1:45 my great uncle rode a 1921 Indian scout from San Francisco to Watkins Glen, NY when he was discharged from the navy after WW1. Once I save up enough I'd love to get an Indian of my own and ride cross country in his name!
Took my Scout Bobber on a couple long multi day trips last year and added a Chieftain now. The Bobber is such a blast to ride and I the Chieftain is soo nice out on the open road. You hit the nail on the head with your review.
I have been looking at getting so many different bikes. Everytime this one pops up online I just stare at it. I'm finalizing my paperwork on one tomorrow :)
I'm 170 LB , short. the bounce on the back is perfect to me, i ate a pothole at 70 mph and the bike absorbed it very well, feels very safe on the highway, deceptively quick acceleration. i think the clutch feels harder than my honda shadow I couldn't be happier,
Agree with you man. My bobber I’ve put bigger bars and a new Corbin seat. I just went from San Bernardino to Laughlin on mine. Of course I would rather have your chieftain for the long distance but I still loved my bike for the ride. Keep up the great work man.
Just bought a titanium color, upgraded the rear shocks piggyback adjustable and the saddleman seat...it rides beautifully...I can get a long trip easily..great video
I have had mine since 2017,yes new suspension and stage one upgrade.my first American bike.ppl ask why i don't get a bigger bike but in CA and every road has traffic lane filtering is great.no fuel gauge just a light about 100 miles 3.3 gal tank.did do 500 miles in one day going to yuma but get fuel anxiety. 6,3 270lbs no windscreen 80 is my normal cruz speed but 90mph is hard for wind.
Spot on review of the bike. Everything you mentioned is very accurate. What I did to improve the ride of my Indian Scout Bobber was changed the stock tires to pirelli night dragons and got a Corbin. After a 2 hour ride to my dealer I knew that seat had to go. Rides so much better now. I want to mention that this is my first bike, so I don’t know any better lol.
@@FNGMOTO I'm in Korea for a year anyway, buying a brand new one when I get home. It'll be a MY20. I've read that the seat isn't so comfortable and the exhaust is too quiet, opinion?
The scout has a lot of options for rides...fairings hard bags..extendfoot controls passanger backrests ape hangers...its crazy that this little guy has 100 horse..
I've barely given a second look to any Bobber or Cafe Racer style bikes. Like you, I'm a taller and bigger guy, for which this style was not designed for. But this bike is pretty sharp looking, and I can see the appeal it will have to the intended riders. Great review on a good looking bike. Nicely Done. Stay Alert. Ride Safe, in a fun way. Thanks for sharing. 😎.
Fair review, man! I tested one just last weekend and loved it. Would have probably made the same points about the riding position, modest damping and what it is good for. I actually wanted to try the 'normal' scout but they only had the bobber available so took that one. I think I would probably actually prefer the scout because of the riding position and more suspension travel. What I really loved about this machine is how the engine, gearbox and geometry works together so immaculately! ...and it really goes! Have to seriously hang on to it when the road opens up! :D Immense fun!
While I’m a big Harley fan, I’ve been able to ride my buddy’s scout. It is an awesome small motorcycle. I would say that it is more refined than the Harley 48. Can’t go wrong if you decide to buy one
Ive seen a few of these customized and they can make the most awesome looking bobbers when that rear fender is eliminated and a few other changes made.
Considering that in many countries (Brazil included) one of those bikes can be very expensive, and the bigger models even more, many motorcycles travel across country (and to other ones, like all over South America or from Brazil to Alaska on a Honda 150cc) in the smaller models: Indian Scout or HD Sportster. I am positive a bigger bike is more reliable and comfortable than a smaller one (I own a TC96 myself), but necessity is the mother of invention, my friend! Crushing those miles, no matter what it takes! The wind is the same! I am sure your reviews are helpful for future buyers! Keep it up!
Adam, I have to say, I really like your videos. It is a rare thing for me to comment on a video. But I felt that I needed to give you this feedback. I have ridden since I was a child and have never owned a Harley or Indian. I have only owned Hondas, 2 VTX 1800s, a Shadow 1100, and a CB. However, you make Harleys and Indians accessible and friendly and I really enjoy listening to you and your girlfriend enjoy your adventures with your little pup. I am a veteran and am looking at my first Harley. I may trade my Honda CB1100EX all because you have made this life seem so appealing to me. I am in North Texas and not too far from the Paris Harley you speak about so often. Maybe I will see you there. See you on the road.
One of the guys at work brought his to work and let me ride it today the seat I found not that comfy but the stance of this bike and the fact that I am only 5ft 8 makes it perfect for me and I love the look I think this bike is sick and it's what I would want because I am not a touring rider so this would be my everyday rider to work and anywhere on my own. As long as it was not for extended periods of time I have sat on way comfier seats.
I purchased a 2018 in 2017 and love it. High rpm 8k redline in first gear and hit 70mph. I prefer this bike over Harleys 1200’s. I’ve driven it inner city and Austin to San Antonio without issue. Getting a stabilizer bar to help reduce the risk of wobble at high speeds. It’s grade “A” in my book. Thanks for you review. Downside to me is the missing fuel gauge, dont like just a warning low on gas when est 50 miles left...
You can use your trip-meter in the multi-function display to track your fuel. My low fuel light goes off around 90 miles and after that it will have 25% fuel/30 mile range left.
First off, always dig the content! your the man Adam! second, might want to re-name the video from Indian Sout to Indian Scout. Keep the rubber down bro!
