Love love this series!! Your breakdown of the scoring is super helpful and, though surprising, it made sense why it got such a low score. Can't wait for the next one!!
It is so fun to see (and hear) your joy with the little things that make riding fun. The Scouts were on my short list when I was bike shopping not too long ago. They are solid and Polaris has a good reputation. Looking forward to your next try out. Cheers!
love the video! i recently got the scout bobber 25, im a new rider as well and i can say with confidence that i definitely dont have any regrets getting it
The model explanation at the start was a big help for me, now the different Scout models Kinda make sense to my pea brain😊 Looked like it was fun to ride.. I thought the spoke wheels gave sort of a visual Lightness to this model very cool.. look forward to your next try out ride! 👍
Keep looking, I’d love to see you try an inline 4 engined bike. Maybe a CB, GSX or a Z bike. Japanese brands do offer good value even if the bikes aren’t as stylish
At heavy bikes use the rear brake the last 20m to a stop. Then you keep it straight. When you plan to park…..look at the surface, incline and place it so you can easily drive away, afterwards. Plan ahead,….the it never surprises you. Nice to see how you enjoy the first rides!!! For me 45 years ago,,,…haha!
Being a shorter rider I would say try out the Triumph Speed Twin 900. Love the look and it has enough power to be fun. If you can fit on the T120 though, that bike is such a gem!
First off, just found your channel. And i am enjoy catching up with your story of new rider to confident rider. I have suggestions on your Rea View. You should consider giving every item a scale number. I say that so that the final score isn't skewed by some of the lesser concidersations. An example is that you score "vibes" and coolness" very high but score "if can can, if no can, no can" lower. However, you can get a higher Rea score cuz of the 2 lesser consideration seriously push the total score up. How should you scale, you can aim to have the average scale equal to 1. Example; "power" gets 1.25 scale and "vibes" would get 0.75 scale. The goal is to have the average of both equal to 1. But you would do this with all your listed items. It may be a bit difficult to keep the scale to 1 with so many considerations, so maybe an average scale of 2 may work. May keep you from getting into too many decimals on your scale. I wish you the best on your journey, and I'll be following you that journey!
I’m new to your Chanel and loveing it man there’s nothing like riding a motorcycle my happiest times were on a motorcycle I started off on a Honda 750 then a sportster to a gf low rider then a 2021 eletra glide my favorite bike so far wich I lost during the inflation 😢 but I hope to be back on soon I think I want to go with Indian the dark horse but those mini apes you have on that bike look tempting stay safe out there
I own the new sport scout and love it the only thing I don’t like about it is the long load times for the display and the sound, also I don’t like asking locals there hidden gems but what trail were you on!?! Ik you started down by Ala Moana and the ride looks amazing I usually go down by the halona blowhole for the views and tight curves. And lastly love your videos and it helped me get into riding again,
Surprised it scored below the Rebel, not so much the Sportster S as it’s a more expensive bike with more features and power. I’m curious to see where the Ducati lands in the future.
It was mainly due to the look of the twenty! If it were the regular scout bobber or the scout bobber sixty, I really think it would’ve made the top of my list &yes I look forward to doing a part 2 of the Ducati!! 😊
Have you done a video on your new gear? Remember seeing one when you first started riding with the black jacket. But looks like you've got on some kind of shirt that has armour in it. I'm planning a trip to Thailand so looking for some gear to be worn in tropical climate, figure Hawaii is close enough
Hi! I have not made an updated one yet on my new gear but I plan on it!! I really love this new jacket I got. It’s from Pando Moto😊 it’s their unisex armored shirt. Perfect for warmer weather
I love this Video when you were riding the Indian Motorcycle and you were laughing you made me laugh I know the feeling I have a 2018 Indian Scout Bobber I Absolutely love it
Great review , nice looking bike . Too expensive and too heavy for me but still beautiful. Don't know if there's a Moto Guzzy dealership in your area but if so please check out the v7 850. It sits a little higher but the bike is lighter with tons of character and beautiful retro styling. Around $10k in the USA , I believe. I think you may like . Ride safe
Haha I agree!! If it were mine, I’d get an exhaust that’s a little louder 😋 & gosh the Pali is always such a beautiful ride. Maybe one day I’ll try it on a sportbike
