ACCESSORIES

Quickshifter £340 » A perverse choice as you don’t have to change gear much on the Rocket. But a quickshifter would make acceleration even more fun.

Connectivity module £205 » This lets you hook up your phone’s Googlemaps to the TFT screen, and you can use it to control a Gopro too. Should have been standard really.

Knee pads £73 » The tank is so wide it’s easy to scratch the paint with your knees if you’re not careful. These Triumph pads are pricey but look the part.

Sport panniers £470 » If you plan to use the GT (or R for that matter) for some Grand Touring, you’ll need these 20-litre panniers. The fitting kit is another, and considerable, £345.
