This is probably my favorite Indian Scout! I love the look and feel of the bobber, but I might just change the seat. That is my only issue really. What do you think about the Indian Motorcycle Scout Bobber?

I’m thinking about one of these for my first bike. My brain is suggesting a Rebel 500 but my soul demands a Scout Bobber.
me too man i was all for yamaha just like two day's ago and i began asking myself why do you rlly want a bike? to go fast in the twisties and probably get hurt? Nah that is not my ride i want to enjoy. I want to cruise i said to myself. And Here i am looking at Cruisers and Bobbers. And liking what i see. so probally gonna go either indian or rebel but i think im gonna go with the Indian scout 60. Add some stuff and that baby is your forever bike. Unless you get married and then divorce and the ex takes the bike;p.
@@markskawai I see this recommended as a beginner bike a lot. What makes you think it's so dangerous?
pro tip : you can watch movies on flixzone. Been using them for watching all kinds of movies lately.
@Callan Kellan Yup, I have been watching on Flixzone for since november myself :D
@@michaelorton1741 beginner (Learner License) bikes in Australia are legally bound to no bigger than 650cc, I agree an 1100 is not something for a beginner
560lbs and 100hp. 0-60 sub 4. Yea...it can handle the interstate...heh
For me I could not agree with you more. I think I’m finished if you ever get finished upgrading. Seat was first. Went with mustang. Exhaust was second, went with Vance and Hines 4in slash cut. I ride it everywhere I can now with no butt or back issues and cars certainly know when I’m next to them. Great review.
I love my Scout 60.
1st things I changed were the grips and the seat. I put a Mustang seat with backrest and a sheepskin seat pad. 300 mile days have been no issue for me. I am 6'1 225 for reference.
You ride solo on that Scout.
How's the gas mileage on that?
@@jimthvac100 - Hello govt troll.
Great video! My dad was thinking of riding again and fell in love with the bobber. This video really helps with the decision making 👍👍👍👍
Completely in love with the Scout Bobber. I’m a motorcycle virgin but hopefully I pull the trigger next year. Thanks for the video dude!
Anytime dude!
Did you end up pulling the trigger and getting one ? I eyed them since 2018 and finally got my 2020 bobber and have no regrets. It is my first bike ever, not overpowering for a new rider like many say.
FatStogie I didn’t unfortunately. In the process of buying a 2020 Hellcat but still really want one. How’s yours?
KO Films that’s awesome, A hellcat! Very nice. My bobber is great. Riding it is so much fun. The only modification I will ever do is a muffler swap. Even tho the scout is more of a inner city bike, I take it out on long trips all the time. Hopefully one day you make one yours. You’ll love it.
@@stogie0608 thanks for your update. I’m looking at the scout 60 or the bobber currently. I really don’t like forward controls though, but hopefully test ride one soon
Just bought a 19 indian scout bobber......I know it was the right purchase because I can't stop looking at it
Were you able to find any used from a dealership? Been looking for a couple weeks now and doesn’t seem like any dealerships carry the older years.
Currently deployed, but I love watching your videos and because of your awesome reviews imma purchase the Indian scout as my first bike when I come back home. Keep up the great work!! 👏
Javi loves_nuggets make sure you at least show your face at the Harley shop first
Ray McCarthy I’m not that interested at the moment but I do love to admire good bikes
Thank you Dan!
I so want one! I'm shooting for the spring 2019. I can't wait!!
Did you get it?
The Indian scout looks awesome as hell. I was thinking of going with a HD sportster for my first bike. But now I’m set with getting a scout
The Scout is soooo badass. Try one out
+Slippschitts Hey take that shit somewhere else snowflake
Way to go!
Slippschitts Hey get that stupid snowflake shit out of here. It’s a motorcycle, there’s nothing racist about it. Like how dumb can you be
I bought a 2018 scout 60 this past July. My first bike. Its awesome. Best new bike for beginners. If you live where rain is frequent. Change the tires from the dunlops to Michelin commander 2.
