We take a look at the Triumph Rocket X, something so exclusive that only five ever reached South Africa.
Somehow, though, with this bike it didn’t get the exposure and limelight it could have, and that might be due to the limited nature of its production. I am sure without lifting a finger, Triumph had all 500 accounted for as they made the announcement. And so, the need to advertise and make a spectacle in the media and publications just didn’t happen. It’s one of those bikes that was known to those that needed to know, and they moved fast and secured their 1 of 500. Five of the Rocket Xs made their way to South Africa, and because I wasn’t a part of the hype in 2015, I missed out. I am fortunate enough to know Rob Milne, the lucky owner of one, and here in the present of 2017 I got my hands on his 451 of 500 for some studio time and a much-anticipated ride.
