With an official product release long delayed by the Covid-19 epidemic, Indian Motorcycles Malaysia has released provisional prices for two models due to be imported in the local market. These are the Indian FTR1200, priced at RM125,000, and the Indian FTR1200 S Race Replica, tagged at RM145,000.
Expected Malaysian launch of the FTR and FTR S is expected to be “around November” with pre-orders being taken now. paultan.org earlier reported Indian Motorcycles was expected to make a comeback to Malaysia after Naza relinquished its distributorship for the brand in October 2020.
Additionally, the larger displacement models in the Indian Motorcycles range will be brought in by the new Malaysian distributor, specifically the Challenger
Indian Motorcycles, as the ‘other’ American motorcycle company, has made in-roads against its market rival Harley-Davidson, notably in the 1,200 cc V-twin segment. The Indian FTR has been a runaway success for the brand in its home market, with model variants offering performance and using brand name components such as Brembo brakes and Ohlins suspension.

Heritage Classic costs 20,799 USD in the states and RM129,900 in Malaysia.
The FTR costs 12,999 USD and RM125,888 (OTR price from official Indian Motorcycles sales associate) in Malaysia?
FYI the RM125,888 quote was for a 2019 MY while the Harley is for 2022 MY.
I know Malaysia have excise duties and all but the price premium over a Harley is mind boggling.
I think they’ve gone mad expecting people are going to pay this price..
Love the model but that’s insane pricing
Over priced American junk.

Overpriced, maybe, but junk this beauty is not.