Thanks for the review Dan. I've seen alot of people complain about the seat on this bike in their reviews. But it is a great looking bike.
I have really been looking into this bike as my first bike,been bouncing back and forth with the Indian scout bobber and the Honda shadow phantom.thank you for your awesome review
My 83 XLS Sporty is getting long in the tooth, and this looks like what I'm going to get. Thanks ☺
Thanks for addressing the Interstate riding!
Nice review Dan. I'm 58 and riding a beast sport bike. But going to move to AZ in 2020 and been really considering a cruiser after my move. The Scout Bobber looks like a great bike to get started into cruisers. I live in SoCal and am not going to like not being able to lane split. A cruiser might just relax me enough to get through it, lol.
So i own an mt-09 for about a couple of weeks now. Every day, when i drive my truck home, i see my neighbor's white scout. i looked into it and saw the scout bobber model. I think I want this as my first cruiser. I've owned 2 other yamaha sport bikes before the mt-09. the scout bobber looks sexy af
Im the same, own an MT10 SP, as soon as i saw this scout bobber i want one as a weekend cruiser and keep mt10 as daily rider. Ive never owned a cruiser but i think ill get one this year as my first.
Subbed! I'm thinking of buying. Thanks for the review.

You'll have to explain to your friends about protective wear 😉
I’m riding Yamaha FC-07 for 6 months and plan to change to scout bobber or fat bob
What is you recommendation based on your test riding?
I got a 2018 scout bobber when it came out. Corbin seat had to be put on it and it's sooooo much better. Awesome bike with a new seat.
Dude take a picture of it and tag my Instagram I would love to see it
@@DanDanTheFireman I'll take one after work and tag you.
Awesome bro. Send me a private message with it too. I get like a hundred notifications an hour LOL but I want to see it! The barber is such a badass looking Bike Dude. I'm glad you're having fun on it
So do you recommend the bobber over the scout? Am seriously confused which one to get
@@mentehe1 they are essentially the same bike. The suspension on the bobber is about an inch shorter. The seat is swapped. The fenders are chopped, front and rear. The license plate holder gets side mounted. The mirrors are swapped and end mounted. And the gauge is black on the face instead of white. Pretty much everything else is the same.
Would you recommend the Indian Scout Bobber or Scout for a beginner bike? I'm looking at getting one for my first bike.
Hi Dan, were you able to confirm if the bike you were on in fact was equipped with the reduced reach handlebars or were they the standard ones?
I am also a sporty rider, mine is much older it’s a 2001. Wanted something I could gauge my interest with before making a big investment. Love riding so I’m going to spoil myself with a new Indian! Went in the other day just to sit on the bobber and see how it felt (I’m 6’1” 200lbs) so its a much different thing for me. Didn’t have time to test ride just wanted to throw a leg over. Well there was a chief dark horse right by it. I sat on it as well and thinking I’m going to have to pony up the extra $5k for one of those! Will know for sure after I test ride them both. Thanks for your great vids and good luck in the upcoming courses!
Is it a stiff ride? Can the shocks be adjusted to make it more plush? Likewise can the foot pegs be moved back a bit? At your height (I'm 5'8) do you feel a bit 'stretched forward' and uncomfortable?
Man I love the way the scout looks and wanted it as my first, but I'm 6'3 and did not feel comfortable. But 100 horses, it's nice.
Which bike you ended up with...? I love these ones but im 6'2
I'm 5'6...this is the right channel..:D
Ricky Rocket got mid controls on his bobber and made a vid. I use the Vance and Hines 2 in 2 grenades w/ S&S intake and power commander. I get a lot of attention. These bikes are amazing!
Did you find out if the bike you were riding was the one with the reduced reach controls? I'm about your size but don't have an indian dealer near me that i can try these bikes out at.
Hey quick question:
Could getting new handlebars on it make it less aggressive?
Do you think the scout bobber is a "better" bike than the victory octane? In terms of performance, ergonomics reliability? I know victory is kaput now, but I'm leaning towards one or the other.
