Hey Yammie, I think there’s a scammer using your logo in the comments trying to get everyone to call them.. every comment I’ve seen is getting a reply either saying thanks for watching let’s talk or something about put on a short list for prizes… just want to make sure you’re aware…
Do the scout rogue please. Thanks
Any way to raise those foot pegs to get a better lean angle? Or do the pipes still limit your lean in the corners?
I’ll save you some time. Hi, I’m yammie. Only sport bikes are good but the Bobber is kinda ok if your old. Now I’m going to talk until RUclips pays me.
...and I'm gonna spend 40hrs a week deleting negative comments off my channel after I dumped my best employee because I spend too much time behind a computer 🤣☯️
I rode a busa many years and love sport bikes but I think this bike is great. Don't have to be old man. What's that crap?
@@michaelderenne9838 naw man, what I’m saying is if you watch yammie’s videos they are all the same. After a year of watching his videos I feel his opinion is only track ready sport bikes are good and any other bike is for when you are ready to retire. After that he pushes his affiliates and products until the end of the video. I don’t even watch his videos anymore. Spite’s Corner is the motorcycle content for me.
I'm thinking you might still be wearing Pull-Ups with a comment like that. You haven't graduated yet buddy
Lots of channels are geared towards cruisers or just sport bikes. Yammies likes sport bikes. So what, go find a cruiser channel then. BTW I prefer cruisers, I actually think most sport bikes are ugly as hell but I still like this channel. I'm not a snowflake
COVID lockdowns hit and I ran out to buy my first motorcycle at 30 years old. I test drove nearly every motorcycle I could get my hands on after getting my license and fell in love with the Indian Scout Bobber. I got the matte black 1133cc ABS variant, immediately slapped a performance air intake and radical radius pipes on her with the floating saddle seat and have been ripping up the city ever since. It's about 111 hp, loud af, and I often get people pulling up next to me hanging out their window yelling at me how sexy my bike is. Basically it's a stool with handles mounted to a rocketship. I've been extremely satisfied with my motorcycling experience so far, and look forward to building a collection.
I just got a used scout bobber. Also matte black and also with radical radius pipes. That bike is a beast. I need to either get my shocks adjusted or just upgrade my suspension
I just get a kick out of your comment.
I have owned a Scout Bobber for 2 years. Dedicated my own channel to it. Obviously I'm biased, but it is a fantastic bike, and I can appreciate your perspective on their history as a company. I have spent a few thousand in upgrades making it scream "me", but even from the factory it has a lot to offer.
I follow your channel, love your color scheme! Sweet bike!
@@Mayjay87 thank you so much!
Just saw this comment and your channel sounds interesting. I'm going over right now just to subscribe
@@dixee6498 thanks for checking it out!
I am planning to buy one, I am glad to read what you wrote.
Rode a Honda Rebel 500 for about a year. Then I upgraded to a Scout Bobber. I liked the Rebel. There is nothing wrong with the bike, it’s solid. Reliable. But there is something about the Scout that makes me excited. It’s the looks. It’s the way it feels planted to the road and make me enjoy cornering and acceleration. The bobber is a bike I love. You can’t measure that. But I’d recommend looking for that kind of emotional connection. Because let’s face it: for most of us the motorcycle isn’t purely a means for transportation. It’s very much a toy too. So get the one you actually love.
i couldn't have said it better myself
@@lukecrosby615 Nor me.
I currently have a Rebel 500 and considering upgrading to a Scout Bobber. If it’s not too much of a bother, how does the suspension compare between the two and what’s the gearing like between the two? One of my biggest gripes with the Rebel is how short each gear is.
@@The_Mewster69 The Bobber is definitely on the stiffer side. I'm a 6 foot / 210 LBS guy. Not exactly ginormous but hardly petite. Riding over manhole covers can feel a bit like being ejected from the seat. I upgraded to the official Scout comfort seat -- massive improvement. The stock seat is very slim. I'd say the Rebel was comparable, but the Rebel is lighter and feels more flimsy on highways. Scout remains planted.