@Nightraid yourface I don't look at HP numbers as much as I do torque in the sweet spot. If the Scout is going to be used in the upper rpm all the time then yes it has the advantage. But, in the normal riding area Sportsters have a torque rating of 73.0 ft. Lb.@3500 RPM, where as the Scout has a torque rating of 72.0 ft. Lb. @ 6000 RPM. The Sportster has the better numbers in the lower RPM(0 to 3500) range of a v-twin. I'm not into full out WOT when I ride so looking at the torque numbers I would go with the sportster as my choice. It's really what you are looking to use the bike for. If you like speed or just go out and cruise. Now when it comes down to gearing that depends on how final drive is set up. I can't find the ratios. But really the scout is not a low rpm cruiser. You have to keep the rpm above 2500 for risk of lugging the engine. So you have to learn how to ride that bike different if you have ridden traditional air cooled v-twin.
@Nightraid yourface the 2 engines are different animals. One turns 8000 rpm and the hp number is at 7500 rpm. Harleys are not made to run at high RPM. Where and how I ride, torque is the important factor. Horsepower is the total power output of an engine, while torque measures the "turning/torquing ability" of the engine. Practically, torque is a better measurement of how quickly your bike will accelerate, while horsepower (relative to weight) is a better measure of your bike's top speed. I am not a drag racer. I don't need top speed over acceleration. I like air cooled engines, less to maintain and worry about than liquid cooled engines. Thermostats have a tendency of going bad. Hoses needing replacement. Fluid change, etc. 1200 Sportster turns 3200 rpm at 70 mph in 5th gear. Indian Scout Bobber- A six-speed transmission and a left-side final-drive belt transmit power to the rear wheel. The Scout is geared to comfortably roll along at 70 mph in sixth gear at 3,750 rpm.
All this talk about torque and horsepower. Long story short. The scout can run high 11's in the 1/4 mile. The 1200 Evo sporty cant even muster 13's.... Low end torque is useless on a motorcycle sinve you only have a 3 inch contact patch. Two things happen with major low end torque on such a tiny contact patch, you spin your tire under heavy acceleration or you wheelie under heavy acceleration. Otherwise you have to pedal it, which hinders your ability to go wide open throttle sooner. The 1/4 mile times speak for themselves really.
Great review, my gf has the scout and i do ride it for fun occasionally and i know what you're saying for size, I'm 6'5"! But going around a rotary at 55+mph is really fun!
Hey Adam, great review, you said you are 6'2 220 would be a little rough but daily rides works for you is great for people who want to get into riding local and being a little bigger. Great job
I dig you call it small, funny thing: the 1953 Indian Chief weighed in at 560 lbs, with a 62 inch wheelbase, the Bobber is 554 lbs and has a 61 and a half inch wheelbase, the 53 Chief appears huge when you see one doesn't it?
Add a Corbin seat or spring-loaded solo seat for comfort, dirty Bird concepts scout pipe or Vance & Hines grenades exhaust systems and down shift before breaking or research a single disc brembo brake system for the front end. 🗨️😎💢
I'm subbing and will have to watch through your reviews. I'm a bigger guy as well, cruiser rider. Will be nice to hear how a big guy feels on these bikes.
I'm 5 11 185lbs, debating between this or the 2018 fatbob. I've had R6 for 8 years and just tired of sports bike. guys help me make the decision on which one.
Looks sharp, it would be to small for me as well. I to like the tours. I bought an older Royal Star Venture and i love it. I would like to say that the best way to test ride them is at Bike rallies that offer them to test ride in a group cause the Dealers won't let you take one to far just like around the block and that just isn't long enough. Ride safe every one.
Thinking I will go the other way, switch the Chief in a Bobber ... 99.9% of the time I ride under 150 miles so ... The look! Gotta get me a Bobber! love it!
When you buy the passenger seat it comes with the pegs but yeah also mirrors dont come mounted upside down, never did. Thats a common modification for them
I've always wanted to learn how to ride a bike but I'm a little on the shorter side around 5' 9ish" with shoes on. Something that sits lower to the ground might work better for me. Nice vid man.
Adam good vid, since the Scout and 48 are similar or what both Manufacturers are mirroring. I know the 48 has an extremely small gas tank and from the looks of the Scout maybe Indian got a leg up on that?
Cool Scout Bobber. To me, "similar" to a small 883 Hugger/Sportster I use to own. I never rode it long distance, thinking, it would not be comfortable enough for my back. However, other sources said, their 883 rode fine long distance. Maybe, the Indian Scout Bobber would as well. Sure is a nice one!
Usually here: shop.adamsandovalrides.com/shop-all/. We're out right now but there's lots of other Americans items. T-shirts, hoodies, patches, etc. Check it out 👊
I love my 2019 Indian Scout Bobber, however... is it normal for the exhaust pipe to get extremely hot even when it was just idling for a couple of minutes? This is my first bike so I'm not sure if this is normal or not.
Hey Adam great videos just got out the army and got home thinking about getting a ftr1200 what do u think could u do a review on one or compared to a scout ? Thanks
The bike looks great I think for small people it would be small I'm 5'5 200lbs and my 2018 harley heritage is the perfect size for me. I think the 883 would be the competitor for it.
If you’re leaving the sport bikes and want to get a cruiser, this is it. I took one for a test ride and all I could do was smile.
good to know!
I saw one review where a guy was scraping the foot pegs during turns, was that a problem you guys had??
@@recklessrelentless6723 coming from sport bikes the lean angle on the bobber is way less and will catch you off guard. just have to get used to it
@@dthurlow8587 Yeah I'm on a 2013 CBR500R right now but I wanna get into cruisers. Probably gonna go with the Night Rod Special. Thanks for the info!

