I have a 2022 ftr1200 rally. Absolutely love the bike. Cost $18,000 otd with extended warranty, little spensive but I think it's the coolest bike out right now. I look forward to upgrading it over the years. I will keep this bike forever along side my Jeep TJ
I really like the new look of the mirrors as well as the license plate relocation kit. It's funny how a few simple changes completely alter the style of this bike.
I rode the FTR and was absolutely blown away by it. There were a couple of things I would like different and would hope that Indian comes out with a new model A little sportier with a small fairing and 17" wheels plus a slightly larger fuel tank. It is a fabulous bike .
To chace grips, try use pressured air to help. It works same as like an oil on your engine bearings. It lubrigates and make grips to flow over handle bar. After try that one, you will never ever use any other method.
pretty much different category of bikes (although, I don't know much about the RNT)... Speed twin is all about smoother road riding... the FTR is a throw anything at it type of bike!
The S+S high mount pipes look and sound much better and make it look like the prototype Indian showed in pre-production. It also eliminates that pesky catalytic converter.
Right side is beautiful. Left side rear terrible. Gotta chop off that plate holder. Under seat maybe cleanest approach. Wiring mods needed for that. I’ll build a kit and let you know it turns out.
Take off stock mudguard and replace with rear mudguard from indian genuine accessories and paint with black color, put the license on the left side off rear tire, put rear turn signal beside stop lamp, change exhaust with one pipe s&s exhaust system and take off the catalyst, install carbon tank cover on it, install handguard, don't change that factory classic mirror, and you ready to go
Hmmm, not much for the ftr mods 😒 Do they have memory foam gel seats, riser bars, does a pro-taper steering dampener work on this, license delete or reposition, different mud guards, round displays or move display up, or crash pegs/bars go where or saddle bags would work well on this bike or different type of wind shields work on this. I’m new to cycling but I need to know if what you sell will fit on this bike.
Does anyone know when they are going to announce the winner of this Indian motorcycle? I have an Aprilia Mana 850 the gas tank is under the sit ...for some strange reason, the Indian Motorcycle reminds me of my bike, which I love very much.. it would be awesome to own this machine.
The contest is now closed, but you can see the winners here: rvz.la/2Wsy5dm For parts similar to those featured in this video, check out our Indian FTR 1200S Parts Collection page: rvz.la/2wQNU2U
Standing on the pegs on an FTR1200 is not really do-able. Not for me anyway and not with the stock exhaust. I wear size 11 shoes and if I try to stand on the pegs with the balls of my feet, my heel hits the exhaust. Really uncomfortable feeling.
Whats the point? To me it seems like you showed us what the actual bike was supposed to be like, sold by indian from factory. Why spend 14k on a bike, and than add bunch of modifications from the same manufacturer?
About modding: if i remove my turnsignals and swap them out for bar-end-signals i know i will need to drill into the handlebars. But how do i seal the holes where they originally were? On a kawasaki vulcan s for example.
does anyone know where to buy the exhaust extensions, and fender/licenses plate mount/ rear light mounting hardware?basically everything added after 5:03. couldn't find it on RevZilla
@ZLA Lemmy Bullshit. Ride between the other vehicles and if you hit one, you can fold it back out. Nobody is going to constantly fold their mirrors to split lanes, it's an invitation to disaster.
I can patiently get enough gas in the tank for 136 miles range. This tank design gives false full impression. It will take more gas 4 or 5 more top offs.
@@larrynorsworthy8582 I'm not sure exactly what you mean. It will take more top offs? If you're talkin about squeezing in more than past the normal fill line. That will cause problems in the future with the charcoal canister and then the charcoal getting back into the fuel filter and injectors.
@@steveh7108 it seems to be slower for the gas to get to the low spots when almost full. When completely full to recommended fill space, there is still ample air space.
@@larrynorsworthy8582 thanks for clarifying. 136 miles to a tank is not horrible but it is certainly not good either. It is an easy problem to fix and I wish they would simply have a bigger tank. Even if just as an option.
Hey Lem and Revzilla team, i would like to see a video like this done with the Harley Street Rod? Not too many people have customized one and i am struggling to figure out a way to change mine. I also noticed that Lemmy really like the bike which made me get one.
@@MrJeepmarine Might depend to some extent on the state. There are different rules in different states. If you live in just the wrong state and the contest is in the wrong state, you might have to pay taxes in both. In the same way that between certain states, you might be considered a full time resident in more than one state. US tax law is not entirely straightforward.
I love the red trellis frame that transitions into the shock spring and swing arm. It splits the bike in a pleasing way to the eye.