In terms of gearing I like the Scout more than the Rebel, but it's also a bit of an apples to oranges comparison, given that the Bobber is an 1100 CC bike -- it has quite a bit more oomph than the Rebel 500, so the gears do a lot more for you to begin with. In terms of max speed, I end up around ~70mph, maybe 80mph. Just like the Rebel the lack of fairing/windshield makes higher speeds rougher. As a result I don't feel like I ever exceeded the gearing. Despite the high CCs it is still a cruiser, so don't expect crazy acceleration. But massively better than the Rebel. And if you're used to a super sport where you can pull first gear all the way to 100 mph then the gearing of the Bobber will feel VERY limiting.
Disclaimer: I'm about to sell my Bobber because I mostly ride my other two bikes now (BMW GS 1250 and BMW S1000RR). I still love the looks of the Bobber but my riding style has changed. When I do touring, I prefer the GS. And when I want to be sporty, I prefer the S1000RR. It is of course an apples to oranges comparison (both beemers are 30K+ bikes and for a very different riding style), so I wouldn't hold that against the Scout.
@@ImmoLandwerth Woah that is a very detailed explanation that I didn’t expect but greatly appreciate nonetheless. I think the Rebel is a great bike as it is but I’m just wanting a little more that it can’t deliver but I think the Scout Bobber should be able to. Based on your experience with it, I think it’d be a smart choice as my upgrade.
I bought a 2021 Scout Bobber in April and couldn't be happier. Ive put over 7000 miles on it this summer with many hours in the saddle. I'd say the only must is to get a more comfortable seat and it badly needs better rear suspension. Everything else just remember the style of bike you're riding
🤘🏼
Shocked that he didn’t compare the scout bobber to the triumph bobber. A worthy competitor that I think gets overlooked.
Because his content is crap and not well researched
That seems like closest real comp to me and was hoping for it.
My first bike was a 18 scout it was a beautiful mean light weight missile it’s a great bike and light enough to screw up and put a foot down even at 10 mph in the rain and still save the bike it’s a damn great bike and I only got a chief to have bags It’s only thing I want to ride but I need to carry crap here n there when I’m doing day trips
I got rid of my 2020 HD and bought a 2022 Scout Bobber in March. I absolutely love it. Like others, I changed the seat and exhaust. I drive from Dallas to Waco a few times a month on it. SOOOO much better than my HD.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
what Harley did you have, I'm tryna decide weather to get a Harley or a Indian
@@thewanderingcoin don't drink the Kool aid. Get an Indian. Although I'm biased
Thanks for the video. Have been riding my 2021 Scout Bobber for about a year now (came over from the old school Nighthawk 750, then the Honda Shadow) and it’s a fantastic bike. It’s my daily commute bike and weekend rides. I’m 6’2 and am perfectly comfortable on the bike. Only upgrades I added where the headlight and passenger seat. Removed the first baffle on each pipe to improve the sound. The bike definitely turns heads, rides great, looks great and since I try to avoid potholes and large burns, the suspension hasn’t been an issue for me.
IMO it’s the best looking and riding bike you can buy today for under 14k brand new. The attention to detail is excellent also with the branding. Only ‘upgrade’ I’d like to see become available, is the same ride command gauge as the Chief’s have.
Bro, please. The people need you to do a video on 2022 triumph bonneville bobber. Even if u can compare it to the scout bobber.
Why do you need to hear this guy read the wiki of a bike he's never seen in person?
Love my new scout bobber.
The only thing I’m looking to do with it right away is put on some 10 inch mini apes. It completely changes the seating position and makes it perfect in terms of confront. It does ok with the stock handlebars but I’ve sat on one w/ mini apes and wow! It’s so comfortable.
I have a 2018 scout bobber and it’s awesome. Harsh ride until I swapped the suspension with legend front and rear and it’s sooo much better. However with the compromised riding position and my arms being on the shorter size the reach is pretty dramatic, and my bum goes numb relatively quickly. It’s so much fun and a basic yet visceral, and beautiful.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
2021 Scout Bobber ABS, still stock other than a medium wind screen. You, and others, are correct, the rear suspension is unpleasant and perhaps too hard to be safe. Doesn't take much, a depressed manhole cover, and it can bounce a rider off the seat. Working on what to swap in, otherwise delighted. Wasn't expecting all admirers who stop to look and comment.
