FTR 1200 Hooligan Race Parts Two months ago, Indian Motorcycle released details of a range of Hooligan Racing inspired, RSD designed parts that it is marketing through its dealer network for FTR 1200 riders. Described as a "collaborative line-up of FTR 1200 parts that brings Super Hooligan racing inspiration to the street," the line-up includes an RSD 'Tracker' wheel set, swingarm stand spools, brake and shift levers, footpegs, frame sliders, handguards, engine cover, brake reservoir covers and handlebar grips. Seen here is another selection of RSD designed parts - this time of FTR 1200 Race Kit parts available for the racetrack from RSD and its distributors. The initial offer includes an adjustable offset race triple clamp kit, which is said to be "a huge improvement over the stock unit, including everything needed to tighten up turns, increase steering angle and give an ideal riding position," a fully tig welded aluminum Flat Track gas tank/subframe that "shaves weight and adds a ton of style," a "classic tracker fiberglass tail Aluminum Flat Track gas tank/subframe VO2 X Air Intakes These Vance & Hines VO2 X air intakes "extract the maximum performance from any machine by utilizing the K&N Xstream high-flow air filter." Features include CNCmachined billet cover, high-capacity washable air filter element, backing plate, venturi and breather assemblies. They are available in chrome or black contrast finish. Adjustable offset race triple clamp kit section and seat made specifically for our aluminum gas tank/subframe and a chromoly 3" under tig welded Flat Track swingarm that is stronger, lighter and tighter than the stock unit." Indian has been the platform of choice for the Roland Sands Design Super Hooligan National Championship race team essentially since the series' inception. "The RSD in-house team has worked closely with the FTR Flat Track tail section & seat for aluminum gas tank/subframe engineers and the AFT Indian Wrecking Crew technicians and developed one-off custom competition components, initially for the Scout, and now for the FTR 1200. "Although Indian manufactured the FTR 1200 for the street, a massive part of its heart and soul was pulled from Indian's American Flat Track dominance in the Twins class. The FTR evokes that racing spirit in stock trim, and now with the full line of RSD x FTR race parts, the stock FTR 1200 can be transformed into a Hooligan Street Tracker or race-ready Super Hooligan National Championship contender with minimal modifications."
