The all-new electric mini-bike is unique in its dynamic styling,
allowing young riders to feel like a member of the iconic Indian
Motorcycle Wrecking Crew that dominated flat track in the 1950’s
and have won every championship since their return to the sport in
2017. Featuring two ride modes, low and high, a seat height of 23.5
inches, and a maximum weight of 175 pounds, the eFTR Jr can
accommodate riders eight years and older when in low mode, and 13
and over in high mode. The bike’s telescopic front forks and
mono-shock rear suspension provide a smooth, comfortable ride,
while the bike’s rugged steel frame provides a durable structure
for beginning riders. The eFTR Jr’s dual-disc brakes offer premium
stopping power for increased control and rider confidence.
“Whether it was a father, mother, uncle or family friend, most
motorcyclists have fond memories of the person that introduced them
to riding, and that’s the spirit behind the eFTR Jr,” said Ross
Clifford, Vice President of Parts, Garments, and Accessories at
Indian Motorcycle. “We wanted our first youth offering to be
electric to provide a safe, simplistic and clean form of
motorcycling for children, all wrapped up in the signature look of
the FTR750. The eFTR Jr can kickstart a lifetime of riding memories
for the whole family.”
Working in tandem with Razor USA, Indian Motorcycle’s product
development team designed the eFTR Jr around Razor’s trusted and
proven electric powertrain. The eFTR Jr’s 36-volt rechargeable
battery will run for 140 minutes in low mode at 10 mph and 65
minutes in high mode at 15 mph.
Launching in parallel with the eFTR Jr, Indian Motorcycle is
offering a brand-new line of protective youth apparel, including an
eFTR Jr helmet, body armor, gloves, and an Indian Motorcycle Racing
replica jersey. The eFTR Jr youth apparel collection features
Indian Motorcycle Racing branding and has been designed for
enhanced rider safety and protection.
Manufactured by Razor USA, the eFTR Jr is available online at
IndianMotorcycle.com and Indian Motorcycle dealerships exclusively
throughout US and Canada for $749.99 (USD) and $999.99 (CAD).