Have a 2020 scout bobber twenty (variant with wire wheels, tractor seat, mini apes) and it is a great bike. Mods and build have been documented on my youtube channel. I've had zero problems with 2 years of ownership and many miles and smiles.
I've got to be honest : I do love the look and the power of the Indian scout. That's all I have to say.
I just rode an Indian Scout, and it was a fun experience. I can see riding it for miles.
Video starts around 4:00
I started riding with the Indian Scout bobber. I love everything about it except the seat 😂. When I first saw the bike, it was love at first sight! To me, it looked like a classic old bike with a modern touch, just slap on some white walls and you got yourself a sweeeeet looking iron steed. I already have 10k miles on it, I can’t get enough of it 👍🏼 definitely worth 15k walkout price
I bought a 2021 Scout Bobber since I had sp much fun riding for 2 years on my 2018 Scout Bobber. Sure, its a bit uncomfortable when I hit an unexpected pothole here and there. But overall, I love being low to the ground while experiencing a smooth rumble. Oh... and people stop me constantly to ask questions and take pics.
By the way... Im 6'2 and as long as I dodge the potholes, my body is completely at ease my enjoying the music playing on my helmet speakers.
I have a 2022 Scout bobber and I love it! Upgraded a few things including exhaust it looks and sounds awesome. Not the most comfortable bike and unforgiving on bumps with the slammed suspension but it's a fun and fast little cruiser
Love my 2020 Scout Bobber. Switched out the horrific stock seat for a Corbin, went with the V&H slashcuts for exhaust, and upgraded the rear shocks with the Super Shox that are designed exclusively for the ISB. All that made it a much better bike, but it’s still not an ideal long distance bike, but that’s not what it’s designed for. It’s amazing for tearing around town and short hopping to the beach. Definitely what I was looking for.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Did the Super Shox change the seat height at all? A lot of the vids I've seen and owners I've talked to said the height increased a bit after they switched out their shocks
@@jamesmin1239 If they increased the seat height, it was so little I did not notice. If you call Super Shox they’ll actually walk you thru everything and recommend just what you’ll need. I was very pleased with the service and the product transformed the bike.
Lol, I once heard a very smart quote. "NO man is ever 5'11.."
I have been wanting a scout ever since I saw Polaris debut it back in 2015. So in 2021, as an early bday present to myself, I got a scout bobber in burnt orange. I love the hell out of this thing. I do not regret buying it. For anyone looking to get one, I recommend swapping out the seat or getting a seat cover. The seat is not made for long rides. Everything else is up to your preference
They rip, trust. Swap the seat swap the shocks and it’s surprisingly nimble and quick. Edit: Throw a loud pipe on there so your neighbors can enjoy too.
Definitely need to change the seat on mine lol, what kind of shocks should i go with?
@@redditution9909 So I installed the Fox adjustable ones, they are easy to set for rider weight. Even though the front forks still need a swap, the difference is very noticeable. Also, I grabbed the Mustang seat
So just buy an octane
@@mortalterrorRE i'm thinking about getting the syndicate step up seat, do the fox shocks raise the rear a lot?
How do I do this? Looking into getting one as my first bike 🚴🏽
Thanks for the video Yammie- I thought you presented a pretty good summary for the bike. I ride a variation of the scout; rogue 60. Kinda the little brother of the reg scout at a 2500 discount in cost. After riding it near daily and adjusting it to fit my 6’3 frame, it works. It’s not without a few flaws, mostly small personal preferences but so be it. I think they are excellent bikes for newbs or intermediate riders looking to “sport cruise”
Once you tame the smaller 60, a tune and some aftermarket upgrades make it a long lasting enjoyable bike- with a v-twin cruiser, grabbing some torque and revs and HP can be very noticeable with a tune. Overall I love it as a daily bike but would like a dual sport down the road too. My wife is about to become a ninja so we will look awesome and unexpectedly different cruising together down the road-
Got the Scout Rogue and couldnt be happier with it. Its everything in a cruiser I have ever wanted. And its engine is crazy sporty and quick. Not your average cruiser
the scout has got to be about the lowest reving ice I've ever seen. 83 rpm is really something
Wigwam
Forgot to mention the Truimph Bobber
I've been really waiting for you guys to make a video about the Scout Bobber. I've been riding the bike since February 2022 and couldn't be happier. Of course, some changes had to be made: footrests, exhaust, cosmetics. All in all this is a wonderful bike, very beautiful and powerful. I don't want to give her away anymore.
