Along with the Rocket 3 Black, Triumph has also revealed the Rocket 3 GT Triple Black. The new model of the powerful cruiser features several blacked-out parts and components for a much more dominant visual appeal. It is a limited edition variant and only 1000 units will be available worldwide. Each model will come with a personalised certificate of authenticity detailing the VIN. The Triumph Rocket 3 GT Triple Black is expected to start arriving at dealerships around the globe from mid-April onwards.
Just like the black edition of its roadster sibling, the Triumph Rocket 3 GT Triple Black has several dedicated blacked-out elements with premium finishes and details that impart a sinister look to the motorcycle. The laid-back and comfortable GT model features a sophisticated dark style with a distinctive three-shade paint scheme. Some of the blacked-out parts of the motorcycle include:
