Rider Profile

Best For	This is a machine best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable managing enormous mass and torque at low speeds.
Purpose	Built for effortless, high-torque long-distance cruising rather than nimble sport riding, with massive shaft-driven muscle to eat highway miles.
Rider Fit	Its nearly 400kg wet weight and low-speed heft demand good upper body strength and confidence in parking lots, U-turns, and stop-and-go traffic.
Character	A brutish, torque-monster tourer that flexes a huge triple-cylinder engine while wrapping the rider in cruiser-style comfort and long-haul amenities.
Not Ideal For	This is not the bike for riders seeking flickable agility, off-road capability, or a lightweight, easy-to-manage commuter.

Inseam (optional)

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 750mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Triumph Rocket III Touring, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
