I think this is exactly where harley is failing, something new, technological, but still with heritage.
Have you seen any of the new Harleys that have been released in the past five years? They are all new technology wrapped up in heritage.
Pan-America?
Pan America has been the only bike on the market to bring adaptive ride height to the market. A true innovation.
I agree, the Harley Davidson Bronx was a concept that never happen and that’s a bike that should’ve hit the showroom floor.
@jmackinjersey1 Harleys version of new tech is things everyone else has been using for the last 10 years or more tho let's be real nobody gets a harley for tech
I really like the base model FTR Sport. I just started getting into motorcycles and I keep coming back to Indian. I think they make hands down the best looking motorcycles. So classic yet insanely modern. The build quality looks top notch. I’m a huge fan of the Scout. I love the simplicity of all these bikes. All powerful and designed well. Their entire lineup is so good.
I’ve had 2 Scouts and now a Chief. I love Indian. They gave me an FTR to ride for two weeks. It was amazing. I will add this to the collection.
I currently have a Scout Bobber, but I have been looking at the FTR more and more lately. I will be adding one to the stable soon I think.
I heard one rip past me and caught up to him couples miles down the road. I couldn't believe how insanely good it sounded with an exhaust! I haven't shopped for a bike since I bought my 04 zx10r and this is what I want next!!
Love those Indian motorcycles!
They just keep getting better and better 👍
I've ridden my 2022 FTR standard for 2 years now. I did the full Toce exhaust system with Lloydz tune & this has been the best canyon carving bike I've ever had. ZERO issues, 1 recall on a coolant plug thingy that wasn't even an issue, & 2500 miles of canyon blasting fun later & all I can do is recommend this bike if you're wanting to get something like it. Mine doesn't have any of the screen tech/ride modes/etc. & you don't really need any of that stuff. But go for it if that's your thing or if you're making this your first bike & would be more comfortable with those riding modes, wheelie mitigation & traction control. I got the standard more for aesthetics than anything, the black & red is just classic & the old rectangular screen was an eyesore too. Also, knowing I was going to do the exhaust upgrades, paying for the Akropovic seemed like a pointless expense. Anyway, I've ordered the new Sport Chief now so I can go on some cross country trips, you CAN do it on an FTR but that doesn't necessarily mean you SHOULD lol. HMU if you have any questions, Indian is doing so many great things, can't recommend them enough.
Is the gas tank being very low capacity really as much of a issue as everyone says it is?
@@mrballpython2105 It would only be a minor issue on long trips where somehow you found yourself at a gas station without the next being within 150 miles & you weren't packing an aux tank. Not many ppl are doing long hauls on FTRs. The only thing I don't like about the tank is how long it takes to fill completely because of the strange shape.
how do you deal with the wind over 80mph. Or do you never go that fast.
@@anonjohnnyG The wind doesn't really affect me, the freeways here move around 80-90 mph depending on the day. I've only had 1 time where it was too windy to ride safely & that was with 30-40 mph winds with crazy gusts & I was on the Sport Chief which definitely catches more wind than the FTR.
I test rode a pre-owned 2019 FTR - R (carbon) here in Portugal last week. Was blown away at the power, the speed, and nimbleness, and agility. The 2023s come in next month. I'll be getting a new Carbon!
In my opinion, the Rally version is still the most interesting... a pity that it doesn't include the touch dashboard!
The sport model is beautiful with that white and red paint
So my take:
The Rally and the base models look really good. The colors and style are an improvement over last year's models. The S model knocks it out of the park, that is a very cool, sporty looking FTR, it rivals the Carbon version from last year as far as aesthetics. The rounded, Ride Command dash is a big improvement over the old rectangular dash from last year. Not only in terms of features but style as well. The Carbon though is lacking. It does have the new dash, but it doesn't look nearly as good as the Carbon from last year despite being the most expensive version in this line-up. The colors are bland, and it lacks the Akrapovic exhaust.
Were I made of money, I'd get the white sport version. Deck it out with the premium seat, carbon fiber parts including the headlight cowl, add the black Akrapovic exhaust, and add the Ohlins suspension and that would easily be the coolest FTR ever.
No chin spoiler on the carbon either.
WISH some Amercian company would make an INLINE FOUR. Oh.. wait- INDIAN DID. BRING IT BACK, I'll BUY ONE
I will be purchasing one of these in April 2025. This is exactly what I am looking for. Thank you!
I have never had a better bike then the FTR.
FTR !! From Indian motorcycle. The 2 0 2 3 Lineup looks great! I want one!