Turning wrenches with friends, good fun indeed! Thanks for the content fellas
Been a while since I checked in on RevZilla. Is it just me, or does it look like Lem lost a TON of weight? Great video as per usual.
Hes been shedding those pounds for real! Good effort Lem! Well done!
Arphalia he did that’s crazy
👍
TH-cam recommends the day after the sweepstakes is over...thanks
😂
I hope you do a comparison between INDIAN FTR vs TRIUMPH SPEED TWIN vs BMW RNT
Omg this needs more likes!!!! The Indian is quite pricy compared to the speed twin though
You can’t compare this with any bike it’s in its own class
pretty much different category of bikes (although, I don't know much about the RNT)... Speed twin is all about smoother road riding... the FTR is a throw anything at it type of bike!

Splendid job. Bravo. And the heights is still a concern. What a beautiful machine.
Perfect first bike to win and own!!
Indian motorcycles 🤟🏻💯!
I've never paid much attention to Indian before, just wasn't into cruisers and baggers. Then this thing came out...
Right side is beautiful. Left side rear terrible.
Gotta chop off that plate holder.
Under seat maybe cleanest approach.
Wiring mods needed for that.
I’ll build a kit and let you know it turns out.
Going to change my standard foot pegs ,find then slippy when wet ! The rally ones look the biz ,but retail at around £200!!!!!
Iam in love with the music of Indian FTR 1200s engine😍😍😍
YES! I love your mods videos guys, keep em' coming!
A narrow parking spot in garge you added 6 and a half inches on each side with the mirrors.
Take off stock mudguard and replace with rear mudguard from indian genuine accessories and paint with black color, put the license on the left side off rear tire, put rear turn signal beside stop lamp, change exhaust with one pipe s&s exhaust system and take off the catalyst, install carbon tank cover on it, install handguard, don't change that factory classic mirror, and you ready to go
Get better soon Lemmy!!
Oh boy have I been waiting for this
The bike is awesome. Just awesome!
Awesome bike. Please tell me what blanking plugs y'all used on the mirrors ?
This bike is BADASS!!

The winner will be drawn and announced in just a couple weeks. -DrewZilla
Lemmy, y'all have my shipping address on file. As a kind gesture for the FTR win, I can pick up freight cost!
I love mine and it’s a monster bike!!
Great looking bike . Cool video . Have you lost weight mate? Looking good
A small part of me believes I have a chance at this bike. Great video Lem!
Please keep all the original parts in a box for me when I win this beast :) i want em'!
Did you win it? Asking 1year later