That explanation at the beginning of the spot is spot on about me. Ride a Hayabusa many years and ready for something a bit more docile
Love my bobber! I’m 6’3” and it takes some part swapping but it always gets compliments ever time I ride…..don’t think the rebel would….
I've had My 2021 Indian Scout Bobber in White Smoke for over a year ,Love it 💟
I bought my Indian scout bobber probably two months ago it is my first motorcycle I have ever owned and I am in love with it
Had a Honda 500 for a year. Now have a 21 Scout 60, not the bobber version. I love it and has plenty of power for my needs and is still fun to ride in some twisty areas. Seem to have quite a bit of aftermarket support, although not as much as Harley, but still plenty of options to choose from. I do seem to get a bit of a snub at bike night so there is that...
Best purchase I made was the scout bobber. Not a fan of Harley and what they making now. People will hate on Indian being built by Polaris but it’s made in the US still and is high quality.
Got the Scout Bobber Sixty as my first bike. Love it.
Got my ISB, in matte black of course lol, about 3 weeks ago and I love it. It's a bike I always wanted and I honestly have no real complaints. I'm 5'6" with hobbit legs and its a great fit. I already changed out the exhaust to the Freedom Performance 2-1 Combat and it does the engine justice. The stock exhaust didn't do it at all. I've done other minor changes, but my main concern was the exhaust. Eventually I'll change the shocks out since the stock ones can really do a number on the ol' coccyx 😅.
Can’t wait for the day I’ll get Indian scout bobber as my first bike
I beg to differ. I think the new Harley Sportster S is the bike Harley built to compete. It’s slightly more powerful then the scout and has a more modern speedo.
I’ve had an Indian scout since 2017 and I still love it. I don’t think I’ll ever sell it. The engine is bullet proof. Polaris did a great job with the Indian brand. They appealed to the younger generation that knows Harley as “an old man’s bike.”
why 720p?
A spring tractor seat on the scout bobber makes the ride suck less if you’re taller
If I had to do it over I would have went with the Scout vs the Rebel1100. The Scout looks and sounds beefier than a Rebel 1100.
Rode my dad's 2020 Scout bobber. Felt super comfy but slow. Not the pull I like from my MT10. Nice bike though
Most bikes will feel slow compared to an mt10 with that beautiful mean crossplane engine on the naked platform…. It would be hard to find the same amount of pull on a cruiser style bike unless you maybe looked at something like the Yamaha VMax…. But then again the scout has 100hp verses the vmax roughly 200hp
As a bobber owner, I’m honestly surprised you didn’t touch on the seating quality, and I don’t mean that necessarily in a good way. Sure, stock seats in general on most bikes aren’t really anything to write home about, but combined with the bobbers already low shocks, you feel every literally every bump, and that’s not a great feeling for cruising. If you’re in the market for a bobber, I’d definitely recommend looking into getting a much comfier seat as soon as possible, your lower back will thank you. Signed a 27 year old squid 😅
Bought my first bike couple months ago (street twin 900 22). My next bike will probably be a Harley 48 or a scout bobber. Just love that low profile cruiser style bike.
Had a 22 bobber for about a year had a pv3 on it as well as Reinhart slip ons was a fun bike but traded it in for an ftr as it was too low and found myself struggling with bumps and corners awesome bike though miss it tons
Thunderbird storm sooo good!
The Triumph Bonneville Bobber or Speedmaster would be a good competition. Similar price and torque figures.
And it’s the best looking. Idk how they missed that one.
I own the triumph bobber and wife has the scout. Triumph feels more torquey, shifter is more positive feeling. Indian isn't bad by any means, but the riding position is a bit to be desired.
@@jongushue3286 I have the Speedmaster myself. You made a good choice.
