The Indian Scout FTR750 is a competition-only motorcycle engine made by Indian Motorcycle for flat track racing. It is a fuel-injected, liquid-cooled, four-valve-per-cylinder V-twin.[1] A single-pin crankshaft riding on plain bearings carries side-by-side steel connecting rods.[2] It is the first all-new flat track racing motor from Indian Motorcycle in decades.

On June 14, 2016 Jared Mees announced that he will join Indian as their flat track test rider.[3] On September 6, 2016, Joe Kopp was announced as the first rider to race the FTR750 at the upcoming Santa Rosa Mile in Santa Rosa, California on September 25, 2016.[4] The FTR750 is slated to be used in GNC1 competition in AMA Pro Flat Track racing full-time in 2017.

[edit]

Indian markets the FTR1200 as a street-legal rendition of the FTR750. They have some appearance similarities including a steel trellis frame and trellis swingarm.[5]
