Indian FTR x 100% R Carbon – limited edition is equipped with top-of-the-line components.

Every year, EICMA is an occasion where motorcycle manufacturers come together to showcase their most interesting new models. In many cases, it is also where these same manufacturers choose to reveal something particularly special. Even though manufacturers say they love all of their new motorcycles equally, it is usually quite clear that some may be more appreciated than others. The limited edition 2024 Indian FTR x 100% R Carbon is clearly one of them. As always, it has the 1,203 cc twin-cylinder engine, with liquid cooling. It allegedly produces 92 kW along with 118 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. It is mated to a six-speed gearbox with an assisted and slipper clutch.

Suspension consists of a fully adjustable 43 mm Öhlins inverted telescopic fork at the front, together with a fully adjustable Öhlins piggyback setup at the rear. Both ends offer 120 mm of travel.  

Braking duties are handled by a pair of 320 mm discs with four-piston Brembo calipers at the front. At the rear, you’ll find a single 260 mm disc with a two-piston Brembo caliper. The wheels are a pair of 17-inch cast aluminum alloy units shod with Metzeler Sportec tires.

The display on the Indian FTR x 100% R Carbon 2024 is a 101 mm (or 3.9 inches) touchscreen equipped with Ride Command, offering navigation and Bluetooth connectivity.  

The FTR has three riding modes: Rain, Standard, and Sport. It also features a range of rider aids, including ABS with lean angle sensitivity, stability control, traction control, and cruise control. It also has a USB charging port, so you can keep your smartphone or other digital device of your choice charged while traveling. 

Features

The first characteristic of the Indian FTR x 100% R Carbon 2024 is, obviously, the accentuated blue carbon fiber. It is a color that Indian calls Blue Candy. 

The Blue Candy carbon fiber can be found on the tank, headlight frame, seat cowl, and front fender. The frame receives a glossy white powder coating to provide a nice contrast to the blue carbon fiber. Red details, sparingly used, make the bike stand out but also help maintain a proper appearance. 

This bike also gets a black titanium Akrapovič exhaust, as well as non-blue carbon fiber elements, including engine covers, chain protection, and exhaust heat shielding. The handlebar weights, oil cap, and radiator cap receive an extra touch of class from Gilles Tooling.