RevZilla which akropovic exhaust is that
RevZilla I’m entered to win!!!!! Let’s Go!!!! I’d give my left 🥜 for this bike! 😂
Hope we can join the raffle - Philippines
Awh you should've done a high pipe exhaust like the prototype model. No brainer in my book
My goodness, that looks so much better. what's an estimated $$ for these changes?
Fingers crossed.
You still have the catalyt converter which sucks on the bike with either slip on.
I would like to see some hand guards and a skid plate.
I’m still waiting for them to deliver this to me! I can pick it up....
Now that's a beauty 😍
Great bike, glad you're sharing!
Do me a favor, Lem... Don''t drop my bike... :-D
Lane splitter mirrors... that made lane splitting harder
3:50 other than the aesthetics, does these clear ones glow brighter?
Absolutely stunning motorcycle! 👍🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Man I hope I get it. If i do then itll be my first bike ever.
I’m just assuming I’m going to win the grand prize because I wasn’t picked for any of the other prizes 🤷♂️
This has nothing to do with the bike, but did Lemmy lose weight? I feel like he lost weight.
Haha I thought the same thing.
OMG the looks n the mods r jus awesome... so tempting..
whats it like being the Dallas Cowboys Running back?
Did the footpegs give you trouble not keeping the spring in the cavity?
Comeon dude, send it to me already!!!!! Im dying
Damn I want that bike! I entered already.
Lemmy, why no tail-tidy? I'd like one fitted before you present it to me! :-D
"Before one of YOU lay 'er down!"
Great Video I want one 😢
Man I would love! LOVE to win this beautiful bike!

Do you guys have those blanking plugs for the mirrors available for sale?
Any electrical
supply has them
Or turn them upside down
I AM HAVING 2ND THOUGHTS on Indian As my FIRST STARTER !
Find a used FZ07 and get the FTR after 5-6 months!
I'll stick to chopping up a scout instead
Dayum I really want this bike though
About modding: if i remove my turnsignals and swap them out for bar-end-signals i know i will need to drill into the handlebars. But how do i seal the holes where they originally were? On a kawasaki vulcan s for example.
What's the advantage of the high mount exhaust as opposed to the stock mounting location for this bike?
It's mostly an aesthetic preference. -DrewZilla
What about lowering the seat height for shorter riders ?
Hi, I would like buy Indian FTR 1200 Handlebar Waffle Grips by ProTaper but impossible in Belgium.... How is it possible ???!
I guess you would have to import them from another country where they are available. -DrewZilla
Bro said buck wild only puts a muffler on
Whoa he lost weight.
dont like the mirrors down low you have to work to hard to see them
does anyone know where to buy the exhaust extensions, and fender/licenses plate mount/ rear light mounting hardware?basically everything added after 5:03. couldn't find it on RevZilla
IS that game foot not up to snuff yet?
@ZLA Lemmy Looks like you've kicked some weight off, too. Hopefully you will have full recovery from whatever happened to your foot!
Hope your including the stock items like the seat/exhaust to the winner of the bike..
End the drawing because I'm naming myself the winner
Too late...I got dibbs!
John Garrison lol.
Uh I'm already shipping myself in a box to revzilla so I can ride the bike out of the warehouse.
Kind of funny calling bar end mirrors "Lane Splitters".
phlodel yeah, they stick out further.
@ZLA Lemmy So, it's OK if they mark up other vehicles?
@ZLA Lemmy Bullshit.
Ride between the other vehicles and if you hit one, you can fold it back out. Nobody is going to constantly fold their mirrors to split lanes, it's an invitation to disaster.
Lem, that leg still isn't 100%, eh?
Test road this bike and by the end of the demo my knees were aching and butt was sore. I'm 6ft tall
thruxton or ftr?? Help me out
Please do one for the T100 Triumph (LC)
Does anyone know where to get the mirror plugs? Part#? Size?
Any electrical supply has them or turn them upside down.
If i win, i would be so happy. Problem is, ill be on deployment by that time lol.
How did you lower it?
When is somebody going to address the low capacity fuel tank?

Only available to US riders :(
Sweetness. Life’s short just buy the dam bike,.
Thumbs Up
I live in Portugal. Europe can also sign up?
The contest is limited to residents of the United States. -DrewZilla
For all the hype the media plugs this bike with, I've still yet to see on in real life. Who's buying these expensive naked bikes?
I just bought a 19 model with 450 miles on from the dealership, demo and exhibit bike. Financing 84 months $200 a month. Insurance $204 annual cost.
@@larrynorsworthy8582 a 7 year loan for a "middle weight" bike... kinda crazy