I threw on piggy back shocks a better seat and I love it. I've had my 2022 scout bobber maroon smoke color for 3 weeks and already over 500 miles. I cannot complain it's everything I've ever wanted!
Why no Bonneville Bobber comparison?
I'm more of a sport bike guy but I wouldn't mind giving this bike a test ride.
Since they’re so many Indian owners here. Anyone got recommendations for gear to buy the bike if it drops? I never see anything of that sort online for Indian motorcycles
2019 scout 60 new rider no issues. Love my bike.
You forgot a letter…. “S”. It’s not just “too low” but its really “too S-low”
The bike makes you look badass
Honestly.... I just googled this shit. Was looking for good end bike for fun, not a razor. Browsed through auctions etc and some "random" company came up. Looked nice. Turns out it has a history. MOst likely I will buy one - though, no idea what "bobber" is :)
EDIT: ok, I will most likely boy one given how OP sounds of about those, secondly, YT did good job and suggested second vid from this channel and I know more or less what bobber is :)
Bought my Scout bobber new in 2019. Had a few issues with the actual bike but my biggest problems have been with the dealership. Looking to trade into the ADV bike category next season
Got one..... my very first Motocycle I LOVE IT .......#2 Dream bike Hayabusa
When he just described you in the first minute of the video perfectly…..
Can yall do the new scout rogue please.
I gotta get back to riding again I feel like I got my license for nothing , I had to sell my 650 v-star about 3 years ago and I regret it
Enjoying my ‘18 ISB, but yeah automatically needed to change seat, battery, and exhaust to make it perfect.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
👈🏽Scout Bobber Content 😏
I bought a 2021 Scout about 4 months ago, already put over 2,500 miles on it, and I absolutely love it. First bike, and I may or may not have spent a couple thousand to "make it mine" (highway bars, saddlebags, seats, and a batwing fairing, all OEM, and vance & hines slash cut exhaust). It's solid, runs great, and has some serious power when you twist the throttle. The longer rear suspension travel really is incredible compared to the Bobber. I've made a few trips, even made a 500 mile day once. Only thing I wish Indian had done differently is a cruise control. It's really a great bike.
Curious take on Indian history. In what universe do you live? Interesting
It looks like the Scout Rogue is the way to go.
Update; I bought a 2019 Scout Bobber in Black.
Now Yammie can learn to pronounce "wig wam.
I currently have an ISB. I'm trading it in for an Aprilia RS660
I am 6 02 and looking to buy my first bike. Do you think the Scout Bobber is too small?
You will drop it and never financially recover. Plus it wont teach you how to be a really good motorcyclist that can stay alive in the same way getting on like a klx300 or a grom 125 or a rebel 300 or the old rebel 250s do. You actjally get to ring them out and lean them over do emergency brsking and swervi g passing an msf doing uturns 360s in tight spaces. A scout 1200 wont do that besrly as easily and youll probably drop it and never financially recover
Nice review…fyi, the “a” in wigwam is a short “a”…more like
“wigwahm”
Man forgot about the Bonneville Bobber
My wife had a 20' scout Bobber twenty.
Very powerful bike. Beautiful in every way.
The rear suspension is way too hard and the seat is unbearable.
But it's a great bike otherwise.
The outro is inaudible...
An off brand Harley! They are older than Harley!
Came from a ZX6R to a 2022 Scout Bobber. Fuck, I am that guy…
I literally was going to buy Indian Scout last week, but Triumph offered a better deal for their bobber.
Also, Indian's model naming is stupid. Confusing af.
No need for 4-5 word names of the same motorcycle model
I can see comparing Indian to harley davidson, but if you you going to throw in a wild card like honda why wouldn't you mention triumph and the bonneville bobber?
I was just searching videos abt the bobber hoping id find something what a coincidence
👋🏻
Off brand Harley, yeah right Harley is in a down hill on sales for a reason
So your telling me that if I leave a comment telling you that I want a scout bobber in the giveaway you will consider it?
cute bike :3 ❤
Gotta love the straight up biased review lol.