Interesting and fun watch, genuinely takes me back to being a new rider. Comment: On some of the corners, you have a good line. On others, randomly, not as much, so if you work on that, you'll gain a lot. Look up videos/images of racing lines, the idea not being to become a racer, but develop an ability to assess the racing line as you actually ride on the street, where that line is also the most efficient path through a corner or series of corners. Cool bike. Wildly beautiful bike with the right treatment. Not the most comfortable. I haven't paid attention to new bikes in awhile - but maybe check out the Yamaha Bolt? It has a huge aftermarket, which is what I look for in bikes/cars.
I would prefer she hold her line. I don't want someone weaving back and forth across the road. Racing line is for going fast and that's not what she was doing here.
@@markcardwell3691 Racing line's also for general navigability. Doesn't have to be called a racing line. If I'm going normal speeds on a good line, I get more space to react. The physics of whatever comes up is more likely to be in my favor, braking, lean, throttle. That's what I've always felt, day one as a rider. Defense always. I also never go with the flow of traffic, always 5-10 faster. Haha, I bet you'll love that one.
As a 21 Bobber owner, I'm offended by your ranking the sportster over a scout bobber!! Haha, they are both great bikes. Interesting review, I enjoyed it. I do think you are unfairly docking the bobber points on braking. The one you rode apparently had an issue. A bobber in good riding condition (one with no malfunction codes) would have no issues in the braking category. So give the bobber another chance!! Find the version you really want (the rogue?, the regular bobber?) and one with no codes present and ride that one. I think it would move up your rankings...
Good line ! I may use that one some day😊 At the bar last night , I asked her if I could get her a drink or if she rather have the money. She took the money 😊
The patented Rea Weeeeee Lol 😂 Rea as far as the weight of the motorcycle you have to park it so don’t have to back it out from an inclined position. You would back it in if it was on a slight hill.
Haha now that you’ve pointed it out, I notice that I do that quite often!😅😂 & yes that’s a good point. I usually try to back in at an incline, I must’ve been so excited that I forgot
scout rogue in 2025 is not called rogue any more now it's called Sport Scout... you know to add to confusion and it doesn't have apes it has riser bar with normal handlebars Scout 60 bobber is basically response to bikes like rebel 1100 and maybe new riders that want to start with indians... in few years we will have quite good after market with used 60ties in good prices
....Time to sell the Honda Sewing Machine and put your BIG girl pants on ! - I love Indians.I like their simplicity. Too much technology in the world, too much to worry about. Maybe try the "Scout" some time. Another great video.
The right front indicator must be lose cuz it moves more in towards the bike as the video goes on lol. Actually I think both side front indicators are lose.
Hello, I know why you ride, and I think it's so cool. I ride too. I'm reminded of that beautiful Russian daredevil woman from a few years back who is no longer with us. Enjoy, you have enough presence to not need to ever push the limits.
When I demo’d some Indian bikes, inconceivably I liked the baggers better than the Scout range. Which was bonkers to me given the size of them, but I found the ride feel smoother-specifically the Springfield and Chieftain that I tried. I did also really love the look of the Scouts, but I think your video demonstrates a lot of the reasons why I went another direction haha. +1 for trying some Triumphs! As an owner of two I’m not biased at ALL lol. You might enjoy the Speed Twin range if you’re shopping for a daily rider-1200 specifically (I think given your riding experience you can skip the 400/900).
❤❤❤nice bike cute woman Match perfect I like that look of the bike also more from the standard not this special edition but Im too tall😂 I stick with my Dr800S Big and V Strom 1050 DE with around 6'4" Try maybe a royal enfield 650 Bike I like the super meteor but dont know if that is too big for you But maybe that could be someting not so expensive that makes a lot of fun at least here in Germany its a good price alternative and they can last a long time
No disrespect, really. I think it would be a better investment to first upgrade riding knowledge/skills software first, and then think about upgrading equipment. It’ll increase chances of staying alive to do more vids!
I'm not sure why you're even looking at bigger bikes? If I had to rate your riding skills I'd give you about a 5 out of 10. Granted, I haven't seen any other videos. You should stick with the Rebel for a while more until you're better at cornering, gear awareness, parking on an incline, slow maneuvers, etc. As for your physical size, I don't think that has any bearing given I've seen Doodle on huge touring bikes w/o issues. Best of luck & stay safe 🏍
Thanks! I’ll take that as a compliment. I’m actually wearing AA and AAA certified motorcycle gear. It’s designed to not look like the ugly conventional gear that a lot of us were stuck with in the past.

