We determine the twisting Sato–Tate group of the genus 3 hyperelliptic curve $y^2 = x^8 - 14x^2 + 1$ and show that all possible subgroups of the twisting Sato–Tate group arise as the Sato–Tate group of an explicit twist of $y^2 = x^8 - 14x^2 + 1$ . Furthermore, we prove the generalized Sato–Tate conjecture for the Jacobians of all $\mathbb{Q}$-twists of the curve $y^2 = x^8 - 14x^2 + 1$
