Good point on "paying attention."
I want an arranged marriage with this machine. Thinking of telling my parents about it.
Hahahaha!!!
@@NoogaCowboy Are you the "matchmaker", my parents told me about?
If you can't afford to marry this girl, you can't afford to keep her, Khairul. 😀. After saving up. 🤘
Damn this is some quality content, must admit, best of wishes from Serbia
Thank You!
test rided it, loved it, orderd last week, lucky i can get it next week, felt in love..🥰
I love it!
Indian makes a detachable fairing for it too. And Indian also offers a 2 into 1 exhaust.
Beautiful getting same in jet black next week
I would get rid of the stock muffs and put on a set of grenades, wrap the header pipes, replace the rear shocks with adjustable shocks, and get a premium saddle. I would also junk the headlight housing.
I bought this bike about 3 weeks ago and here are my recommendations
Comfort + seat
Bassani slip on exhaust (Comfortable yet louder exhaust with a nice deep rumble)
3cm handlebar raisers
Adjustable levers depending on your hands
And this makes the bike ALOT better to ride.
I think that the suspension and the seat are the main problems in this bike , not the exhaust.
Its an awesome bike..
Once I changed out my seat and shocks, It became a hole new bike. I also changed out the exhaust and head light.
@@trevorbrown4674 which shocks did you put?
@@trevorbrown4674 can you send the links?
Looks amazing I getting this Tuesday
Enjoy!!
A1 on the bike 👌🏽. I think I want this one starting out. My heart was set on the Chieftain Dark Horse. But I also thought about how close I’m to my job. I’m about five minutes from my job🤷🏽♂️. To have a big bike would be weird to have. I don’t go any where, unless I’m with my wife, and kids. However, I’m sure if I had a big bike, I’d find a reason to ride somewhere. I live in Florida. We have SO many long roads to play around with. Maybe I’ll test drive one tomorrow, or so. I also was thinking about a Honda Rebel 1100. I just love the way the Indian bikes look. I’m new to the motorcycle world, and VERY excited to go motorcycle hunting🙌🏽.
Very cool. Yeah the Chieftain Dark Horse and the Bobber are both great bikes with some major differences. Off the top, if you're new to the motorcycle world I'd lean towards the Bobber or even the Bobber 60 depending on your budget. The Bobber 60 comes in at 999cc and the Bobber is around 1200cc. Also, with the new Chief coming out, you might find some really good deals on used Bobbers. Spend some time on a Bobber and then move up to the Dark Horse. That would be my two cents. Thanks for checking out the videos and reach out if you have any questions.
@@NoogaCowboy Awesome! Thanks man🤙🏽
I'm 5'7 215 pounds and this bike is perfect for me. I will be changing out the exhaust soon and adding a saddle bag & rear seat soon
Changing out the exhaust is a must. This is a great bike. A lot of fun to ride.
Pretty sure you mentioned some aftermarket bars (11:23), but I couldn't make out what you said. An aftermarket parts list in the description would be stellar. I've been eyeballing the Indian Scout Bobber as a replacement bike for a while now. I already have ideas about seat replacement (Corbin), and some slip-ons for exhaust (Vance & Hines), but haven't found good aftermarket bars yet. I would like something that brings the bars back some for a more upright riding position. Any suggestions?
Edit: Went straight to the Indian website and found their "reduced reach" aftermarket bars which should be perfect.
Really love the look of these and the Scouts (classic/standard). Wish I could see the both in person but my local dealers just don't ever have them on the floor in stock. Just orders for sale only.
Dealerships did have an issue keeping the in stock. Surely, they're caught up on inventory by now.
Did u upgrade the seat to a more comfortable one? The start button you just tap or hold in to start?
Loud pipes save lives!
Yes sir!
Nice video 👍 Can you make another video featuring the different colors? Your video is excellent coz you're using a correct white balance. Some picture and videos are not accurate. Im from the Philippines and our local distributor doesn't have all the colors on display and I can't decide what color to get. Planning to get one next month. Thanks for your time!
I'll see what I can do. Thanks for watching!
You sound like John c Reilly great vid bro
Thank You! I've never heard that but I'll take it as a compliment. If only I had his money. Lol
I liked your review seemed fair and honest. I’ve been looking to buy a scout bobber but I not sure on the size I’m 5’9” 215lbs some reviews I’ve seen say over 200lbs you should replace rear shocks for comfort and a seat. What is your opinion? I just look at cost of bike and then once you upgrade exhaust/seat/rear shocks your at about $15k-16k is it worth it? And I agree the exhaust is a bit much it’s too long. I’ve seen them with performance combat 2-1 looks and sounds sick! I’ve always loved the look of the scout bobber by far one of the nicest looks wise
I've always been an advocate of a louder exhaust. Instead of a full exhaust change you can go with some slip ons that will help with the cost. I'd start with replacing the seat. See how that feels and then look at the suspension. I'd recommend taking one out on a test ride. That's the only way you'll really know. Is it worth it?
Motorcycles are not cheap. You might be able to find a used a 2020 Bobber with a proper exhaust and new seat. Overall, whether you go new or used, I think it is worth it. This is a reliable motorcycle and one of the most popular in the Indian lineup. Thanks for checking out the video.
if you go with the scout 60 bobber you don't lose a whole lot of power and its less expensive you can use savings to upgrade bike
Hi there. Compliments from Portugal. I was wondering if there might be a chance of doing a comparing video between the Indian Scout Bobber and the Triumph Bobber. Thanks a lot.
