I ride a Newish Rocket 3 trike regularly
I had an original BSA Rocket 3 in the 70's but it was unreliable and forever breaking down, bit like a modern day 1200
Sold it at a descent profit to a bloke who has still got it, he rebuilt it over 7 years
virtually re-engineering it...
Now it runs properly
the Modern one I love whether in Trike or Bike form, sheer Brute torque and power.
I will not have one because my license would soon disappear
In trike form I saw 5600 revs on A30.
4000 revs = 100mph
It did not feel anywhere near that fast,
120 mph on my FJ1100 seems faster than the Rocket even with the FJ's fairing
any excuse for a pic

240 kph = 150 mph
