Have you ever owned this bike? Do you agree with my verdict? Would you buy it again? Comment Below if you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer))
@@vladyslife6211 i don't feel I'm missing all that much even though there's 40hp less ( apparently) but the torque, handling and everything else I like about the FTR makes up for it plus it just feels such good quality, so far so good
My wife bought me a 2019 ftr1200s when they first came out and I love it , I rode from Maryland to Arizona and back the only problem I had was the seat, my ass was killing me but I picked up an airhawk seat pad and help out a lot, I had Ryan Lloyd remapped my ECU and it runs great no cold start issues, the bike is just so much fun to ride I’m keeping this one
Well statement buddy! The bike is amazing I have one with TOCE slip on and PV3 device with a little other mods, and it's fire👌🔥Thanks for the proper feedback🤘🏻
I consider this a naked. I have a 23' Buell 1190Rx & 13 EBR 1190 Rs. Indian does my service for both. I spend a lot of time there looking at the FTR's. I really like the built in GPS option, too. Id possibly trade my 06' xb12 in for the FTR. Very sharp design.
Looks like a good bike to have some fun on as a transition from beginner to intermediate rider. But your next bike you should consider the Ducati Diavel 1260s or the new V4 if you can afford it. Or if you are looking for more joy riding the Kawasaki Z1000 would be some serious fun!
@@vladyslife6211 Agreed it has a hefty price tag. I made the mistake (or fortunate opportunity?) of testing riding the V4 and the proceeded to buy it. It is a beast of a bike and I love it! The z1000 might just be on my list to add next to it in the garage tho!
Nah it's not for intermediate rider either, it's an unpredictable dangerous bike if you don't have the control specially the lunch original version with the 19 inch flat track wheels
@@thiagomoreira1557 I mean, you’re entitled to that opinion. I come from the sport bike world and started on a Honda 600 F4. All about learning throttle control and riding at your ability level more than anything else. But I still think based on the bike’s capabilities vs all the other bikes on the market this sits firmly in an intermediate class. A CBR600rr is faster, but also not apple to apple comp since it’s a sport bike. The CBR is a beginner to intermediate level bike.
