I had a BSA Rocket 3 many years ago...
Between a Rocket and a hard place.
The BSA version of the triple was labelled the Rocket 3, or officially the A75, while the Triumph became the Trident or T150. As previously stated, the BSA had its cylinders inclined forward, which dictated that the crankcases also differed from the Trident, as did the covers for the timing side and gearbox. The block was cast in aluminium alloy with pressed-in iron liners which were deeply spigotted into the cases. As the crankshaft was a forging, bolted-up light alloy conrods were used. The cylinder block casting also carried the alloy tappet guide blocks which were pressed into place; one between each cylinder at the front and rear of the block. Those on the right side carried a pair of tappets while the left one had a single tappet. Into these fitted the aluminium pushrods which had hardened steel end caps.

Petty argument?
They are courting and getting pretty close to first base.
She has a fabulous ass. She just needs the right man to buy her some shoes, and it ain’t me!
My K1200R. Dino’d to the wheel at 167 HP, around 110 lbs torque and around 425lbs in weight.
My ZX-14, dino’d at 178HP to the rear wheel, can’t remember the torque but I think it was in the 125 + range. About 475 in weight.
Neat.
The Rocket III is a cruiser, and obviously not made to compete in the same market as liter-bikes. Hell, with a +98” wheelbase it barely manages to turn off a 2 lane road without entering into the opposing lane of traffic. It’s the semi-tractor of motorcycles.
Shoulder-pulling, straight-line power from 0-60, upright cruising comfort with forward controls, and the balls to move around on the tollway without downshifting is more than enough for me.
178whp would only get my DL taken away or get me killed.
