds in power seamlessly, with controlled acceleration on tap at the twist of a throttle, while a maintenance free shaft drive delivers forward motion to the rear rubber. 

Excellent lock-to-lock movement, an incredibly light clutch and low centre of gravity make low speed manoeuvring extremely easy while the steering geometry and overall length give a securely planted feel at all speeds.  Supple 43mm upside down forks and twin rear shocks add composure; twin front disc brakes with four-piston calipers and single disc rear give incredible stopping power.  Generous ground clearance completes the package and the relaxed, comfortable ergonomics allow the rider to take full advantage of the range provided by the 24 litres fuel tank (6.3 gal US) making the Rocket III Classic a perfect long distance cruiser. 

Three brand new two-tone paint schemes are available; Phantom Black and Sunset Red with gold coach lines, Phantom Black and Tornado Red with silver coach lines or Pacific Blue and New England White with gold coach lines.  Setting off the stunning paint is the black-finished engine with its deep-chromed cam cover, while the three cone silencer end finishers add a final flourish to what is a truly distinctive machine.
