@@yammienoob When the Indian FTR750 flat tracker was first released to qualified buyers in 2017 - it was $50,000.
Actually $49,900 with a $5,000 deposit. "Approved Race Teams" got a discount to $44,900.
And the FTR750 has a hand built Swiss dohc pure race motor.
So $92K seems pretty steep for a hot-rodded street bike.😁
Most of these will be bought by dealers in any case.
Be interesting to see if HD matches this.
Whatever you think of race baggers - it's good for American motorcycle racing.
What is really going to shake things up is if the Europeans and Japanese decide to participate.
Ducati Diavel V4 bagger! Triumph Rocket 3 bagger! LOL
Crazier than the price of this bike is the fact that they will sell all of them that are made!
Yupp
So who wants to race at Road Atlanta on this April 21-23? Fun watch as always!
As an Indian bagger rider, these bikes are already hard enough to get replacement parts after a year. Good luck to the Chad that can afford this.
Hello, I'm Chad, and I can't afford it 😂. Why are parts for the Challenger hard to get?
I dont have one of their baggers but instead a Scout Rogue. Absolutely zero issues with parts. What are u struggling to find?
It's only $72000 if you don't get the stereo!
When you think what it would cost to take a stock challenger to a full race bike its not really priced bad.
I think this is the greatest move an american motorcycle company has made in a really long time. Indian seems to have a vision that H-D has never had. When indian started back up I thought it would be a bit of a joke. Looks like I was wrong. I like the influence Indian has has had on the American market
Indian is run by crazy people, and I mean that as an absolute compliment. Admittedly I'm an immigrant to North America, but Harley just doesn't make a single bike thats compelling to me. But Indian really seem to have an ethos of building models because they can, not solely because they fit their image. The FTR is one Id have, but I love that this bike exists.
They also race pick-up trucks, semis, and lawn mowers so I guess this isn't surprising. Next up for racing: trike conversions.
The bagger series was cool last year at road America. Not what I went to watch but cool nonetheless. What I hate about it is harley bros pointing at it and pretending their stage 2 road bike is just as fast and can smoke any "rice burner" like bro you got over 50k into a bike that my 10k naked will outpace everywhere. Calm down man harley makes a good cruiser enjoy it for what it is
My 1982 GPZ750 R1 actually came stock with hand ported head, they weren't huge race style ports but they did get hand port work stock from the factory...
Just got my first bike a 2005 CBR600RR with 7k miles. The guy maintained it well as far as the basics. Right now with a new side stand /wiring harness for my comfort/ and some fairings I got a flawless bike. Paid 3k nd I almost financed a R7 w/ 4k down literally the day b4. I'm glad I didn't the RR is crazy 😂😂😂 taking it slow ofc but MSF helped a lot I test drove it and rode it home....
'Track day"
-yammie every 5 seconds
Not big on baggers. But always up for a new yammie video!!
If ever I went back to racing that's what I'd want. A hot rodded camper or school bus with magnesium wheels
I live in Austin....do please do a darn ride and review of my 21' Concours 14 to help get more folks into more spirited touring style riding!!!
Wow, if Disco came back as a motorcycle. It's very tacky, I'm sure I'll see some of these rolling around Hollywood, probably spot it from 5 blocks away lol. Thanks 4 posting this!
It's not road legal or even remotely CA compliant. So doubt that liberal dump will have any on the road most likely in some rich dudes garage collecting dust.
I'm ready to take this bike on with my Super Cub but I might have to unleash all 9 horses
When you consider all the work done to it, the price isnt that outrageous. My question is why racing baggers?
Right? 🤣 What's next? Minivan racing?
Cause MERICA
Walmart Beetus mobile racing!
if something moves, people will race it lmao
A serious answer. Racing is only marketing. Baggers are a market. Very similar to rally car racing in that it needs to be a production line model with sales figures to back it up to even enter the field (say 500 sold). There are limits to the modification (the engine casing has to be factory built, the panels must maintain the design shape). People love to see a version of what they own winning races man. Australia has a series called V8 Supercars, same concept. The initial objective is to advertise the vehicle, secondly sponsors are there to support the teams.
must take a shot each time "bagger" is said in video!
You know someone is going to buy one of these and make all the necessary upgrades to get it street legal.
And the Pan America is racing in the Hooligans class in MotoAmerica.