Hows it going Dan? Love your stuff !
Been asking around on a lot of channels and I hope you can give me a more detailed view on my decision(s).
Im 6'2, 80kgs(150-170lbs). Zero riding experience. Last time I was on a bike I didn't go over 25kph. However I am aware of the clutch systems on bikes, balancing etc. I don't want to go through the trading in route, buy one bike then trade in for another as experience grows. What im concerned with is pricing etc.
Firstly I wanted an 883, then a 1200 - due to body dimensions. Then I thought it would be best to get a breakout 2019, however that is a little expensive and unnecessary in the beginning of riding. Harley has a great cult feel to it. SO now I am even more confused due to the 48, 1200, and Roadster HD vs. Scout Bobber - I want to ride cross country, and I think changing the saddle on either bike would do the trick. I want the best for aesthetics and comfort. But which bike has become even more difficult as I go through more material online.
Reminder ill be riding in Europe - So I would love anyones input on this and as yours as well Dan !
Again love your videos !
Do you think someone 6ft1 would be comfortable on the bobber? The only reviews I've seen have been from little guys
Nice review of the bike..ive been looking at them im 6'1 alitte tall but the bike still feels good.lots of power..after riding the Indian bobber..and your sportster if you didn't have a bike witch one of the two would you buy?
I demoed one yesterday, the only thing I didn't like was how easy it scraped in a turn
I just bought my 2019 indian bobber a couple months ago and I'm 6'1, I love the fact that it sits lower. To me it's more comfortable at the height it is but I do agree about the seat. I'm looking into a replacment, I slide on my seat and it's not very shock absorbing.
KILL_EM_DEAD 6 1 1/2 here. If you can, have the dealer slap on the extended seat and try that. Also the Indian floorboards are expensive but a very big quality of life upgrade.
Hey Dan, whats the motorcycle jacket and pants you're wearing? I need to get some gear and I like the kevlar thing vs. the traditional leather.
I'm looking at teh Vulcan S, Yammy Bolt, and Scout...Bike courses should be tax decuctable as well as insurance discount?
I 3ant to take another msf training before getting the scout bobber. Can’t wait
I have the feeling that you were riding exactly the same bike I did the test drove during the Indian Motorcycle demo event in Scottsdale, AZ. All flat black paint with upgraded headlight and a saddle black bag in one side and Missouri License Plate. 😅
Yes, the Scouts have three options for the handle bars (extended, normal, reduced), and three options for the controls (extended, normal, reduced) making a total of nine combinations in just that area. BUT, they also have two seat options like the thicker reduced reach seat that pushes the rider forward. With all three reduced options in play somebody really short could ride pretty easily.
They really looked into alot of cool things. Customization is King.
I can’t wait to get mid-controls for my scout bobber.
I’m hoping to get more lean angle before scraping the pegs and also will get me out of that “V” shape position and more straight.
I scrape pegs all day err day haha
@@ridin_low193 with the seat height as low as it is I'm not sure how you would go about that and increase clearance at the same time. You would have to fold your legs like you were in a full squat.
hooahayes yea mid controls are for most especially taller people. But mid controls do give you more lean angle, because of where there positioned you can lean a lil farther before scraping pegs over the stock peg position. Also better position for my feet when doing wheelies.
Really lookomg into these biks because i hear about their reliability compared to Harley's. With harley i would love a Fat Boy Lo/sport but they're consistentlly expensive and are actually much heavier than this. Which isnt a problem for me, but its a reliability issue...now this bike....
This is a nice bike. Gonna test ride one and if i get one, im gonna get a slip on exhaust
Would you consider the bobber a good beginner bike?
S&S is working on exhaust for these.
What kind of gloves to you have @dandanthefireman
They look like Roland Sands
check out the fancy ones lowbrowcustoms has. they have handmade tuf guy gloves
That blue mike that’s riding to your right side in front of you is sweet!! What model is it?
