New Indian Scout

[jimmytee]

I like it. 100 HP from 69 cu. " water cooled V-twin and less than 600 lbs with a 25" seat height.

Oh ,and it starts  at $10999

[Wetrudgeon]

Agree.  It looks a bit "unconventional," but if it really weighs less than 600lbs and the motor makes 100hp, then the fun factor will be there.  We will be pleased to have a close look and test ride in the near future.

We trudge on.

Yes, maybe, just maybe, finally a V-twin to get excited about. We'll see. Like you said, at 558 lbs wet and if really 100 hp, It should be a hoot to ride.

Never have been a V Twin fan but, I do like what I see and read about this bike.   Worth taking a closer look.

Reminds me of...

Yes the flat six is what kept me when I bought the F6B. That bike ,however, if the power/ weight figures are correct, will be really quick. Like some women,Fun to ride most likely, but not fit for my long term relationship requirements....

The V-twin redeemed?  Still, it needs bags, windshield and passenger seat.

[Michvalk]

It looks almost exactly like a V-Rod

[Sorcerer]

Is that HP at the crank or rear wheel.

I'm going to Indian demo days Aug 15th and look forward to riding their new bikes. I went to the new Indian dealership in Olathe Ks on a Saturday and they said no test rides on Saturday's. I was dissappointed and thought it was kind of odd not letting prospective new buyers try the bikes out. I will say they were very polite and they said they were sorry but they just didn't have the staff to handle Saturday test rides.

Should blister the 1/4 mile pretty good for a cruiser!

Hmm.


Well, the soft bags sure didn't help IMHO but, as has been said many times before, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.    I like it naked but not so much with the bags being offered.   

[Wavalk]

It looks like a nice bike for a good price.  I have to wonder if its Indians attempt to flood the market with Indians.  It would probably make a great bike for a new rider.   I hope its bigger than Harleys Sportster.  Sitting on a sportster feels like your riding a mini-bike compared to our Valkyries. Unfortunately It only has a 3.3 gallon tank.

I am a big Frederic Remington fan.

I have this Indian Scout (and other prints) on my walls.

[G-Man]

It seems like it a rather small (overall size) bike.  Like the size of a Shadow 750 or just a tad bigger.  Anyone over 6 feet tall will feel like they're riding a toy.

[F6Dave]

I like it a lot.  Indian (Polaris) is looking like a formidable alternative to H-D.  If they make a sportier version of the Scout they could be stealing customers from a lot of brands.

[BF]

Honda could learn a little from Indian on style AND price.  AKA....the new Valyrie.
