Featured Rocket Feckin How Much

Yes, I was somewhat perturbed by the pricing also. For that, I'd want it to be like something from Transformers where you press a button and it folds itself into an invisible pocket on the bike.

I've got my Commander for haulage anyway I guess, I might sling the saddlebags more permanently on that, and if I need to carry stuff, I take that bike.

 

What a good idea you can post how your getting on with all the things your going to make.
I'm so excited don't think I will be able to sleep tonight.
Love Tucker

 

Thinking of going solo with my 57 America if I can find a rear mudguard rack which doesn't look s**the I have all the rear eat, rack and sissy bar, might be available

 

Oops just realised you probly mean for the rocket thingymybob

 

Hey @dilligaf - you better clear off your stool - we await your craftsmanship ( old washing up bottles, mdf, sticky tape)

 

Come on Graham, let’s get a look at your metalwork skills!! I’ll just inform them at migweldingforum so they all can watch!!

 

What else are you adding on Dilli? That backrest and the mounting brackets are so expensive

Maybe dealer will give you some discount?

 

You would wonder how they justify it - the GT with all that plus heated grips is only £750.00 more.

 

Addendum - I know you don't get the panniers and rails included on GT

 

Dealer included mine

 

Couple of other upgrade ideas?

 

Of course you will, Dilli. Of course you will. And we'll get to watch you do it. And guess what you're making!

 

Your not surprised are you @dilligaf , Triumph have roped you in with £20k for your bike and now want to rape you every time want to upgrade it. Good business if you can get.....

 

customer if mine pre ordered a NSX Nissan way back. £500 for car mats!
When you buy top of the range vehicles and bikes (and have performance similar to a Ferrari) I’m afraid everything is going to be prices at a premium.
If Triumph know you can afford a £20k+ bike then they are definitely going to charge you more for accessories.
Just looked at the T100 luggage price and it’s half the price of the Rocket.

All that being as it is I do think motorcycle luggage is far too expensive for what it is.
In the main they are plastic for an extortionate price.

 

As I said, good business if you can get it ....