I've been riding my 2016 Scout ABS for 3 years & 14k miles; it's in a 2 up touring configuration. It is not a cross country bike, I've taken it on a 900 mile trip where the longest stretch was 450 miles the first day, and that was a bit much as comfort goes. And the wife can't handle more than 3 total hours of riding. Be that as it may, I Love my Scout! lots of day trips through the NC & VA mountains and forests, I can cruise, or shred with the best of them. I'm 6 ft / 190 lbs, and no comfort issues from that prospective. My biggest complaint is gas tank size, max range is 120-150, however, its also a blessing, because it forces me off the bike every 120 miles, which is about the longest I think comfort for most will be able to stand. Happy Riding!
Really like the look of this bike but....being 6'2" 225, afraid this bike might not be big enough. Anyone fitting those stats know, by any chance?
My daughter is petite like you, she loves her Scout. I told her when she twists the throttle to hold so she doesnt fall off the back.
bought mine here in Chandler. Picking up tomorrow :D super excited!
I want to snag a scout . looks freaking awesome
Does this bike lean learn to the right? How's the balance?
I love the Scout but I want to bob the front and rear fenders. I love the Scout Bobber but I hate the headlight. So which is more reasonable?
Buy the Scout, then change the front and rear fender
Buy the Scout Bobber, then change tue headlights to a bullet shaped one
Thanks!
Great Video
Exelente moto para aventuras campestres.gracias.
Vow that's terrific!
Tell me is it a comfortable bike?
You were riding on a nice road without pot holes or bumps obviously but I'm very afraid about the the very short rear shocks reaction.
Do you think a Corbin seat could be one solution to gain comfort? Or to install other rear shocks?
Many thanks for video and have a nice trip.
I have the 2018 Bobber. I replaced the shocks and the seat. I put Performance Shocks on it and got a Corbin seat. It has made the bike much more comfortable. But, in general, it's a brilliant ride.
I will have this bike some time soon. 🤔🙂
What kind of gloves are you wearing?
They look very much like the Roland Sands Bronzo Gloves
When your 16 you can get a 50cc but I’m just wondering how old do you have to be to be able to own this bike ? What cc is it ?
1200 lol
You were 16, now 17 It doesn't mater, you aré old enough. But If you are a beginer
You would probably want to start with something smaller.
And the bike it's 1,130 CC. That goes for advertirse as a1,100.
I love my 2018 Indian Scout, the competition did not have much to offer as far as price and quality are concerned.
I’m 5’-7” and 165 lbs. and the seat is perfect, I can ride all day.
I bought a Scout Bobber as well and am happy about my choice. I was also considering the HD FortyEight and the Triumph Bonneville Bobber...but the Indian out-powered the competition and was priced better.
I forgot to say, I like the power, handling, torque, and the big ass front tire!!
@@zombiestation - Taller riders express the oppposite opinion. Bad seat with angled riding positon on long rides brings on lower back pain for the taller rider, is what they've been saying.
Doubt anyone's paying attention to comments here anymore but how does this bike work for a beginner bike? I'm in love with the look of this thing and definitely want one but never road a street bike....
That feeling when you want a scout but ride a 250 rebel. 😭 Just can't afford a bigger bike even if I want to
Hell yeah Tucson!
Bro, a question am about to buy a new motorbike and am confused between the scout and the scout bobber which one is better most of my rides are in town and highways every now and then the bike will be my daily ride? Thanks in advance
They are nearly identical mechanically, the Bobber has 2" of rear travel and the Scout has 3". My Scout is comfortable for a daily commute. I've had it just over 3 years and am about to hit 35,000 miles on it. No mechanical issues, I do have a recurring problem with the trigger switch on the control not working sometimes, bit my dealer has always repaired that under warranty. Either is a fantastic bike, I guess the real question is how smooth of roads are you riding on?
It would be dope to take a trip to Mt Lemmon with that bike
What site can I go to , to find the best deals I want the 2019 Indian scout bobber
What mount is that for your phone. I’ve used a ram mount to try and recorded but it was too shaky. Your is very still for what likes like your phone.
It's a RAM mount. I am using the insta360 One X. Its a 360 camera.