Love the new paint, super cool! My neighbor wants a Rally I'm going to talk him into it.
Very nice bikes…🤙
I was able to make a great deal at my local Indian dealer on a new deep maroon red left over 22 FTR-s🤙
Was originally looking at the Chief Dark Horse bikes but the FTR captured my heart. Trying to take it easy during the break-in period… 😅
Think there is a way to put that tachometer on the older bikes? I always thought that one should have gone on the ftr, better style. Just bought a 2019 too
The black and gold on this bike is incredible
Definitely you have to make an all blackened version
Agressive marketing. I feel bullied into buying one.
Ohhhh that sport though😍
I like original 2019 one the Best
That exhaust got a "something about Mary" hairdo going on
So you dropped the exhaust on the Carbon yet raised msrp??
Ohlins front and rear. Don't know if that was there last year, but it wasn't on the 2019 top line bike, it was Sachs suspension. Plus at least for the S&S high pipes, they're aftermarket.
I love these bikes! That Rally is soooo nice!
I wish you would make a new addition to this model making the tank sit higher giving it more of a sport or street-fighter look.
Everything looks amazing but that screen delay alone is a deal breaker
Needs a bigger fuel tank! I hope its in the works for future models
I thought about getting an Indian motorcycle by the age of 35+ when my lifestyle slowed down a bit. But now I'm feeling like purchasing an FTR Sport
Heureux propriétaire d une ftr carbone de 2022 moto extraordinaire
I have the 2023 rally and the only problem i have is the small gas tank. It only has about a 100 mile range. I have to go to the gas station every day just driving to work.
Love the Rally its beautiful
The only bike that makes me play with the idea of trading my beloved Ducati Monster in for.
I’m Team FTR Sport
The rally looks the best to me
The colors are too sporty for a beautiful retro inspired bike. Needs to be more Rally of old... New one isn't great 😭
Why the rear suspension is not at the center position?
Rally 👍
Quickshifter?
I’d love to get the carbon fiber one !
I wish the production bike looked like the prototype.
are these available in india?
Did they get rid of the spoked wheels on the rally???
Would be nice if you made one of these with a smaller engine for beginners.
A street version of the 750 would be awesome.
1200 is small.
@@hashtagmethree2381 Not for a beginners.
Just don’t wind her ! 😜
Why do I feel like a kid playing with my hot wheels just watching this video ? 😂
the one with a fairing, oh wait...
Thats how the bike should look out of the box.
Leaving Harley Davidson way behind.
I had the only 1 in my county
I need one...
New display looks grate. Good job INDIAN
With current situation price?????$$
FTR RALLY
Rally version with a belly pan and slip on mufflers,
The entire video: America 🦅🦅🦅 American 🦅🦅🦅
Inspired from arch motorcycles
Aufderhar Prairie
Another one to give you problems?!
I had a Chief 116, malfunction over and over, no solution.
Now, a FTR 100% carbon, same thing, no solution.
Is Indian ever going to make an Adventure Bike?
Harley Davidson = Dr Pepper
Indian= Red Bull !
Hi Indian engineers . the Indian i want is an inline twin longitudinally mounted 135 degree crankshaft over square bore to stroke ratio 858cc 2 to 1 con rod length to stroke ratio (big block) 6 speed gearbox , shaft drive , 18 inch front wheel 17 rear . long travel suspension . a comfortable seat for 2 . a machine that is fatigue free for 8 hour days in the saddle . looking forward to it . a sturdy and simple machine , easy to rebuild . and affordable
We r always sick and tired of price. I'm from India we can't afford one of it. Because of price . Fun fact we can afford a house instead of INDIAN MOTORCYCLES. 😔😔😔 We can only ride these motorcycles in our dreams.😖😖😖😖😖💔💔💔💔💔
Shut up cry baby.
I love the bike but cant stand that VoiceOver
The more you reduce the Indian logo, the more you japanize the bike.
Your bikes are awesome, but F**K, that AI generated voiceover (either that or fire your dialogue editor or get a better voice actor) is grating against my brain!!!
You r doing mistake , the original one was fantastic with flat rectangular screen , and big wheels , you r just cost cutting the product.
does this kind of shitty advertising really work ? This is a good bike that deserved better than that indian
sweet bike. god awful narration...
You should consider renaming your brand. The word doesn't strike an american made appeal to other countries.
indian is very known in europe, and was very succesful back in the day. and polaris/indian is very popular again in europe. so i dont know what you talk about. Indian motorcycles just took 43% of the european cruiser/tourer market. that tells you something isnt it
