Triumph Rocket 3 GT
It turns out the latest generation Rocket with a 2500cc three cylinder really is as good as those great reviews I read. I bought this bike without ever having ridden one, and after my first short ride I knew I had made the right decision for me.
As usual, I set out to make changes that would make the bike more unique for me, and this profile outlines the journey and results. I will update these pages as I add new stuff, so check back often to see the latest.

The Design Journey
As usual, prior to ordering stuff I like to take time to do a prototype in Photoshop... to give me an idea of what I want to end up with.
