With that in mind, I went shopping, and landed on another flat track-inspired machine, the FTR 1200 from Indian Motorcycle. Scramblers are a dime-a-dozen anymore, and it seems like just about everyone is jumping on the bandwagon with some variation thereof, but flat-trackers are a sub-genre all their own and so Duc's Full Throttle will require something special for its head-to-head comparison. It also comes Ducati Multimedia System ready, so you can easily add a Bluetooth Control Unit to network your smartphone, helmet earpieces and Ducati's proprietary navigator system for the complete infotainment system.
It seems like such a minor thing, but it's difficult to overstate how much I like a clean instrument area, and this thing fits the bill perfectly. A short-rise bar leaves plenty of room for the pilot to tuck in, and it mounts an all-new set of switch controls with a single round instrument housing.Īn offset, backlit LCD screen delivers all the critical metrics, including a shift prompt and numerical gear indicator to go with a ring of LED idiot lights that take care of the rest. LED blinkers mount directly to the round headlight can on short standoffs to finish off the forward lighting.
A glass lens protects the cyclops headlight and its LED DRL ring that increases your visibility to the rest of the world, even in bright ambient conditions.