DanDanTheFireman oooo gotcha, thanks
Thanks! Is this ok for a tall guy?
I'm looking at getting my first bike and I am leaning towards this or the bolt... I'm 5'3.... do you think this would be a good bike for a short beginner?
This is a good bike for a short beginner. It has a very low seat height
@@DanDanTheFireman and I thought I read somewhere that the bobber seat pushes you forward a little bit... so that will help with my short legs if it's the case. And I have found somewhere thst they make mid controls... but bike they short, I am not sure how I would feel... feel like my legs would go to sleep a lot
I'm one year into riding. My first bike is a Harley Davidson Street 750. I have really enjoyed the bike I think because it is low, (I'm 5'3 and easily flat footed on her). My only issue...I don't feel like she would be good on longer interesting rides. My longest is 3.5 hours, but I never felt like she was completely happy doing 70 mph. Is that just a power thing? How would the Scout bobber compare? You said it seems to have plenty power on the interstate which makes me think my initial interest is now validated. Thanks for the info!
The Scout bobber is a very low bike so you would definitely be able to flatfoot it. And it's actually it's just as powerful as my 1200 Sportster or more powerful. It does have a 6-speed so you'll be completely happy doing more than 70
You should come join the Discord. There's a lot of people there with some Scouts and more information about riding longer distances. Plus I hang out on there like almost all day rebrand.ly/DDFMChat
@@DanDanTheFireman will do!
With intake and exhaust my bobber easily hits 120 on interstate. I don't really pay attention to the RPM but I would say going 80 in 6th it is around 4k?
The scout motor, untweaked, will do 125 on the highway. It has plenty of power and is pretty linear until you hit about 4500rpms, then it goes like a rocket. At that speed if I remember correctly it is in the high 6000s rpm wise. The governor kicks in at that point so the motor has legs to go beyond that speed with a tune. SAFETY NOTE: The tires are only rated to 130mph, so tread with caution above that.
Do you get much engine heat on your legs? I live in Central Texas and it's hot enough just curious about how much heat that bike puts out
Yes alittle. Not a ton though
I had 2018 scout I live in California I could not Stand the heat the engine put out so I sold it at a lost best thing I did in town riding you cook from the engine heat
Piggyback rear shock and saddleman two up seat..just perfect...
What would you rate the Indian scout for long rides (Touring) 1 through 5 Raiding ??
The Scout would be better than the Bobber if you are planning on long rides, but both can be made comfortable. A good seat and bars that fit you can be found easily and make it a cruiser if you want it. In stock form, the Bobber is good for about an hour before your butt needs a couple minutes of break, but with a good seat and maybe better shocks it can be an all day bike. The regular scout has a better seat and more suspension travel, so you can go a good bit longer.
Would 5'4 feet tall girl b comfortable on any kind of bobber ( not just indian scout)
Take a look at the kawasaki vulcan 650 really nice bike and about 3 grand cheaper.
what gloves are those?
Man your my height and hearing your take was perfect man thanks! Been looking at one was thinking of maybe used what’s your advice?
These are amazing bikes. You'll love it
DanDanTheFireman Awesome thanks man!
@@DanDanTheFireman how tall are you
@@DanDanTheFireman never mind you’re 5’6
Would you say this is a good beginner bike? I really want it but I’ve never ridden a motorcycle before.
Saitama _ go for it.
I'm so torn between an Indian scout or Kawasaki vulcan 900.
I want an indian scout sixty, but my wallet says to get something like a rebel 500 or maybe a vulcan s
I am torn between scout and scout sixty. It would be my first bike. Anyone here who has experiences with both kindly provide some feedback/advice
at 4:39 You told that car that you have the right of way, what they did was legal. they can turn into the left lane and ya'll turn into the right lane, that's how it works.. That's why it's illegal for them to wide turn out into the outside lane and vise versa for you to turn straight out into the outside lane. The lanes are designated for both of you to turn simultaneously.
I'm 5'6-5'7 ish too, can you flat foot Harley iron883 sportster too?
