Indian broke new ground for American V-twins when developing its FTR
1200 – an aggressively styled creation that blends elements of flat
track, street and sport into one of the most unique motorcycles ever
developed. The introduction of the four accessory collections, and the
complete lineup of more than 40 parts and accessories, takes the FTR
1200 platform to another level, allowing riders to completely restyle
the bike into a personal expression unlike any other.
“In its stock form, the FTR 1200 is a beautifully-designed flat
track-inspired street bike with immense opportunity for personalization
and customization,” said Reid Wilson, Sr. Director for Indian
Motorcycle. “The new accessory lineup significantly elevates the FTR
1200 platform. Riders can completely restyle the look and feel of the
bike to better represent their riding style through one of our four
collections or by mixing and matching parts to create something truly
one-of-a-kind.”
Built for personalization, the FTR 1200 collections comprise more than
40 different parts and accessories and feature the following:
Tracker
The Tracker collection for the
FTR 1200 is most representative of the bike’s flat-track racing roots.
It’s the closest riders will come to a street-legal FTR750 race bike. A
shallow seat with a unique seat cowl, high-mount slip-on exhaust by
Akrapovič, and side-mounted number plates set the Tracker collection
apart.
Rally
The Rally collection draws
inspiration from lonely camp sites traversed on forgotten forest roads.
Riders will immediately notice sturdy aluminum wire wheels and a
high-mount Akrapovič exhaust on the Rally collection. A unique seat,
mudguards, tank covers, windscreen, Rally Handlebar by ProTaper, and a
high-mount license plate holder set the Rally collection apart. The
configuration allows the FTR 1200 to take full advantage of the bike’s
150 mm of suspension travel.
Sport
The Sport collection is a
no-nonsense assembly of carbon fiber parts that scream speed and
visually underscore the FTR 1200’s performance potential. The Sport
collection is the FTR 1200 distilled down to its athletic core,
outfitted with a low mount slip-on exhaust by Akrapovič, and a unique
carbon fiber front mudguard, tank cover and seat cowl.
Tour
The Tour collection provides a
heavy dose of utility, turning the FTR 1200 into a highway weapon for
smashing miles on longer journeys. With plenty of storage via a
water-resistant, roll-top side messenger bag, a tank bag, and a
windshield, the Tour collection keeps FTR 1200 riders comfortable on
longer-hauls.
“When developing the FTR 1200, it was important for us to create a
platform that offered dynamic, yet convenient, personalization and
customization opportunities,” said Ben Lindaman, Director –
International Product for Indian Motorcycle. “We’re extremely proud of
these accessories and collections, as they drastically change the design
of the bike – ultimately creating more styling options to satisfy a
wide-range of rider preferences.”
The FTR 1200 combines race-inspired design and nimble handling with an
upright riding position to create a commanding riding experience. A new
1203cc V-Twin engine with approximately 120 horsepower makes sure every
rider feels like a pro when they twist the throttle. The new platform is
a key component in Indian Motorcycle’s broader mission to expand its
global appeal and reach new riders.
The complete accessory lineup and four collections will be available in
dealers in spring 2019. Riders can learn more or build their FTR 1200 in