After going back and forth for a while between a scout and rebel 1100, I went with the rebel. Best decision I have ever made. Most of the people looking at a scout really want a rebel 1100. The modern technology and feel of the bike make it so much more fun and enjoyable to ride. Idk if this makes sense but, the unpredictability and way rebel sits when you get on it is just amazing. I agree the scout looks a little better from the factory but after a few aesthetic mods I would take my rebel over most modern cruisers. +Cruise control, the rider modes, and the abs at a lower price than the base scout 60 is pretty hard to beat. Biased opinion, and I still love the scout but I am incredibly happy with my decision after 3k miles!
Yams!! I’ll admit, I couldn’t find the link to your prior video on “what makes a Bobber”, so may be speaking outta turn…
But what of the Sportster 1250 S as a comparison?? Yeah it’s about a grand more money than the Nightster (if that?), but has plenty more HP and ft lbs than the Indian. And is def along these lines of “neuvo retro muscle cruiser” (or something like that?)
I do love mine 😊
Dang bro I gotta comment again smh
yes I need one
Do iitt
"Offbrand Harley Davidson"
Nice try, Hoss. Indian came first Harley copied them 2 years later.
Can you do a “so you want a Daytona 675”
Noob
I'm listening to this while I'm riding on my '21 Bobber Twenty!
"Coconads" was right there lol 🤏🏻
do a video on backfiring, like how your decision to cut your copilot backfired 🤣
Nice friendship windmill
2019 Bobber was my first bike... Some people said it's too powerful for a newbie but I actually think I could use just a little more power. I might use a programmer and upgrade the intake. But yes, it is a great ride and with my Vance and Hines exhaust, it just sounds so sweet. Get a lot of people stopping to check it out and ask about it too.
My first bike was a 1972 Norton Commando 750cc when I got out of the army in 1974. So I say go for it and have fun!
Ah I’ve been waiting for my favorite cruiser of all time to be reviewed. Scout Bobber is an awesome motorcycle and I wish more cruisers followed suit, in terms of power, looks, handling, price etc. Even a used Victory Octane is one hell of a bike, which is what the Bobber is based off of.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
I'm a "been ridin' 30 years" squid. After a test ride I bought a brand new scout in 2019. I sat on a scout bobber and I don't know why anyone would choose it over the original scout other than for looks. The big fenders (when you get caught in the rain) and extra inch of rear suspension travel make the Scout a much better choice as a daily driver. 30,000 hard miles on mine, and not a single mechanical issue. BTW programmer/intake/pipes really wake theese engines up. Just my $.02 on the scout.
Unsubscribe to this guy, go look at the last Video before this one
Not everyone is a boomer that needs to be drowned out in chrome.
I’m a “been riding one year” squid and I 100% agree. I love my 2019 Scout, got it after I outgrew my starter bike. Considered a Rebel 1100 but I sat on one and didn’t love it. Also sat on a bobber and wondered why other than the look.
@@tinman3586 funny how he didn't mention chrome at all. Actually said the bobber looks better. Said the scout was more practical.
@@jd-xj3ew I've been swapping the chrome and cheap cast steel parts for flat black and raw billet.
So where does the Triumph Bobber fit in?
As a former hockey player and guitarist (no anchor tattoo though) I feel personally attacked 🤣 That being said, I fell in love with the Indian Scout Bobber the first time I saw one. When Indian released the Rogue I decided the Rogue was more practical for my riding needs than the Bobber. After owning a black smoke Rogue for almost two months with an upgraded seat and exhaust I have ZERO regrets owning this bike. Power, comfort, ergonomics, looks, sound, this bike has it all!
The Scout seems like a perfect 2nd bike. Not great for distance, but would be a blast ripping around town.
Bought a 2022 bobber for my first bike with zero experience and am in love with it
@@Scootertin as your first bike how has the engine size/power been treating ya? Is it too much for a new guy or very user friendly?
I got a storm blue Indian Scout Rogue last month! I love it! (It’s my first bike).
I bought a matte green scout bobber20 two years ago and I’ve loved every minute of it. My last bike was a 1984 HD Iron head…I can’t even begin to portray a comparison because they are two different machines, but I definitely enjoy riding my Indian much more. Thanks for the video I enjoyed it. 👍
