The Rocket 3 is definitely comfortable. Mine is the Gt but I have the mid foot controls. I hate the forward foot controls. The 2nd Gen Vmax is not as comfortable as the Rocket 3, but both are far more comfortable than a 1000 cc sportbike. As far as power goes, the Vmax and the Rocket will out run most sportbikes up to about 140 mph, from my experience. And they will dominate any Harley, even built Harley's. My friends have spent thousands on their Harley's engines only to be destroyed by the Vmax and Rocket 3. The sportbikes will pull past at 140 plus as they have much higher top speeds. I have a video roll racing a Yamaha R1 m on my Vmax and completely dominating the R1 up to 160. Get a Triumph Rocket 3 and have it tuned. You will have a smile on your face every time you ride.

@@6343bryan thanks for the response. This is exactly the type of info I came looking for! When I bought my Gixxer brand new in '04, it was the faster quarter mile production bike in the world, and I topped it out at 186 mph more than once lol. So going from that to a Victory Magnum was a rude awakening. I'd like something in between, and I think the Rocket 3 might be the ticket. Thanks again!

@@6343bryan do you have a link to the video of the R1 race?

​@Jayme969 go to my youtube page and look at my Shorts videos. You will see it

facebook.com/marketplace/item/1657534598338820/?mibextid=dXMIcH My son is currently selling the Vmax in this Video. It's in Waxahachie tx

Yea. Both bikes are incredible. The Vmax in this Video is Currently for sale. It's on Facebook Marketplace Waxahachie Tx.

Thanks! 👍

Well the front bumper is really strong but the rear bumper is very thin steel. I caught a rock on my stock bumper and peeled mine backwards about a foot. I now have a high clearance Chassis unlimited bumper. It's really strong and protects all the way around to the rear tires. Also gives you about a foot of extra ground clearance.

Yes they are. They are basically a very heavy duty Rubicon. I went everywhere these Rubicon Gladiators went at Merus adventure .

The Vmax is a incredible bike, and when tuned are scary. I own the R3 in this video and my son owns the Vmax. Comparing both Tuned bikes. The have very similar acceleration. Alot depends on who gets the jump. Roll racing, the R3 gets the jump on the Vmax, but the Vmax catches up quickly. Top speed, the R3 wins by about 10 mph top speed. The 6th gear on the R3 gives it the edge. Both bikes are Monsters. I'm really hoping a 3rd Gen Vmax is in the works. I owned several Vmax's and Love them.

@@6343bryan Dude, thanks for the reply! VERY few people have info on both bikes and a R3 salesman kept telling me how superior the R3 is to the VMax (yawn). At the end of the day, I truly believe it comes down to the rider. As I said, I had my ECU flashed and all the restrictions were removed. The bike will put out about 20 more HP and torque, but Id love to see it raced against an R3. Both are AWESOME bikes!!!

​@glickmpb yea, when i bought the R3, the salesman said the R3 would destroy a Vmax. I found out later that day he was lying when i Raced my son on his Vmax. Haha. Thats what made me get my R3 tuned at Texas Superbikes which then gave me the edge over the stock Vmax. Unfortunately my son then got his Vmax tuned at the same location. The R3 acceleration is less violent than the Vmax. Its Smooth and consistent. The Vmax is just a scary Beast. Both bikes leave you smiling and when you return home from a ride your arms and shoulders are sore from hanging on.

@@6343bryan There are things I like about my VMax and things I don’t. I’m one of these guys that has never found a perfect bike. There are always things I don’t like. Don’t get me wrong, I love my VMax and will never get rid of it but 80 miles per tank?? The scoops are pretty fuggly too, but the power is what makes everything ok 😀 I also hate the fact that the rear tire is too small! It should have been a 220, but it is what it is. The R3 looks badass from the mid back, but the front wheel makes it look like a bobber. The dual headlight is iconic but I never cared for it. I sat in one and found it wide between my legs. I had a 2006 Hayabusa I bought new years ago and I think my VMax is faster. I have done a bunch of little things to it that I really love… Hardwired radar detector, LEDs, Denali Soundbomb horn, Corbin seat, Vantrue F1 cameras. It’s awesome!! 😀

197

Yes they are. I would have never made it over the rock lip without them.