Ok course they and they should race them.
They are becoming more a normal race but anyway.
You should also cover the Suzuki bandit challenge in the UK.
Something amazing what they are doing with the support of Suzuki.
For 92k it better drive itself straight to somebody else’s wallet
Maybe the front fender won't fall apart.
Indian race bagger with mission chips as the sponsor... heh. nice
The race baggers go up to about 180 on the straightaways. There are quite a few people out there who will drop this kind of money for a motorcycle, same sort of people who buy lamborghini's. These aren't your grandpa's bagger's. I find the races to be very entertaining as well as bringing in valuable racing technology to the bagger crowd. Wish they'd have a seperate Bagger race on the Isle of Man. Think of it...600 lb bikes flying down a street doing up to 180, having to brake hard to make the turn to avoid slaming into a stone wall or tree.
I love the why the eff not energy of these things. The sort let's do it just to see what happens mindset.
That’s literally a harbor freight stand. 😆🤟🏼
It’s a great series to watch!
I hope they let some of the motorcycle publications ride these bad boys.
Papa yams
please check out the street squidding the user "Fat and Furious" has here on youtube
seriously impressive squidliness - I saw him tap over 180 on his 'late for an appointment' video
They saw your most expensive motorcycles video last week and got upset HD beat them out.
everone will still go for the street glide 😂
People spend millions of dollars for cars. Don't see what is so crazy about a race ready motorcycle.
I'll take one without the giant front fairing a medium-sized windscreen and neutral pegs. If I had 100 Grand just to blow of course.
looking forward to king of the ADVs
The Dakar Race is pretty awesome!
I like how it doesn’t have Indian written all over it
I'm happy riding my 2118 USD Bajaj Pulsar NS200 and it's Indian... 😊
what?
Lmao 😂😂😂😂😅
Hey Yammie are you going to get One has a Give Away??
I think it's pretty damn cool, but the price tag is a big ooof.
If they don't fill the bags with a weekends essentials while racing then the whole sport is just a con.
I want to see them open up the bags and have some chinos, deck shoes a wash bag.
Spanking 600’s on the morning, travelling across the country by night
Cool bike! How much does it cost?
idk, it wasn't even mentioned once in the video
**signs in ASL**
If it's not street legal then it is not a homologation model, it's a race replica.
That’s like Harley Davidson prices, they must’ve lost their fucking minds.
Are there any other manufactures in that category like sport tours from BMW as an example, that ostensibly could race in that series?
I'd hope so (but I'm pretty sure they have in the rules specifying it's only HD and Indian). The Kawasaki Ninja H2 SX SE is a touring bike that comes stock with hard cases and a large fairing so that counts as a bagger right?
@@3212009a yeah that’s what I was thinking too. But also those bikes you mentioned would give them a run for their money. Do you think they would be faster than the US bikes and if so is that why there not allowed?
If someone is out to win in that style of racing maybe but that Big plate on the bottom gets me worried? May cost another 100k to keep it going for one season 😢
Doing a Ducati, flood the grid with Indian Baggers.
oufff for that price I rather get an H2 and fully build it lol
that's the second race bike that Indian has released... they all sell... and you can't build it for any less
Gixxerbrah vs yammie bagger race!!!!! Who's is really the king
not regretting after the longest trip on a xv250 because i paid just $3000 for it.
Again, when is Indian gonna go real racing with the likes of WSBK, instead of playing patty cakes with HD?
This sounds just like the what they did with the FTR, 750 the real race bike, not the street bike. They went out did some real research and engineering, then built the best 750 flat track race bike since the Honda 750 track bike (yeah, the one that Harley got the AMA to restrict because it was kicking the crap our of them, so Honda pulled the plug). Indian went out in their first year and decimated the competition. I have a feeling they did pretty much the same thing here. And 92k is not a lot of money for a real race bike. This is not some luxury exotic street bike, when Indian builds a race bike it is just that, and they are deadly serious. People should not confuse this with something they can buy and go out on the road.
Needs a turbo!
LMAO Why does it look like a Power Rangers bike? And what do they keep in the bags?
Love it!
It's not a bad price it you want to go bagger racing. It's a race bike not a Street bike. Much cheaper then buying a stock bike and converting it.
Hello there, yammy!
