Workhorse Speed Shop has lived up to its name in the past year. The Wavre, Belgium-based garage delivered a streamlined 2009 Triumph Street Triple 1050 in April, 2021, before turning its attention to two Indian FTR custom projects. Workhorse Speed Shop founder Brice Hennebert hit us with the ‘80s-inspired FTR AMA in February, 2022, and he hasn’t wasted any time following it up with the second build in the series—the FTR Black Swan.
While the FTR AMA paid homage to vintage road racers with an eye-catching front number plate, the Black Swan goes full superbike with an aggressive front fairing. Hennerbert may have fabricated a custom fuel tank and 7020 aluminum swingarm for the build but he turned to the CNC machining experts at Vinco Racing Engineering for the swingarm fitting, chassis plates, triple trees, and fuel cell components.