It's got a Borla exhaust with Resonator delete. 37" Nitto trail Graplers, with 2.5 leveling kit on front. Kmc wheels

Also when he hit the obstacle at angle. Try to follow through at the angle so the rear tires can clamber up 1 at a time as well

I know

LOL

agree with you about the back tire. I have a 240 with aftermarket 8" rim. I just replaced both tires this weekend...that rear is a PITA to remove.

@@chuckgarand8456 I just put a Vantrue F1 Dash cam on mine. Absolutely AWESOME!!!

ROFL! Actually, it isn't and youre wrong about everything you said.

@@glickmpb Wow, you really showed me punkin. Lol, one hopes you can comprehend sarcasm.

@@jimanders9971 Hey man, writing is a skill... You need to clean up your writing!

@@glickmpb C’mon buttercup, do better than that. I will give you a Mulligan buttercup, try again.

@@glickmpb Aw c’mon buttercup! Dont give up!

😂😂

ya ok buddy ! lol

@@andrewtaylor4554 I am spiffy buttercup

Yes the tuned Vmax is a straight up MONSTER. The Rocket 3 is extremely fast but the Vmax pulls ahead slightly. The tuned Triumph in the video does however beat the Vmax on top speed runs. Having a 6th gear makes the difference.

@@6343bryanwhats the power and torque figure for both than ?

@@mociczyczki the Vmax was tuned on the Dyno by Texas Superbikes. The Vmax made 175 hp at the wheel and 165 torque. The Rocket 3 was also dyno tuned by Texas Superbikes. It made 165 hp at the wheel and 163 torque.

@@6343bryan torq for rocket is ok power after tune too but vmax stock make 170-175 hp on whell and torque 163 is to high for N/A 1679 cc especially at the whell without charge its imposibble 🫣 🤷🏻‍♂️stock have 123 lbf ft at crank 👌🏻 at whell like 100-110 lbf ft at specified velocity 163 lbf ft at the wahell for n/a vmax 1679 cc is imposibble 👌🏻

​@To co lubie I may be wrong on the Vmax torque. It's my son's bike. I know it made 175 wheel hp. I'll double check on the torque and let you know

Yes. You have to turn off traction control completely. Also traction is a factor. The road in the video is concrete that has alot of grip. The bike was stock in the video. Last week I had it tuned at Texas Superbikes. It turned my Rocket from a fast bike to a absolute Monster. Cost $1000 but it was worth every penny. I now have 100% throttle in all gears and there's no top speed limiter now. Check out my Dyno video.

Have you tried top speed yet after the remap. I would like to delimit mine too. Mine has got the Tuneecu map.

@JimJuno I've been 156 mph in 5th gear but ran out of road before I could get into 6th gear. I went to Texas Superbikes in Dallas tx. He did a great job. I have 100 percent throttle in all gears and top speed limiter was removed. The bike is much faster than stock. All I do is smile every time I ride it. My arms are actually sore after riding now from holding on. Seriously...

@@6343bryan Nothing really compares to a Rocket with a remap does it. When someone says you'll get used to it eventually ... Two years after the remap... 🤯🥳

​@@6343bryanHere a question... did you clutch it up or used the suspension? Did you deflate the tires to have it come up? Because mine really wants to spin rather then lift the front. I read your comment mentioning the pavement and I pay attention to this (with a rocket you really need to sometimes coming out of a corner)

Thanks. I gotta get a new cameraman

Its got a Delkevic with cat Delete. Almost sounds like a V8 in person.

Sounds great!

@Triumph Lover thanks. We've also got a Triumph Rocket 3 , 2020 model which is also a Beast.

I know.....

It's at Rocky Ridge riding ranch. It's just west of Sanger tx. Great place.

Yes sir. Great place

Haha yes

Thanks. Your gonna love your yxz. Just remember, stay on the gas on the jump.

Hahaha...our speeds heading to a 50

Yes. It also has the Mpi turbo
