Little Twinnie
08/27/24 9:57 PM

Well, I Kruz'd the garage space. Just came across an Indian FTR 1200. A 2022 with 2k miles on it. Figured I'd pop for a 2nd hand bike till Mother Tea rolls out the next big honker. If not, I have this little squirt to lop around on. Going to pick it up tomorrow.

Didn't even ride it. Lit it off on the dealer floor, sounded good, took a chance on something different. Pretty much a bulletproof bike with zero problems. Some have 100k miles on some so they sort of can hold their own. As far as percentage wise, the Indian has something like 13-17% failure rate as opposed to the HD line with 26% or something like that. Sort of built better with less problems.

Wanted that HD sound. Even sounds better than the HD big twins. Going to keep it stock and ride the piss out of it. Figured time is short, why not have a little fun while the heart is still beating. Gave them an offer and they took it.

More like a little puppy with some punch to it. Says 120hp and 80 some torque. Will have a few photos tomorrow.

Mr Rook I think the FTR refers to Flat Track Replica. I think the biggest complaint is throttle twichiness and the one I rode was barely livable BUT they have cruise !!!

That's a cool looking bike and even cooler because it's an Indian. It's a well recognized brand on something they're not recognized for. I'd like to see that one with matte black engine covers and exhaust. What color did you get Hub?.

Rook, I'll use another camera and load it on the hard drive. Give me a day or two.