Should be fine, if not they make lowering kits and they look great too. Get the 1200 though, you won't regret it.
T-shirt idea: "It's all beer."
What kind of gloves are those
What's are the differences in the 2018 vs 2019 bobber? I was told the 2019 included a USB port and that was the only difference. Do you think they will come put with a 2020 model that has something new and improved, like a better seatm
The amount you'd save getting a left over would be more than enough and then some to just go an get a corb seat that would be better than any improvement they will do.
The trump Bob bber 👍 Motorcycle very go0d ! I got a sporster HD in San Diego ca , : / very desapoint with HD ,
Change the seat I did on my 2020 twenty ABS and now it's secured. Old seat is bad
I rode a scout bobber, the seat is made out of concrete. The normal scout seat is so much nicer. Got to ride the Rodemaster too, the seat is made out of pure angel feathers wrapped in love.
Indian's are cool but I am real happy with my Triumph Bobber.
but those are so uggggggly :(
Hey Dan; I hope ur fine. I been watching ur videos since a long time. Also I know that u have been making test drives in Indian bikes. I guess u are going to buy an FTR1200. Let me tell u that I was going to buy a Scout until I saw the Chief Dark Horse it’s bigger but I think it’s more trustable so I’m about to go and get it in about two weeks. Could u please try to make a video about the chief dark horse? I would like to listen ur opinion about. Greeting Daniel from Mexico City
Daniel Flores also debating between the chief dark horse and the scout bobber!!
It won't be your first bike will it?
blightedmonkey I had another one a few years ago. But it was an old 250 cc. The Chief Dark Horse is going to be my first big bike.
@@daniel740828 that's a big jump man. 250 to a dark horse lol it's going to be tuff.
Personally I prefer the smaller to mid class power cruisers. Things that pull like a train but I can still flick em in and out of traffic.
Goodluck with your search mate
What glowes are you wearing? Thanks for answer in advance
Roland sands design Dezel gloves brah
Thank you soon with my boober ;), Happy New Year all best!
I’m 5’7” with a 28” inseam. I’m all torso. Depending on the bike I’m comfortable up to a 32” seat height depending on the ergonomics. I find almost all super sports uncomfortable. But I sat on a few of bmw’s bikes and found a lot of them comfortable. But I am very uncomfortable with a road glide. Now a street glide. That feels right at home. It’s very similar ergonomics to my Dyna. I also love the mt07 for ergonomics. But I don’t think it’s suspension would like my fat ass.
The bobber is a 25 inch seat height. It is extremely low to the ground and feels so good. I don't know how they did it. I'm glad you found a bike that fits you well
Love the overall look. But thr cillinders are awefull. Nothing on harley in my opinion. But good looking bike besides the engine i gues.
I love this bike but also wanted mid controls. I researched it and found out that nikki sixx has a motorcycle channel on RUclips. He owns a scout bobber and mods it himself. Anyway, he put on a aftermarket mid control set. That made me want the bike even more. How are the lean angles? That's my only real concern now
Robert Stimmel hey bro. I think you mean Rikki Rockett.
Yep, Rikki Rocket from Poison
@@dryphillogic Haha. I knew it was one of those guys.
Why don't they make the speedometer a little bigger, so that the rider don't have to squint so much.
does it still have the problems this 2015 revzilla review identified: ruclips.net/video/346xkbwFtYo/видео.html&t= ?
This vs Triumph Bobber?
The triumph is absolutely stunning especially in the metallic red. But when it comes to prue fun factor im for the scout. I own both the triumph is very comfortable. The scout is sketchy with the seat you need to get the solo seat from factory, or another seat in general.
Also the triumph has a smaller tank, chain maintenance. But both are solid bikes. It is both a win win with either one
Hey bro great vid!- much love from South Africa
Much love from Murica!
What is that blue bike that dude is riding? How tall is he?
I think that is the indian scout regular.
“Worth their salt” is definitely a thing, it comes from the Romans who often paid their soldiers in salt
