Hey all, I've been busy with my Indian Wrecking Crew FTR1200S RR Tribute build (Original Wrecking Crew post WWII). A supplier/manufacturer I'm working with wants to offer the FTR front and rear axles as a set for a discount, is anybody interest in a stronger lighter axles for their FTRs? Please let me know so I can pass it on. He will be offering most every bolt on the FTR in Titanium, I'm putting them all on my build. Chassis bolts, wheels/brakes, Engine cases/covers, and suspension he is making sets for them all to include a set drilled for racing. The IWC build is coming along, I have most of the parts but still waiting for the BST Candy Red wheels, Vortex sprocket and BrakeTech floating rotors. Will keep you up on the build... let me know about axles.

stronger and lighter is always good, will depend on the price especially for those of us not in the USA.

Just received some bolts to fit. Check out these dimpled Titanium bolts and sprocket nuts. The manufacturer is making up sets in black, blue, silver with dimpled heads, plain and drilled for racing. Will post more pics as I get them in to fit.

Those bolts look great! I would definitely be interested in the axles and a complete bolt set. I would love to see what the weight on one of these can be feasibly brought down to without making major compromise. Just finished the full Ti Akra exhaust last night and have previously removed a decent amount of weight already.

Where did you find the carbon inner fender? I could find any so was going to fab my own (still will in red carbon/kevlar) to match the other parts I'm making.

Here's a close up shot of the BST wheels for my build and another pic of the titanium front caliper bolts.

Power Bronze makes it. It's hydrodipped carbon print. Kinda lame, I would have gladly paid more for real carbon.

GQM thanks for the info. I'm going to make all the plastic pieces, counter shaft cover, small side covers, battery cover, chain guard, redesign front fender to be tighter, head light cowl, tracker tail section, and tank halves (reshaped so artwork can be smooth the entire length of the sides) and tank center piece out of carbon so will have molds to remake parts. I'll keep all in the loop on my progress.
