These Scout videos are just perfect! Nice music on top of showing off the details and then hearing the bike's exhaust and the clicks of the shifter.....great great job!
While I think the new Scouts are sexy, that bike is the same color as Telly Savalas' 1974 Buick Century in 'Kojak'. If that's your thing, great! However, I'm old enough to remember the 1970's. When everybody wore brown clothes, drove brown cars, lived in brown houses, with brown walls, brown floors, filled with brown furniture and brown appliances. Brown was the hip color, but it was quite depressing! Some "retro" things should really be left in the past . . .
I'm looking into getting Indian, but as a short rider (5'6 ~ 5'7) not sure if the Scout will be the better option or the Chief. I mean I don't know if I'll reach the handlebars comfortable or i'll need the "reduced reach" one or something like that.
Hey man, great job covering the new Scout lineup. I am considering the Harley Sportster S and the Indian 101. Both bikes are very similar but I don’t have experience with either. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks
Best thing is to go ride both at the demo days. 101 is showing up on the trucks now. I can't give you info on Sportster S as I haven't ridden it, unfortunately. Harley's fault lol. I got some fun coming up showcasing 101 tho!
OMG!!! 😂 I have a 2018 SB and I absolutely couldn't wait to upgrade the exhaust! I went w/ a Hacker Mayhem 2-in-1 exhaust and the damn thing roars. Unfortunately, Hacker Mayhem is no longer in business so I suppose that increased the value of my bike that much more.
Did they discontinue the bobber 20? I haven’t seen an option with the spoke wheels or the mini apes for the ‘25 lineup. I love all the upgrades but I need the mini apes for ride comfort.
Mini apes should convert over no problem using the triple for Scout Bobber, Classic or Super. As for the model, no mention of it. My guess is a trim will come with those options next year. Solo seat and what not.
The saddlebags for the Scout, yes. ‘25 Scouts all use the same subframe so everything is interchangeable. Some parts from the previous gen carry over too.
Prefer a plain analogue speedo - l can imagine the amount of red light warnings that will be popping up on that on a weekly basis. All you need is mph and fuel.
There’s a plain analogue speedo available for this exact bike. It’ll still pop up lights if something is wrong. I don’t understand why you wouldn’t want to know if something is wrong. 😅
Gotta say, and i dont know why im not noticing it until this video, but im not diggin the aesthetics of that new engine tho . . . Seems just too plain to me.
Yeah, very vocal complaints on it. I'm on the fence about it. BUT! I'd have them powdered a funky color. Couldn't do that with the previous ones as easy.
That display is astonishingly slow to boot... How long did it take, a good 30-40 seconds? It's a great looking bike, but that dash should be 3-4 times faster to boot and as twice as bright. And remove that f...g splash screen animation, it's very annoying especially given how slow it is. Take a note how slow the map is redrawing and how "jumpy" tach gauge when the guy rev it up... its not because of the engine, its because that dash does not have enough power to smoothly redraw the needle animation. Indian, look at the electronic dashes from HD Nightster or BMW and make it better. Then that would be a perfect bike.
Each release, Indian gets better with that paint. My goodness I'm a fan.
YES!!!!!! Thank you so much for FINALLY uploading the Bobber.
These Scout videos are just perfect! Nice music on top of showing off the details and then hearing the bike's exhaust and the clicks of the shifter.....great great job!
Glad you got value from them!
This one right there, that old school Bicasso vibe! That Fro'd, prescription glass wearing Bicasso. 👐 Long live the Bobber! 😎
Oh you went BACK BACK with that one lol
@@BrandonBicasso OG Bicasso fan card! 💳
I'm in the stands at a double header baseball game right now, but I can't wait to watch when I get home this evening. 😊
Heck yeah, enjoy it!
Thanks so much for doing these videos buds!!
Im really enjoying the way you are covering the new lineup - and all of your content for that matter!
Glad you're getting value out of it!
What a wonderful Bike! 😍Perfect in any detail! 🤘
I just want that speedo on my 2018.
There it is!
Excellent demo B.B., it’s an amazing first look! Are they going to let you take it for a test ride? ✌🏾
More than a test ride. Something like an experience.

