Indian Motorcycle has launched the FTR 1200 S and FTR 1200 S Race Replica in India. The FTR platform proudly breaks new ground and answers the call of enthusiasts in India anxiously awaiting its debut. Indian Motorcycle also tied up with Orix India for leasing luxury bikes to bike enthusiasts. The Indian FTR 1200 S and FTR 1200 S Race Replica are priced at INR 15,99,000 and INR 17,99,000 (Ex-Showroom), respectively.
The new FTR 1200 S and FTR 1200 S Race Replica take designing and styling cues from the championship-winning FTR 750 race bike. The platform delivers an American motorcycle with a flat tracker style and performance of a powerfully new liquid-cooled 1203cc V-twin engine to back it up.
On the occasion of the new FTR 1200 S and FTR 1200 S Race Replica launch, Mr Pankaj Dubey, Managing Director and Country Head, Polaris India Pvt. Ltd., said “Our vision from the beginning was to be more than a traditional American V-twin brand. We continually seek to broaden Indian Motorcycle’s reach to a wider range of riders, and FTR represents a significant step forward in that strategy. With the launch of FTR™ 1200 S and FTR™ 1200 S Race Replica we now have a stylish motorcycle which has the DNA of flat track racing and is designed for the street. Its iconic looks, technological innovations, is quite a head-turner among bike enthusiasts. The new platform is a key component in the company’s broader mission to expand its global appeal and reach among new riders. Indian Motorcycle® with the launch of new FTR™ 1200 S and FTR™ 1200 S Race Replica brings you an idea of what the future is going to be like in the most sought after touring segment for the bike enthusiast. The new platform underwent extensive development and testing to ensure it meets Indian Motorcycle’s high-quality standards and performs at the highest levels. This is an extremely exciting platform for us, and after investing such a significant amount of time, expertise and energy in the design process, it’s an incredible feeling to finally show these motorcycles. We have partnered with Orix India making it possible for all bike enthusiasts who could not own an Indian bike earlier, to now have an opportunity to easily lease the bike through Orix India.”
Commenting on the launch, Mr Sandeep Gambhir, MD & CEO of ORIX India said, "ORIX is India’s largest shared mobility solution provider with B2B Car Rental, Car Leasing Company and B2B Employee Transportation provider across all major locations. With this industry-first initiative, ORIX aims to provide today’s motorcycle enthusiasts with the flexibility to fulfil their aspirations at a fraction of cost. It has always been ORIX’s endeavour to take customer satisfaction and experience to the next level, and in partnership with Indian Motorcycles, we hope to help our customers achieve their childhood dreams of owning their favourite superbikes in the most economical and enjoyable way.”
Design & Specifications
The new FTR series is engineered with the latest technology for reliable performance. Sporting a powerful new liquid-cooled 1203cc V-twin engine with approximately 123 Horsepower & 120 Nm Peak Torque ensures a progressive, predictable power delivery with loads of low-end punch and flexibility. The FTR series is fast, agile and thrilling with a sporty, upright riding position and nimble handling, made for riders who command control on the road.
In addition to the design, the FTR series is built around a trellis frame with a sporty riding position, features an inverted front suspension with radially mounted dual Brembo brakes for exceptional control and stopping power. The fuel tank is strategically located under the seat for a lower centre of gravity and more centralized weight distribution. Similar to the FTR750 race bike, the airbox is positioned directly above the engine to optimize airflow and maximize power. The Bike features a similar rear suspension and swingarm design as the FTR750 to not only provide a race bike look, but also ensure maximum grip with a compliant ride. Newly-developed Dunlop street tyres with flat track-inspired tread, a chain final drive, and ProTaper flat tracker aluminium handlebars complete the race bike look.
The FTR series is equipped with a 4.3-inch customizable Ride Command LCD touch screen with Bluetooth for easy mobile device pairing support which can also be operated with the gloves on. This will help the rider to customize the drivability even while riding the bike. The ride command offers to select Three Ride Modes (Sport, Standard, Rain) with unique throttle response and traction control intervention levels, Lean-angle sensitive stability control, ABS, traction control, and wheelie mitigation control for improved confidence and control.
The FTR series features full LED lighting, including a new headlight that provides an unmistakable face for the platform, a fast-charge USB port to easily charge mobile devices, anti-lock brakes (ABS) and cruise control for a comfortable ride.
Warranty
An inclination towards experiencing adventure brings along with it a sense of responsibility towards maintaining one’s bike and for that Indian Motorcycle offers RSA (Road Side Assistance) & EW (Extended Warranty) for the FTR series. The RSA scheme offers 2 years coverage of the bike and the EW scheme is an extension of 2 years warranty after the standard warranty (for 2 years unlimited Kms) period expires. Both the schemes can be purchased directly through the authorized Indian Motorcycle dealership.
