FTR1200S

1203cc V-twin 120bhp and 85ftlb 221kg (S – 222kg) (kerb) £11,899 / £12,999 Indian’s all-new FTR is set to stick a cat amongst the lazy pigeons. With cute flat-track styling, beautiful design detail and build quality and performance and spec to boot, it’s well worth a test ride if you’re looking for a large-capacity naked. Available in two spec models (with a huge array of accessory options for further personalisation) the sportier and more heavily spec’d S machine would be our choice.

With a fully-adjustable ZF 43mm inverted fork, and a fully adjustable monoshock, stylish 19/18in cast aluminium wheels shod with special new track inspired Dunlop DT3-R tyres, a neat steel trellis frame and swingarm; it’s got plenty going for the chassis. There are plenty of gadgets, too. The S boasts an intuitive 4.3in full TFT dash developed in-house, which offers multiple screen modes, three rider modes (Sport, Standard, Rain), traction control and antiwheelie settings, and switchable ABS. It’s Bluetooth ready, so you can connect and control your phone, music and other devices through the dash, too.

Go on, be a brave little Indian, and stand out from the crowd in 2019.
