Triumph Pays Tribute to Evel Knievel with Limited Edition Rocket 3s

Evel Knievel, the legendary motorcycle stuntman, continues to inspire even in the modern era. While his death-defying feats on powerful, yet often ill-suited motorcycles remain unmatched, Triumph Motorcycles has now paid homage to the icon with two limited-edition Rocket 3 models.

These special editions, the Rocket 3 R Evel Knievel and Rocket 3 GT Evel Knievel, feature distinctive liveries inspired by Knievel’s iconic white jumpsuit and adorned with his signature stars and stripes graphics. Chrome fuel tanks add a touch of classic flair, though they might require extra attention to keep them gleaming.

To ensure authenticity, each bike boasts a unique start-up screen animation and a gold cam cover plate engraved with the Evel Knievel signature logo. Furthermore, each owner will receive a commemorative hardback book chronicling Knievel’s career and his enduring relationship with Triumph motorcycles.

The Rocket 3 R Evel Knievel Limited Edition is priced at £25,495 (approximately $31,921 USD), while the Rocket 3 GT Evel Knievel Limited Edition commands a slightly higher price of £26,195 (approximately $32,798 USD).

These limited-edition models are a testament to Knievel’s enduring legacy and a fitting tribute to his audacious spirit.
