Pros Cons of Indian FTR 1200

Pros

  • Blast to ride
  • Performance-focused
  • Easy on the eyes

Cons

  • Not fuel efficient
  • Vibey
  • Shoddy engine tuning

Verdict

The Indian FTR 1200 is no adventure bike. It is more of a cross between a naked roadster and a scrambler. The race replica gets a sexier colour scheme along with an Akrapovic exhaust and a few other accessories. The FTR 1200 drops jaws wherever it goes and can match any of the middleweight nakeds in terms of performance. If you have the money and if you want to buy a rather niche motorcycle, the FTR 1200 makes a good case for itself!

Pros Cons Kawasaki Ninja 650

Pros

  • Refined engine
  • Comfortable riding posture
  • Value-friendly

Cons

  • Dated design
  • Slightly heavier
  • Low ground clearance

Verdict

The Ninja 650 may be a middleweight, but it feels like a small bike, and it doesn't have the intake roar or exhaust note associated with a high-performance motorcycle. It feels at ease handling traffic, and is equally comfortable on the highway, if you're in the mood for occasional long-distance touring. If you're looking to upgrade from a smaller bike, or you're new to motorcycling, the Kawasaki Ninja 650 could well be all the bike you need.
