The world’s finest custom FTR (according to Ola Stenegard who designed the FTR for Indian Motorcycle). This is a 2022 Indian FTR with bodywork by the master Cheetah, Tokyo, Japan.
The bodywork and centre panel was made as a one-off for this bike in Tokyo, painted and lacquered in Japan and flown to the UK to be fitted. The seat was also made in Japan.

Cheetah is Japanese custom bike royalty. Check out his builds to realise how special this bike is, and how few bikes he builds per year.

The bike was built by Sideburn magazine as a project bike for Indian Motorcycle. India showed it at the Bike Shed, Wheels & Waves and Motorcycle Live.

Underneath it’s a stock Indian FTR, so it has all the looks of killer custom with all the day-to-day dependability. It has 50 miles total on it.
