- For £12,699, just £1,000 more than the standard model, you can buy an Indian Scout Bobber Twenty with its extra goodies such as wire wheels, so our regular contributor and all-around nice bloke, Simon Hargreaves, took the new 1133cc, 60° V-twin machine for a test ride.

The "20" references 1920 and 2020. It's their 100th year anniversary Scout.
I felt like he should’ve known that.
One of the most beautiful bikes I've ever seen so far in my lifetime!
I think Indian is banging nails in Harley's coffin 🔨 (along with Harley themselves). 👍
Been eyeing this bike for a while! Thanks for the great review!
What an excellent review. Well presented, great manner, no bull and not in anyway offensive to the brand. I don’t own an Indian but after this would certainly demo one. Thank you
Great review! Enjoyed your relaxed approach to presenting - not blasting us with specs, but rather focussing on the real-life rideability of the bike.
Best review about the scout bobber.. I can now sleep peacefully thanks 2 u
only thing i do not like about the look are the huge pipes.
This Simon is great isn’t he, says it as he sees it without being scathing. I’d buy into anything from a bloke that can ride any bike yet raves about a 75hp V85TT 👍🏻
That's why we pay him the big bucks!
@@bennettsbikesocial - he gets to ride bikes AND get paid 😳
Just checked the Indian line up and I guess it’s the FTR1200 . . . doh
Ride one. Two Wheeled equivalent of a classic Ford Mustang. Torque Monster and guaranteed to make you laugh out loud, check out Chris @ BikeWorld reviews and his FTR1200 race bike project......
Cheers From California 🍻
It needs a loud obnoxious exhaust.
The 20 comes from 2020 model year new to Indian this year
Uhhhh, no. It comes from 1920, the year the first Scout was produced.
No, it actually doesn't
@@craigmichael6293 cheers 👍🏿
20 is significant because 1920 was the year the first Scout was released. Also, Indian Motorcycles was was bought by Polaris in 2011 not 2000. Do some research before you make a video.
Seat is junk too.
So basically its all and only about the looks. Comfort crap, lean angle crap, seat crap, shock absorbers crap, technical features crap.
Now this is a bike I would love to have.💯
Really, really nice. I used to own a hardtail chop and sprung seats really help with comfort. If I had this I'd fit a solid base and sprung seat and that would instantly stop jolts. Looks a lot nicer than the triumph.
My only major gripe with Indian is their lack of physical support. I knew a guy who had a warranty repair and it took them almost four months to get his bike up and running. There were also recalls that another buddy of mine had to get put on a waiting list to have rectified. I absolutely love the Scout line and I do plan on owning one in the future when their situation improves, but until they have reasonable resources and can meet the demand of their growing fanbase, I am going to have to hold off.
I have this exact bike, love it!
Have you done any long trips with it? How is it?
@@magnusskarb1048 I commute about 85km each way 2 or 3x a week, if I had known iid be commuting that distance, I doubt I would have chosen a bobber. I don't recommend it for more than about 30 to 40 min at a time if possible
Only thing I don’t like is how long the exhausts are
that's a lovely looking bike was expecting it to cost more
Nice nice one I love to ride this monster bike 🏍
Cat squashers? That must be a boomer term… 😂
Can I ask how tall are you? You look good on it. Im 6’2 and I love this bike. I think I should be good
I'm also 6'2 and this bike felt perfect
@@cookie3266 Thank you!
Hi from New Zealand. Thinking of first ADV bike, Simon convinced me V85tt was probably right bike. Thought I might buy a cruiser as well ( Well a smaller one, have Moto Guzzi California 1400 custom), Think Simon may have convinced me again.
I tried one of these. Great looking bike, but felt like I was “over” the bike, even with regular seat. Weird feeling. Plus it felt too small, like a kids bike (i’m 1m81, so just under 6’). Beautiful bike though
No, It's not just the way a cruiser rides, the rear shocks are junk. They offer Rancho shock upgrade $995.
Great vid Si , what about that engine in something cafe/modern retro styled Something with a bit more travel and more neutral to rear set pegs ?
On road people like bike i gave red one its sweet and fun
You are driving on the wrong side of the road! Lol
Im in love with this bike, will buy one in future
Best review amongst many
If you have a lower back problem and you really really want a scout bobber is there anything you can do to solve the problem? Maybe a custom rear suspension or spring saddle?
A more comfortable seat would probably be the easiest and cheapest way to improve the ride. Then you might want to take a look at upgrading the rear shocks. I did both to my Bobber 20 and I rarely get any shocks to my back.
I Love It🙌
Great review. Thank you. Subscribed!
Thanks for the sub, Mauricio, and welcome!
You are one of THE best reviewers out there…….for sure
Polaris Industries Buys Indian Motorcycle - Industry News
On April 19, 2011, Polaris announced the acquisition from Stellican (and private equity firm Novator) for an amount we're unable to pry out of Polaris. On its website, Indian claims to have been experiencing excellent sales and growth in its third year of operation.
