Indian built the flat tracker. This is the adventure bike that should have come next.

The nav tower, carbon fairing, skid plate, racks and hard luggage were designed as one system for the Indian FTR 1200.

The FTR is way more fun than a GS. This is how you turn a flat tracker into an adventure bike.

The first-generation FTR is a far more capable motorcycle than Indian let on. It holds a line through the twisties like a sportbike, and with nearly six inches of travel it goes further off pavement than any scrambler: fire roads, two-track, the national forest routes, the backcountry. It was always this bike. It just shipped without the equipment.

These parts keep it an FTR. You are not doing Ophir Pass, and the GS probably is not either. But they will let you ride where you want to and explore a lot farther than you expected, with the wind off your chest and a week of gear on the back. You keep the bike you bought because you loved how it looked, and you get the bike it should have been.

The FTR 1200, reconstructed for the back roads.

Every part here was modeled to form a complete adventure kit for the Indian FTR. The ADV requirements of navigation, protection and luggage have all been addressed to give a capable platform the ability to go as far as you want to go.

FTR ADV parts

Each part works on its own or as the complete kit. Between them they cover what the FTR shipped without: protection under the engine, navigation with the weather off your chest, and somewhere to carry a week of gear.

If the kit is a lot

Start with the skid plate and the rack.

The skid plate is the first thing the FTR needs off pavement and the last thing you want to learn about the hard way. The skid plate was designed to be low profile, and to hug the engine so it will look good with the sport oriented FTRs, as well as those with fire roads in mind.

The luggage rack is what turns a day ride into a weekend. An afternoon each, and both are in the complete kit. A solid place to mount a big duffle, or just tools in a small kit that you don’t want on the tank.

Skid Plate

4.75 mm formed aluminum under the engine.

Install

Goes on in a weekend with hand tools. The manual and every fastener come in the box.

Reversible

Nothing is cut or drilled and no wire is spliced. The stock parts go back on.

Ships

Made to order in Asheville, NC, and ships in two to four weeks.

Returns

30 days on unused parts. If a part arrives damaged or wrong, we make it right.

The FTR is first. Three more platforms are on the bench.

In development

Yamaha Ténéré 700

The Roan Cowl, a carbon headlamp cowl built around Denali lighting. It remembers the early Dakar Ténérés and XTs, with pro-level lighting and room for a digital dash.

In development

Honda Transalp

The same Roan Cowl on the Transalp's own clamp. It lightens the front of the bike and carries the Africa Twin twin-headlight face, in homage to the NXR750V.

Still sketching

BMW R 12 G/S

A half fairing in the 1989 R100GS Paris-Dakar line, with a split mold, a CNC machined head clamp and twin headlights. It is the hardest thing on the list and the one I most want to build.

Cannonball Gear

Everything starts as a sketch. Some of them end up in aluminum.

Sketching is how I learn and ask questions. Most of the time I do it for fun. A few of those questions turn into Fusion models and then into parts. A lot become illustrations on graphic tees, hoodies and mugs.
