Indian FTR 1200 S and Race Replica

-

The flat-tracker we have been waiting for has finally reached our shores. The FTR 1200 S is priced at Rs 14.99 lakh and the FTR 1200 S Race Replica at Rs 15.49 lakh, both prices ex-showroom. Pre-bookings are being accepted at Indian Motorcycle dealership­s across the country at Rs 2 lakh.

Visually, the FTRs look like they mean business on the street and also seem to be ready for a spot of fun on some surfaces with questionab­le traction. It had better be fun because the motorcycle­s draw inspiratio­n from the championsh­ip-winning FTR 750 race machine. Power comes from a liquid-cooled, 1,203-cc V-twin that produces twist to the tune of 115 Nm at 6,000 rpm. The US website further reveals that the motorcycle produces 120 PS.

On the electronic side, the motorcycle­s are equipped with a 4.3-inch colour touchscree­n console, Bosch stability control, six-axis inertial sensor, and riding modes as well. We will have to wait a while to see one on the road, though; maybe, until April 2019.
