@Kven36 Год назад

I picked up a base model FTR almost 2yrs ago for $9400 out the door with 32mi on the odometer. I’ve owned 23 motorcycles and have ridden well over 300 in My life, from dirt bikes to super sport/sport standard to big cruisers, and the FTR has been My absolute favorite. Like you mentioned, it’s the odd quirkiness of the handling, and the brute force of that low/midrange torque that just thrills and causes big grins. It’s just so damn much fun.

I've had a FTR 1200 S (Race Replica) for 2 years now. Best upgrades were going to Continental Road Attack 3's (love the look of the Dunlop DT3-Rs, but they suck for handling), and putting an aftermarket tune on it to match the de-cat mod. I went with the Fuel Moto tune, but based on what I've read in the owners forums, the Lloyds Motorworks tune option is ever so slightly better.

@LARGO125 2 года назад

The FTR is a "move the soul" type of bike. Yes, there are faster bikes, yeah there are better handling bikes, there aren't many bikes that have the premium finish of the FTR, but they are out there. The FTR is for the person who's soul is moved by the combination of things it does very well. You either get it, or you don't. If I was gonna compare it to any bike out there that has that same feel, it would be the Triumph Scrambler 1200, the Ducati desert sled, or the KTM SMCR.

@peterwilson8039 2 года назад

I failed the course in college where they taught us how to evaluated intangibles, but I do know how to count. I wouldn't even get the XSR-900. I'd get the MT-09, except frankly it's too much bike for me. I have another weakness when it comes to impulse control.

First of all...nice vid! I drove a FTR last year and it was really a fun bike ,...then I drove a MT09 ...design wise not my cup of tea...but man....the triple makes me smile all day long! I would rather stick to the triple...next week I think I will get a XSR 900 Abarth. What I think is also a point to go against the FTR is the price...as mentioned in the vid...12000 € here in EU i think it is worth it, but not 15 K in the entry level / black edition with a sporty exhaust. On top the bike I drove was quit new but had already rusted screws....hmmm not at this price point....as I said the FTR is really a lot of fun but the triple is just something!

@mikebruce17 2 года назад

@@SquarewhiteTV Calling is a dumb comparison might be a little short sighted. The FTR and Sportster S are likely to be on the short list for prospective buyers of American bikes who aren't looking for the traditional cruiser. These two bikes have a similar look from the outside, similar power and drivetrain, and price. Maybe the differences come to the front as they are compared. There are plenty of similarities and differences between the two. Compare 'em!!!

@SquarewhiteTV 2 года назад

@@mikebruce17 I think the Sportster S has more in common with the Indian Scout Bobber than the FTR, from the fat tires to the mid controls to the slammed suspension and low slung tank. Ride height and ergos are so different between the FTR and the S that it's like comparing an MT-09 to an ADV. The hypothetical buyer you're describing only has like three choices that meet your criteria, and if they're looking at the FTR I think they'd be more likely to look at naked bikes next than a performance cruiser

Remember the HD XR1200X ? If only that bike wasnt build 15 years ago, but in 2021 with that new Sportster S engine in it and the modern screen and ride modes. THAT would be a bike to compare the FTR with.

Screw the sportster S engine imagine with the pan america engine instead it would be a beast !!

The FTR is the Monster Ducati SHOULD have made- especially now that they come with sporty rubber. Especially with the akro high mount exhaust!

I wish I could buy one of these. In Oz, we have Learner's licence process, where we are restricted to around 52HP, I was lazy and didnt't go full licence for 1.5 years because of the Lockdowns. Turns out, we are still restricted to 52HP even on full licence for the first 3 years! That will be 4.5 years on restricted motorcycles below 52HP! You guys are lucky in the US!

I’m in the US and have a modified Yamaha R3, honestly I’m keeping up and out riding other new riders on 600RR’s in the mountains. I do fall behind in the straights but not by much. 43RWHP.
