2022 Harley-Davidson Sportster S Vs. Indian FTR 1200 | Spec Showdown
Ah the 2022 Sportster S vs. Indians FTR 1200.
One of Harley-Davidson’s most iconic motorcycles is the Sportster. It’s remained nearly unchanged for several years, until 2021. With the release of the Sportster S, Harley aimed to update their historic model and bring it into modern day. The updates on the Sportster S included an all new liquid cooled Vtwin that put out enough power at the twist of the throttle to bring this bike into a new segment for the brand. By new segment, I mean that this motorcycle now stands in a different category for Harley. It’s known as their top Sport Cruiser. Being a sport cruiser means there is now new modern competitors put up against this beast. One being, the Indian FTR 1200.
The FTR 1200 is a motorcycle modeled after the brands flat track bikes that always make a killing in racing. The FTR is powered by a torquey 1203 cc engine. At first glance this motorcycle might not look like a proper competitor to the Sportster S, but with a closer look…you’ll see how similar they are. Both have American made 60 degree Vtwins, both have fun ride modes, cornering ABS and traction control. They both also have a starting price point of $14,999. So what makes these bikes differ beyond their looks and brand name? Find out in this video!

    From all of the comparisons I've seen, the Indian stock shocks and stock seat is very uncomfortable on the lower back. Owners report getting the Fox adjustable shocks are so much better. I've never heard any complaints about the Triumph bobber seat.

    Combine it with a motion-sensing high-decibel alarm for those quick 5 min. trips into a store (in a safe neighborhood) - that's the *only* use case for this helmet lock, I believe.

    I have the complete suit and love it. It has kept me warm down to temps in the high 20 degree F range with proper base layer. It does get rather warm at temps above 80 degrees, even with the vents open and liner out. Something to keep in mind if you ride in a hot desert climate. I’ve personally worn this suit riding at interstate speeds during rain that lasted for several hours and it kept me dry. Great quality and very comfortable. It’s definitely worth a look if you’re in the market for a good quality riding suit that won’t break your budget.

    Right, just thought I’d share my thoughts. I’ve ruined my previous iPhone camera having no damper. Rode about 4K miles when it broke and then I’ve installed the damper, on 2K miles with the damper now and hoping 🤞🏻 it works but does it? Apparently it makes a huge difference when mounting the phone vertical not horizontal ( mines always horizontal) but is it though? I’ll get back here when ( hopefully not 😂) my phone camera fails having a damper and mounted horizontal to share my experience. Any tips and help on such an ball ache very welcome and appreciated. Safe rides y’all 💪🏻👊🏻🤙🏻

Now I have the iPhone 14 pro max and I don’t know what to do I don’t trust any mount. In the end is cheapest to buy a GPS and just use the phone as a phone and camera, I don’t know.

    This video is a prime example of a channel with no motorcycle compairing two totally diff classes of bikes. These two bikes cannot and shoukd never be compared. The sportster s is a street beast that eats most street japanese bikes under 100mph (which most ride anyway) The scout bobster should only be compared to the 48

    I think you swapped the sides on the frame sliders...If you needed a longer one to go to the side where your exhaust is. Second, didn't you put something under the engine because when you pull out the factory rod (engine mount) then the engine goes down because of the weight and you can't put the slider rod in?

    I think the BEST would be wireless heated gloves powered by bike's battery ....does anyone make such? I envision the motorcycle would simply have powered not heated coils in the grips and the heated gloves would be powered inductively by said coils. I suppose the gloves might need their own small battery? Then the coil would wirelessly keep them charged? idk just inductive heaters powered by the field generated in the coil That seems like the best of all worlds as they would never drain down all the way so long as you are riding yet unlike heated grips it would heat the entire hand not just the palms Of course the BAD thing would be really expensive gloves if quality protection meaning you woud have summer and winter gloves. Question is does anyone make such?

  • @marktrudgett3270
    @marktrudgett3270 Рік тому

    I own the Triumph and my wife has the Indian. They’re both great bikes, equally uncomfortable in stock form with springs and damper rates designed for quite heavy riders. The Triumph has less power on paper but significantly more torque much lower in the rev range (108 Nm @4000 rpm as opposed to 97 @ 5000), making it faster than the Indian off the mark. Only at illegal speeds does the Indian catch it… and pass. The Triumph’s fit and finish and quality of parts are a step above the Indian (which is still very good). They are both a complete hoot to ride and they’re both very eye-catching. I describe the Indian as a “beast” but the Triumph as a “brute”. Buy both. We did!😮

    • @marktrudgett3270
      @marktrudgett3270 7 днів тому

      @@JuanLopez-tq7zf hey Juan and welcome to the world of motorcycling! A beginner bike? I would suggest a standard (naked) bike with 40 to 50 hp. If you can get adjustable suspension and premium brakes in that range, then those are good things, too. Reasons: you need enough power to learn good throttle control but not so much that you don’t yeet yourself into oblivion when you do get it wrong. Next biggest thing to learn I braking. As you build confidence and skill you may notice that the bike sometimes behaves in a way that you don’t like: suspension. Get a naked because it’s easy to learn what/where everything is and to start learning the mechanics of a machine that you will enjoy for many hours on those wild wide roads!