I had a question... how much heat do 1000cc sports bikes and 1100 to 1200 V4 engines emit?
Is it uncomfortable? I never had bikes, and i have no experience either with bikes, so please explain the engine heat situation. Thanks!
Liquid cooled bikes do not radiate alot of heat onto the rider. It will be noticeable, but you're never going to feel a hot burning sensation like a big air cooled twin. The warmest 1000cc+ sport bike I've found was a gsxr 1000 that quickly surrounded me in a pleasant warmth after reaching operating temp, indoors.
@@zeepro_tv Thanks for the reply!
If I could get one I would just to shit on people at NC bike🤣🤣
Cover the Buell super cruiser man
Yam am I winning the v4s? (Say yes)
Yeah your just going to Park it and Stare at it
Welcome to racing, why are you shocked?
U can almost get a superleggera with that price
Indian is not messing around and dropping off bikes at powamoto for review cuz we ain't 🤓 nerds like yam
I don’t get why everyone would need bags on a track only bike
if you drop that bike your screwed.
A 2023 HD CVO Road glide is $77,000 in Canada and it is not a race bike.
Do you see the problem here?
And that is not the most expensive HD.
American motorcycle manufacturers have lost their minds.
And it shows in their crapy sales numbers.
First thing I would do is take them bags and plastics off
That becouse you said the indians aren't as expensive as harley😂😂😂
Racing baggers should exist because they shouldn't.
Isn’t that race only and not for the streets? I’am sure Harley’s race bike is expensive too.
You have to have race creditials to own one
But how much does it cost tho?
NINEDEEE TOO TOUUSAND DOLL HAIRS.....
They want to beat Harley, this is a base model race bike, cannot be street, the reason Indian exists is to take market share from Harley. It’s not bad for anyone, Harley’s factory team is volunteering, Harley needs to step up, win on Sunday sell on Monday? Lots of victory owners got screwed by Polaris, Indian will force Harley to build a better machine, FYI you can buy all the Harley race parts.
I hope the Japanese and Germans come out to play with their cruisers
Meh....pass. Good luck getting parts for it!
The fact they took away the sweeping fenders I think is dumb as shit because thats... sorta the trademark of an indian
Oooooooooft!
Probably will attract the same boomer buyers who get a Camaro SS or the biggest Mustang possible to brag about american HP and then drive on sunday rides at speed limit.
Why would you buy a bike for $92 k when an MT09 could blow off one of these, tell em they're dreaming. You have a wife!!! what's his name.
Everybody lost ther fkn minds also the 2nd hand market.
just bought a 02 Honda VTX 1800 $90,000 dollars cheaper lol
🤯🤯
Shit Yeah with that price
They Are Fast 😂
Go build one, see what it costs.
92K No thanks
How much hp?
Honda literally sells a titanium valved and springed, ported head, full Yoshi exhaust, custom aftermarket wheels, aftermarket race clutched, factory spec bike for $12.5k..... 😅🤣🤏
Why would it be cheap?
Nice
With the way manufacturers are pricing these days I’m not surprised. I mean Ducati has a $100k street bike 😅
I'd take a $100K Duck over a $92K Indian a thousand times out of a thousand!!
True, but at least for Ducati, it's basically a race bike they shove some lights into since they have to technically sell it for it to be eligible to race in wsbk, so I wouldn't really call it a street bike lol. A better name would be minimum requirements bike.
Yeah no bike is worth that
what does homologated mean?
It means that these motorcycles are built to comply with the regulations and rules set by Moto America for their King of the Baggers races. That's why Yammie stated that if you buy one of these Challengers and you show up to a race, the bike already complies with the regulations, it will pass the inspection by the race stewards and you can race it if you want. That's also why they're track-only bikes.
@@wolfrikvonschwarzblut3921 then what is the difference between a bike that is actually used in races and the homologated version of that bike sold to enthusiasts? Why not just call it the race bike?
Hi yamm
Why do you have such an aversion to cruisers and baggers ? You're always harping on about them and the people that ride them.
hi bro love your videos
bwm boys
Ok indian sold every one of the 750 flat trackers at 50 g all 150 of them and totally dominate that now ok Yamaha is now catching up .they want to dominate this also and Indian aka will do anything to bury Harley .this will also force Harley to build a high po pan am based bager
Horribly ugly and insanely expensive, won't sell
