  • The classic American V-Twin rivalry between Harley-Davidson and Indian continues, this time with the Nightster in Harley's corner and the Scout Rogue in Indian's. Both motorcycles can trace their lineage back to the early days for both companies, but these modern versions represent what should be classic examples of lightweight V-Twin cruising. The result couldn't be any more different. Follow along as Motorcycle.com's Ryan Adams and Troy Siahaan tell you why.

    I love the Indian scout rogue. It's just a beautiful cruiser.

    If I want a cruiser, looks is going to be very important and the Indian just wins.

    I picked up my Scout Rogue 3 weeks ago. that bike is phenomenal. once I adjusted my suspension to the right setting, it was a bit stiffer but I wasn't bottoming out on every bloody bump. Riding the scout, fast or slow, is fun. it scrapes around every turn (which for me being a 22-year-old male, is so satisfying lol). looks wise, I agree, the Scout is by far a much better bike; it's more comfortable, the seating position is better and the 10-inch mini apes are so comfy. The only thing I don't like about it is the MASSIVE pipes it has (but every scout owner switches the exhaust first lol). Great review guys!

    I test rode a 23 nightster special at a dealer and was really impressed. I liked the look and technology and how fun and responsive the throttle was (later found out it was set to “sport” mode)… anyway they said this bike would cost me in the late teens out the door. The standard version would be a little bit less.

    The scout looks much better. That Harley motor looks like the robot from lost in space

    I want a cruiser with performance and handling so I guess that means buy a Nighter . You can go slow on anything so you get two worlds with the Nightster.

    Indians overall design and fit and finish seem to be superior to HD.

    I owned the 22 HD Nightster for 40 days. I love the bike but unfortunately the bike died with only 95 miles on the odometer. Harley is having some major quality issues with the new nightster for many owners are reporting the same issue I had which is the control module failing. I really wished the nightster didn’t have this quality issue because it is an amazing bike.

    Great job on the comparison

  • @josephawad3493

    My Indian Scout Rogue is unreal and amazing to ride. The suspension on it is a bit stiff but does not make performance awkward at all!! Can't help feeling there is some Harley catering here.

    So, if you upgrade the suspension then the Indian woes seems to go away?

    Out of those two, the Nightster. IMO I'd go with the Honda Rebel 1100 and save some cash.

    I ride a Sportster for several years. I immediately switched the bars for track bars with 4” pull back risers. I loved that setup. Changed out the stock seat, as well for a two up.

    You should compare these bikes with the rebel 11oo next, especially the Harley

    Interesting video but I have a few questions about what mode were you riding in and what mode was the Dyno test performed on the Nightster?

    As much as I’m sure it makes great power. I with the revmax didn’t have The 30° offset crank. It makes it fire Like a 90° V twin. Which is cool if you like Ducati’s and cross plane P-twins. But the standard firing 60° twin in the Indian and the classic V-rod just sound so much better. It reminds me of a muscle car

    I have the Indian Scout Bobber. (Not the Rogue) I'm 100% in love with it. Everything mentioned in this video is just the type of things you deal with, with this type of bike. But, the one small thing I absolutely hate about the Scout, the gear indicator. Everytime you pull in the clutch, the gear indicator goes blank, you release the clutch lever, and it does a countdown to the gear you're already in. Say you're pulling up to a stoplight with traffic, and it turns green, you downshift, and release the clutch into second gear, it'll start in 6th, to 5th, to 4th, to 3rd, then to second. First time I noticed it, I thought I was in 6th gear, then noticed it counting down. Dumb idea.

    Great video. A little repetitive to the point that I started getting confused about your conclusions.
