Indian Motorcycle did a great job with the Scout, especially the $9,999 price point. I preferred the 2024 Roadmaster Elite over the 2025. The Elite should also come with more performance.
As far as the Roadmaster IDK if performance is the target for that specific model however when it comes to the Chieftain and Challenger/Pursuit I think a little more performance should be a focus too.
The road master elite is a beautiful bike. I can’t express that enough. But that price point is pretty steep. Now for the ‘25 scout 60 lineup that price point is awesome for some new riders that wanna get into the Indian lineup. Indian did a great job with that.
The Elites IMO are the best "Top Tier" bikes because of the hand-painted body, the numbering system, and the limited quantity making them a sort of a Unicorn type bike. No surprise why the Scout is the best selling bike for IMC, at that price point I think it is going to be attractive for many buyers.
Disappointed across the line ... This is what they needed time for ? Revamp the same Roadmaster Elite, which except for the gen 2 sound system, looks exactly like my 2019 Roadmaster Elite. There is no upgrade to the Ride Command, which should've been the first priority. Upgrades on the Scout 60's but basically the same as the Scout lineup. The only thing that saves it is that, now, all the Scout accessories can be applied to every model Scout & Scout 60. It is disappointing that larger engines different displacements and configurations that were rumored have delayed for another year or canceled all together. H-D is not sitting on their hands, and their model release year will have, of not major, more surprises than this....
I can understand that however, I think IMC needed to update the software for the Ride Command system before they make it look better. No doubt I was looking for a larger screen but if it was a larger screen and still had issues I think that would be worse. I don't know this for sure but I would expect that they were working on the software over the look of the system, but again I too was expecting something different with the Ride Command. As far as the other models we still have not seen entire 2025 lineup so there still may be some surprises for the 2025 model year.
I gotta say, they did good with the sixty. I was really hoping for chieftain to get PP108. I was ready to trade my 17 Roadmaster, Now I don’t think that will happen. Maybe I’ll be surprised with tomorrow’s video 😊
Yeah, I can see the 60 being well received plus with the 100+ accessories available for the bike you can really spec it out how you want. A lot of people were looking for another PP108 bike at the event too... It seems like they are keeping that engine separate but I guess we will have to wait and see what happens...
What's up bro! The Road Master Elite is nice, but I'm not a fan of the front fender. That console is definitely nice! The 60 Bobber and Sport 60 would definitely be a nice addition! Looks like it would be fun city hoppers.
I too think the bikes are much better and IMO more reliable than HD, and of course, the dealer network for HD is more extensive than IMC but I think that only applies to your respective "local area". When traveling I have found that there are IMC dealerships along most major routes with enough frequency to provide support when needed. However, let's say it is something simple like a flat tire, any motorcycle shop can repair or replace a flat tire and in the case of a repair like a plug... any tire shop can do that. Not to say that I don't think more dealerships are needed I personally don't think it is as bad as some say it is based on my experiences.
Thanks for the vid Finesse. Great as always. What, no new Challenger/Elite upgrades?? lol
I haven't heard anything yet on the rest of the 2025 lineup, but you can be sure, I will make a video once I do.
I really like the look of the gauges on the tank of the road master
As do I, it is a nice touch.

I'm really liking what Indian is doing with the entry to mid-range bikes.
Indeed, I think they are priced nicely as well.
The Springfield in the new colours looks real nice 😍
Indeed.
9,999 is a good price!! It's what 1,200 less than any new HD. 🤷♂️
You know it!
waiting on the new Pursuit to drop....they keep teasing me...
WE in the same boat LOL. I am waiting too!

With the VIP access! 😄 Great video
Aye!!!! Yeah IMC has been great and I am grateful to have a few of the exclusive opportunities to share with everyone!
The Road master elite look good, I like that color.
It looks even better in the sunlight, in person!
I bet
Would like to see updates to the Challenger. Maybe slightly more HP/TQ, a facelift- perhaps a little more sporty.
Oh man, I am looking forward to see what's going to happen as well so I'm right there with you!
Any idea when the Challenger will be released?
None yet... IMC is keeping that one close to the chest LOL.

Agreed, this was a major failure. I instantly noticed the 2025 resembled my 2020 RM. Very disappointed.

I'm wondering if the 2025 Roadmaster Dark Horse has any changes or surprises?

I used to be the same way about the Freight Train front end but after seeing this bike, I think I like it... The 60 is absolutely a fun city hopper!
Indians have always in my opinion been faster and better looking,they just dont have the net work of dealerships .
