Not your Father's Indian

I think Harley Davidson missed this boat...........and that might not be a good thing for them at all.

Those sure look good. Seems the R nine T sells well, these should too.

Not in my future, but I like what I see.

Yeah same here, not needed but sure looks like a smile maker!

I'm sorry, but those things are butt ugly. I can't get used to the new ugly bikes with no back fender and a little add on tail light somewhere. I can just see your significant other sliding off the seat onto the tire . I have two pics of me jumping two look alike bikes in the 60's. Guess my college roommate was way ahead of time. If I get time maybe I will post em.

Has happened.

This is a shortened version of the vid, bad but not as bad as the uncut one out there. That had to hurt and I'm sure it left a mark!

^ Now that's a pretty good Captain Virgil Hilts impression right there, Doug! ^

I'm not totally in love with the styling, but its a good price point for what you get . Per the Motorcycle Daily article ...

" The FTR 1200 will be available in both a standard and a 1200S model priced at $12,999 and $14,999, respectively, with availability at dealers next spring."

" In addition to the nicer instrument panel, the upgraded model reportedly gets much more tech, including ABS, ride modes and “lean angle-sensitive traction and stability control."

Of course how it actually rides is the real test.

Cool pics, but those "goggles" look more like Ray Bans...

We prototyped that design in the late 80's while I was working there.

BTW Erik spells his name with a k.