The Raptor is a RoadGlide copy with its fairing and bags; still a nice bike.

Another great review Adam!! Love you videos!! I just subscribed. I ride a Yamaha bolt, but I’ve got my eye on one of these scouts!
Get a loud exhaust on that and it sounds sweet, saw one in the road and the exhaust sound was impressive.
Fire Bird freedom combat sounds great but its gonna be expensive

Keep the rubber down bro!
I'm not even a bike guy but this thing makes me want to get my license.
The scout engine has overhead cams. Should rev to 8000.
Harley sportster can't compare in rpm. Pushrod engine.
@Nightraid yourface I don't look at HP numbers as much as I do torque in the sweet spot.
If the Scout is going to be used in the upper rpm all the time then yes it has the advantage.
But, in the normal riding area Sportsters have a torque rating of 73.0 ft. Lb.@3500 RPM, where as the Scout has a torque rating of 72.0 ft. Lb. @ 6000 RPM.

Adam, Thank You for the review. I like the looks of the Scout Bobber.
Hey Adam, great review, you said you are 6'2 220 would be a little rough but daily rides works for you is great for people who want to get into riding local and being a little bigger. Great job

Wish they made a bigger version

Once you put a Corbin on it and get that Alf nose seat off its 60% better. Keep it up bro!
Hella Stoked Garage all about the Corbin!!! Lol
🤘🏽😂🤘🏽
Hella Stoked Garage it helped on my trip to Laughlin this past weekend.

Have you ever tried a Harley sport bike ? Like track style type.
I got a HD 48 but it was a toss up between these two for sure. Nice machine.
Exhaust sound?
Good honest review. We didn’t really see you on it, but Im sure that you looked a little too big for that frame. Cool looking bike tho. Thanks
Be a cool around town bar hopper type bike for sure
Drinks after the ride, for sure.
Adam Sandoval for sure and when I ride out later this year if you’re around first round be on me sir and probably 2nd round also lol
That bike looks cool, cool enough for some discomfort possibly
Great review bro
Is this a good first bike?
I'd say alot of people would be stoked to have this as a first bike.. others not so much. Depends on your style and preference
Higher bars and maybe change the seat. The bike itself looks awesome.
I sat on this bike last week. The way the seat hits the frame around your inner thigh hurts. The seat isn't comfortable.
Great review, gonna have to check out Indian when it’s time for a new bike. If the bobber is too small for you, there is no way I would fit on it. 😂
I love the honest review of this bike.
Does this bike have a place to plug in a cell phone? Great video, good info
Ciro 3d has a great selection of cellphone mounts equipped with chargers. Here's one: www.ciro3d.com/product/50000-premium-smartphone-gps-holder
Awesome review. I just wish they would bring back the victory line.
Charles Sexton The Victory's were really sharp looking bikes, but were too expensive.
@@gregorywilliams9302 yeah but I still love the cross country
Charles Sexton Maybe it will be back in a couple of years. Let's hope.
@@gregorywilliams9302 that would awesome.
Is it suitable as a first bike for a beginner rider?
It's a fun bike to ride but isn't meant for bigger riders. I loved it for what its is. Im 6-7 250
That bike have red color?
Is the motor made by Indian,or outsourced to SS company
I’m 5’ 7” and 140 and I think this bike would be better suited for someone my size than for your 6’3” frame
The bike looks great I think for small people it would be small I'm 5'5 200lbs and my 2018 harley heritage is the perfect size for me. I think the 883 would be the competitor for it.
The Sportster 1200 is closest while the 883 is closer to the Scout 60
Say it, don't spray it! 🤣
I love the bobber style.
