CELEBRATING THE ORIGINAL DAREDEVIL
TRIUMPH UNVEILS TWO NEW ROCKET 3 EVEL KNIEVEL LIMITED EDITIONS
Triumph Motorcycles has unveiled two new Limited Edition Rocket 3 motorcycles, celebrating the legendary partnership between Evel Knievel and Triumph. Offering riders a rare opportunity to own a piece of daredevil history with a record-breaking pedigree, Triumph will be making just 500 of these special motorcycles available around the world.
The new Rocket 3 R and GT Evel Knievel Limited Editions honour the enduring relationship between Triumph and Knievel, from his first televised performance riding a Bonneville T120, to his breakthrough leap over the fountains at Caesars Palace.
Featuring stunning full chrome fuel tanks, the Limited Editions take inspiration from Knievel’s iconic white jumpsuit, adorned with Knievel’s iconic stars and stripes graphic on a crisp white base. The matching rear bodywork and contrasting matt Sapphire Black panels, are paired with statement leather seats featuring a gold-embroidered Evel Knievel signature logo, creating a bold, impressive look.
Each bike features a unique start-up screen animation and individually numbered black and gold cam cover plate, laser-etched with the Evel Knievel signature logo. Every owner will also receive an exclusive collector’s edition hardback book telling the story of Evel Knievel and his Triumphs, individually numbered to match their bike.
NEW ROCKET 3 R EVEL KNIEVEL LIMITED EDITIONDISTINCTIVE DESIGN AND PREMIUM FINISHES
The Rocket 3 R and GT, with their record-breaking 2500cc engines, deliver power, performance and agility worthy of the world’s most famous daredevil motorcyclist. As well as generating a phenomenal 225Nm of torque and 182PS at 7000rpm, the Limited Editions benefit from a lightweight aluminium frame, high-specification suspension components, and top-tier braking performance, delivering effortless response and handling.
Triumph Motorcycles’ Chief Commercial Officer Paul Stroud said: “Evel Knievel performed many stunts on Triumph motorcycles during the 60’s, but his jump at Caesar’s Palace on a T120 TT, was the moment he created a legend that has inspired generations of fans. Working with the Knievel family, we have created two striking Limited Editions that are as spectacular on the road as Evel Knievel was in his heyday. With just 250 of each model available globally featuring beautiful Knievel design touches and with a specially commissioned book celebrating his achievements with Triumph, these Rocket 3 Limited Editions will appeal to collectors, fans and the thrill seekers among us.”
