Indian Motorcycle’s FTR1200 has been a godsend for fans of upright, sporty riding and a big brutish V-twin. It’s comfortable, quick, and packs modern flat-track style into a great chassis. With the help of Ex-BMW Motorrad designer Ola Stenegärd, Indian has started making tweaks to the FTR to make the same base bike appeal to different market segments. The resulting FTR1200 Rally is a style king that rides like a dream.
(Full Disclosure: Indian Motorcycle invited me to ride its new FTR1200 Rally in rainy cold Portland, as well as attend the 11th running of The One Show. It also put me up in a posh hotel and kept me full of coffee and food. I also have plenty of experience with the FTR1200S Race Replica, because Indian has loaned me one long-term.)
