Gilles Tooling Becomes Indian Motorcycle Racing Technical Partner
Indian Motorcycle Racing and noted performance parts and accessory manufacturer Gilles Tooling (Luxembourg) have announced a collaboration that will see Gilles build on its already established partnership with Indian Motorcycle as an accessory supplier for the FTR1200.
In addition, Gilles will now act as a technical sponsor for the Indian Motorcycle Racing Team. "As we share a common passion for motorsport, we are excited about the opportunity to participate in races and other events together," said Gilles founder and CEO Gerhard Gilles.

| The brand partnership between Gilles and Indian Motorcycle Racing announced late last year saw the Luxembourg based manufacturer become a co-branded parts supplier of nine new FTR1200 parts designs, including these performance adjustable rearsets and levers. |
"We are confident that this collaboration will be beneficial for both, Gilles and Indian Motorcycle Racing. The roots of Gilles lie in racing. We have always kept close ties to racing and have been supporting world class teams ever since our foundation.
"The feedback from the racetrack influences all our products. The high number of World Champion titles we have helped teams win reflect our pedigree, and we remain represented as a sponsor in many racing series this year," says Gerhard.
"For us, design and aesthetics have not been our only, but rather, from the start, it has been our engineering skills, in all parts of design, engineering and production that have been the Gilles hallmark - we are driven by function."