Maybe so. There's also a really nice blue in this paint design. Looks really nice.
@@BrandonBicasso Yup, saw that! Straight up 1980's baby blue/grey, usually paired with mauve. And brown! 😆 Pay no attention to me, I'm old and jaded.
Definitely digging the paint on this. Kinda over the matte/finishes on these otherwise badass Indians
Yeah, the little headdress logo in the paint is top tier.
I hope with Indian adding the 4in Ride Command to the new scouts that more updates come for it on my ‘22 CDH.
I wanted a different UI, personally.
@@BrandonBicasso It is a bit clunky.
I love that color.
Very vibrant in person.
That’s a beautiful bike, love them
Other than the rear suspension, def a good ride.
Keep on with the ergo shots on your every vdeo bro..👌
Winner! H-D has real competition now. Indian would be my choice in a middle weight cruiser.
very good video, greetings from Germany
👋🏾

You’ll be fine on either. Ride them both and get the handlebar and seat option that works if needed. They both have the options.
Nice!
Cant wait to see you reassemble a busted one😅
🤣🤣
Nice bike. First thing I would do is slap a new exhaust on it. All that power - needs to hear it!
I ordered that same model and color! It's supposed to be here by the end of the month.
Ooo!! I know you’re crazy excited!
@@BrandonBicasso I can't wait!
Deadly bikes .

Good looking bike. Nice video sir.
Beautiful bike!
Damn bro you get to have all the fun! lol
Can you blame them for having this handsome face out?
@@BrandonBicasso I mean, you do kinda remind of a young Billy Dee Williams lol
Damn I wish!
Manifest it. ✨
Thank the gods for the ability to upgrade from that exhaust system...
Facts haha. It doesn't sound as bad riding the bike tbh, but at least there are options to change it.
OMG!!! 😂 I have a 2018 SB and I absolutely couldn't wait to upgrade the exhaust! I went w/ a Hacker Mayhem 2-in-1 exhaust and the damn thing roars. Unfortunately, Hacker Mayhem is no longer in business so I suppose that increased the value of my bike that much more.
That interface is saf!
I love it. Not perfect but it’s better than the first iteration.
Much cleaner than HD special and almost same price, I'll go Indian

Damn beauty ❤
😮 it redlines at 9,000 rpm ?
8500
Definitely the most badass bike ever...
That paint is nasty.
@@BrandonBicasso I am kenyan this is my dream bike I prefer indian more than Harley..
You can tell they are a profitable company and are putting the money back into the bikes
They did inform us that Polaris and Indian Motorcycle are profitable.
tpms! thats wild!
Doesn’t come with the sensors on the wheels, unfortunately. But the feature is there.
Would the Indian saddlebags fit on the rear fenders ?
The saddlebags for the Scout, yes. ‘25 Scouts all use the same subframe so everything is interchangeable. Some parts from the previous gen carry over too.
Thanks B.B
would you buy another v rod?
Nah.. been there, done it. I wasn’t a huge fan of the seating position but I felt wildly special riding it. Great bike for what it was.
when are they coming to the dealerships?
Already showing up at some. May 100%
My yamaha bolt is crying right now 😂
Don't do em like that lol
love this bike, definetly wanna buy it soon,, but i do not like the sound of the exhaust tho
Yeah, most people don’t. 😅
Where did it go cast iron chassis?
2025. Steel
Prefer a plain analogue speedo - l can imagine the amount of red light warnings that will be popping up on that on a weekly basis. All you need is mph and fuel.

Is this bike too heavy as a first bike?
Nah. It’s tailored to beginner riders with a low center of gravity and low seat height.
That digital screen is so slow. Gone are the days of just start and go
Doesn’t bother me besides the navigation which was improved. The screen isn’t a requirement. Not sure why people assume it is.
How much is this?
www.indianmotorcycle.com/en-us/scout-motorcycles/
Dashboard software so laggy/slow, especially the boot up time
Agreed. Pre-production model for what it’s worth.
I thought this was an Indian review being done by Jon Jones lol
Mans a lot more fit and lethal than I am. 🌚
I have a chief 111 gotta say I am not a fan of how those motors look no detail.
Needs some powder coat : )
The new tank design is ugly, heck i prefer the look before 2025 ed.
same
Same
Good thing the design department doesn’t care what you think then
Gotta say, and i dont know why im not noticing it until this video, but im not diggin the aesthetics of that new engine tho . . . Seems just too plain to me.

It was a known issue for these pre-production bikes. To my knowledge, hasn’t been sorted fully.
@@BrandonBicasso , yeah, that's sad...
Nice bike but not really feeling the sound...
I love this bike but got it sounds disgusting with the stock slips 🤮
Def a lot of room for improvement.