I would agree. I put 11,000 miles on a Honda CB650R. Still wish I would have kept it.
This bike looks badass though. I do love Triumph bikes too. Looking forward to you reviewing some of those
Do you think the easy steering had to do with a mini apes? Great video keep them coming.

Yes!! It’s next on my list to try out! 😊🙌🏼
Would love ur opinion on the dct 1100 😅
@@stevenkim5688 Never ridden a dct, but the standard is fun.

it suites u so well
You don't seem to counter steer your way through the turns. That's probably why you were almost of the road
I would like to see your review of the Harley Nightster Special
Thank you for the suggestion!! I’ll add that to my list!😊
@@RidewithReamy wife is learning on a Rebel 500 partly after watching your series last year
@@rehirsch8wow that’s amazing!!! The Rebel is a wonderful bike 😊
Where are you in this video? Looks nice.
Please try a Triumph Bonneville, I think it would be a perfect bike for you.
I will add that to my list! 😊 thank you!
Wooh more bike scouting! 😄
That thing sounds nice, need a little louder lol. Man old Pali highway down hill run was always a fun ride, especially on sportbikes.
Haha I agree!! If it were mine, I’d get an exhaust that’s a little louder 😋

How do you handle these heavy beasts I fell over the minute I sat on a Honda rebel
🎉Happy New Year!🎉
Get you the scout bobber itself. Its amazing i love mine.
I have a 2025 Super Scout. Nice bike. Ride safe everyone!
I hope you get the Indian motorcycle….you look amazing on the Indian scout bobber
I think I saw you yesterday getting on the Lunalilo St on-ramp.
why noit ridiong with full leather motorcycle gear to get better porotected ?
It is always fun to see the difference in how men and women ride bikes... 😂
Take care and ride on! ✌😎

Maybe a Harley Street Bob. It’s heavier, but you will get used to it sooner than you think. And it’s sure high in the cool factor.
The thing is i could drink a chocolate thickshake with malt while riding this cool bike 🥤🕺 Cheers from Bundaberg Australia 🇦🇺 🏍
The safest bike for you to get on would be the backseat of mine
Good line ! I may use that one some day😊
At the bar last night , I asked her if I could get her a drink or if she rather have the money. She took the money 😊
Wow I am rarely first to comment and like. I saw your IG post and thought you got a sweet upgrade.
Aww man I wish!!! Haha but I’m getting closer to making my decision 😊

😂😂🤙🏼
@@RidewithRea Dat buggah so fast, your turn signals went back lol.
Try out the Honda Fury VT1300. Nice comfortable ride and low enough for short cakes like yourself.
It seems like a pretty cool bike, a little expensive though.

Harley and Indian do the same crap. Too many variations of basically the same bike.

Congratulations virtue signaler. Don't you know that girls, generally speaking, don't wear gear. It reduces their clicks.
