Indian Motorcycle is now offering the race ready Scout FTR750 for sale

Fans of flat track racing with a spare US$50,000 on their hands now have the opportunity to buy the same race-ready version of the Indian Motorcycle Scout FTR750 that the company will be running later this year in the AMA Flat Track series.

Indian Motorcycle announced that it was getting back into flat track racing after a 60-plus year absence earlier this year. The company followed up that announcement with a maiden run of the purpose-built FTR750 in the last race of the AMA Flat Track circuit at the Santa Rosa Mile.

Each of the FTR750s aimed at the public will be made to order and Indian is not putting a cap on how many the company will build. Interested buyers can contact their local Indian dealer and place a deposit with delivery of their own race bike expected sometime in Q3 of this year. A list of Indian dealers is on the company website.

There's nothing in wheel races nearly as exciting as dirt track racing. More brands the merrier. This is one beautiful machine. Now if only the manufacturers would come out with light weight,simple street legal machines modeled after the dirt trackers at a affordable cost. H.D. has tried but typically 100lbs too fat.

Exactly my sentiment too, DRBrown. This Indian looks fantastic and while most of us aren't racers we nevertheless enjoy the cache of bikes like the XR750. Indian might have just enough rebel in them to make a street version of this bike. It would sure get me into the showroom.

Add just enough stuff to make it road legal and watch the demand take off !
