Indian FTR 1200 vs Kawasaki Z1000sx | Roll on performance TorqueFest! This video is about the Indian FTR1200 which we got our hands on for these last few months and forms part of our bigger review and opinion which should come out in the next few weeks.

In order of using making sense in our own minds how a bike performs, we often compare them to other machines we’re more used to… roll in Geoff’s own Kawasaki Z1000sx! Obviously, these bike do not relate to each other in any way and we’re quite clear about that during the video, however, it is the torquiest bike that we had on hand at the time, and the way that Geoff rides the bike is always using the torque of the Z1000sx, 5-6th gear roll on performance etc. And no doubt, the Kawasaki Z1000sx is a fast motorcycle with excellent in-gear accelleration, a hugely well rounded 1000cc inline 4 cylinder with loads of everyday usable poke (140ps and 81ft-lb torque to be clear). The Z1000sx is one of the best selling motorcycles in the UK year in and year out, a favourite with riders swapping their sportsbikes for something more comfortable, yet retaining a sporty feel...
