    Where did you ride your FTR today?

    The weather has been mild in Pittsburgh, PA for the past two weeks. FTR is still tucked away but I have been putting a lot of miles (1,000) on my Challenger and yesterday rode “Plain Jane” the big bore Scout!

    Would you buy another Indian?

    FTR coolant junction

    Mine was done from the side with the frame taped. The work was completed with no scratches on the frame. I think a lot depends on the “skill” of the technician doing the work. Cameron at Pitt Cycles told me he got a lot better at it after he had 4-5 bikes under his belt.
