In 2011, the British motorcycle maker released the Triumph Rocket III Touring, a cruiser machine that debuted in 2007. The 2011 model came with two new classic color schemes: Metallic Phantom Black with a hand-painted silver coach lining and a two-tone Phantom Black with Crystal White infills.
In addition, the 2011 model had fitted standard features, such as drilled oval mirrors, a headlamp visor, a luggage rack, a rear fender rail, auxiliary lamps, a touring seat, engine dresser bars, highway pegs, a Roadster windscreen, and an adjustable passenger backrest.
In the braking department, the machine packed two 320 mm discs with four-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 316 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear wheel, enhanced by a standard-fitted Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS).
As for suspension, the Touring model packed a 43 mm upside-down fork with 120 mm wheel travel on the front and side-mounted adjustable shock absorbers on the rear, providing excellent handling capabilities.
The 2011 Triumph Rocket III Touring had installed underneath its fuel tank a massive and beautifully crafted 2,294cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a fuel injection system in charge, delivering 106 hp at 5,750 rpm and 203 Nm (150 lb-ft) torque at 2,500 rpm.
The engine power was transferred to the rear wheel through a five-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch and a final shaft drive.
In addition, the 2011 Triumph Rocket III Touring was released at an MSRP of $17,000 with standard accessories included.
