The 2026 Triumph Rocket 3 Storm R and GT versions have recently been introduced into the global market. The Indian prices of these motorcycles will begin at approximately Rs 22.5 lakh and Rs 23 lakh (ex-showroom), respectively. With this new model year (MY26), the company has added these high-performance cruiser motorcycles with new color options. There has been no alteration in their engine or mechanical configuration, though.

The Storm R variant of the Rocket 3 is now available in a new two-tone color - Satin Baja Orange and Matte Sapphire Black, with a silver coachline. Aside from this, there will be additional color options in this variant, such as Carnival Red, Satin Pacific Blue, and Granite, which are combined with Sapphire Black.

The GT variant has also been given a new and sharp look, which has a combination of Satin Granite and Matte Sapphire Black. Along with this, the Korosi Red coachline is available. In this version, the flyscreen, mudguards, headlight bowl, radiator cowl, and side panels of the bike are all finished in sapphire black.

The Rocket 3 Storm series is powered by a 2,458cc engine, which is the largest engine found in any production bike. This three-cylinder engine comes with a 6-speed gearbox and produces 180 bhp of power at 7,000 rpm and 225 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm.

Both models receive a full-color TFT instrument panel with Bluetooth connectivity. It includes turn-by-turn directions, call and media control, and ride data logging. Safety-wise, the bike receives cornering ABS, lean-sensitive traction control, cruise control, hill hold assist, and four riding modes (road, red, sport, and rider-configurable). The GT model also receives special attention in terms of comfort, including heated grips and an ergonomic touring configuration.

The foundation of this cruiser bike is a lightweight aluminum frame, which features a single-sided cast aluminum swingarm. Talking about the suspension, there are 47 mm USD cartridge forks in the front, which are completely adjustable. And at the back, Showa's completely adjustable piggyback reservoir unit has been awarded.

The bike has 17-inch cast aluminum alloy wheels at the front and 16-inch wheels at the rear. Dual 320 mm disc brakes have been given at the front and a single 300 mm disc at the rear, which makes the braking performance even better.

This new Rocket 3 Storm series from Triumph will soon be seen on Indian roads. This is going to be a great option for those who want a great combination of power, style, and technology.
