An inside look at the latest builds from Workhorse Speed Shop.

Brice Hennebert, owner of Workhorse Speed Shop, in Belgium, has been busy during lockdown. After creating Appaloosa V1.0 in 2019 for the Sultans of Sprint then re-working the Indian Scout build into Appaloosa V2.0 for the Baikal Mile Ice Festival, Brice has focussed his attention on building two special dream bikes based on the Indian FTR 1200.

The first build, Black Swan, is a 90s-era sportbike concept utilizing the latest parts and materials. The build extensively uses carbon fiber to minimize weight, Öhlins suspension, Beringer brakes, and modern additions such as a quickshifter.

The second build, FTR AMA, is based on ’80s era AMA Superbikes and rally cars, inspiring an angular design and will be finished in the classic Martini Racing livery. 
Adjustable Öhlins suspension and Beringer brakes are some of the premium parts making up the builds.

We caught up with Brice to get an insight into his latest projects, both of which are shaping up to be remarkably interesting, but quite different builds – just as we have come to expect from Workhorse.
