Arguably the first
‘Superbike’, the Rocket 3 was quite
a sensation when launched with it’s snappy
acceleration, good styling, high top speed for
it’s day able, to cruise at 90 to 100mph
with excellent steering. The bikes are becoming
sought after and can be expensive to run. Rarer
than the equivalent Triumphs Tridents as BSA
stopped production in 1972.