I'll try to make that happen. Thanks for the suggestion.
I am interested in this bike or the bobber 60. Would you say there is a noticeable difference in power? Like a 2k difference. Thanks
The most noticeable difference is when you hit highway/interstate speeds.The Bobber has plenty of juice when you get around the 70-80 mph mark. With the Bobber 60, compared to the Bobber at 70-80 mph, it feels like the bike is laboring a bit more. Around town you wouldn't notice any differences. Either way you will be happy but if you're spending most off your time around town I'd stick with the 60.
Hey mate greetings from Germany! I rode one today with a Jekyll and Hyde exhaust and I totally get your argument about changing it!
I m super torn between the Indian bobber and the Triumph speedmaster. But Dangit … the 100hp are just FUN. I almost felt like I was on a GSX-R when I hit that throttle!
What is your opinion on the Triumph vs Indian idea? Do you think with 186cm I would be too tall for the Indian? Best regards!
I don't think you'd be too tall for the Bobber. I know a lot of guys who are 6'3+ aand own a Bobber. I do like the Triumph's too.
Hello from Montreal. Thanks for the great review. I'm looking to change my exhaust. Any reco?
www.amazon.com/Radiant-Cycles-Exhaust-Motorcycle-2015-2020/dp/B084GBF2X6/ref=sr_1_11?crid=1EOSGGKIEX8CC&dchild=1&keywords=shorty+gp+exhaust&qid=1606213016&s=automotive&sprefix=shorty+gp%2Cautomotive%2C165&sr=1-11 is what I have on mine and I believe he has the same on his. If you want loud, this is the cheapest easiest way to go!
may be able to find cheaper on ebay ;)
Listen to Zach!
Mine is supposed to be here end of the month! Did anything change from the 2020 model other than color?
Almost nothing worth mentioning. It no longer shows coolant temp on the display.
As Jonathan mentioned, not much. I did not notice the absence of the coolant temp but then again I wasn't looking for it.
Hey Thomas, We love our Bobber. But it’s not a Sportbike lol. Come test ride my Gixxer 1000 😁
Really enjoy all ya’ll at Crockett. Keep doing what ya’ll are doing.
I'm not Thomas but he is a good dude. Haha. My Sportbike comment was a bit of exaggeration lol. Never been on a Gixxer. Rode a Z900 and I loved it.
@@NoogaCowboy Lol I know who it is. Great Video and review 👍🏻
Just ordered my thunder smoke black scout bobber 2021 with extras
The salesman was quite negative about the colour choice because the Matt finish leaves stains etc
Ie bugs and light scratches
Is there any coating or wax etc I should use on tank ??
Appreciate your assistance
Good question. I know the Chemical guys make a matte sealant and paint protector. I dont have any experience with that specific product but I do have a number of chemical guys products. Ibe heard good things about Dr. Beasleys matte paint coating as well. When washing the bike make sure to use good microfiber towels and soft wash mitts. Clean them thoroughly after each wash. The two bucket method will help as well. Enjoy that bike and ride safe!
Thanks for your assistance
Unfortunately the dealer said I could be waiting months for my bike to arrive from the USA to Australia 🇦🇺
Maybe up to 3 months!! Because of the virus
I’ll send a picture hopefully soon
Stay safe!!
@@applemuffin7253 Booooo!! Hopefully, it will arrive sooner than expected. I know the dealerships in the USA are experiencing delays as well. It will all be worth it, I promise. 💯
@@applemuffin7253 mine comes end of feb :D!
Great video! im betwen the HD Forty Eight & Indian Scout . I love the look on both motorcycles, tiny edge to the Forty but specs will make me buy the Scout.
I'm not too familiar with the 48's specs but I can tell you the Bobber is a beast. Test ride one if you get the chance. Ride safe!
You're review is so useful and does she vibrates too much on high rpm????....thanks for this review....
Not much vibration at all.
@@NoogaCowboy thnak you so much
How much is it? I see different prices every time I look it up
Hey man, im in the process of getting my motorcycle endorsement and i’m looking at this for a first bike
Would you recommend it for a first time rider?
I always suggest a Honda 500 or the scout sixty as a starter bike. That being said, if you give the motorcycle respect it will treat you right. If you ride safely, the Bobber could work for you.
Looks like NC
3:03 yeah i think you were just exactly in her blind spot, not your fault, not her fault either. Good on you for being alert though and staying calm. If only everyone was like you!
Edit: i dont think she should have crossed that solid white line though? Am i right?
True. Yeah, I think I just happened to be in her blind spot but my bike is loud so she should have heard me. All good tho. As far as crossing the line is concerned I dont fault her for crossing. They painted new lanes while they had construction going on so I dont really blame her. We all made it unscathed so that's a good thing.
Im 6,4 around 295lb do you think i would be comfortable on it
I've known guys your size who loved this bike. I've also known guys your size who traded it in soon after they bought it. They felt like they needed a bigger bike The only way to know for sure is to go out and test ride one. Sorry for answering your question without answering your question. lol. Best of luck!
My question is, I’m 6’1 260 lbs, is this going to look like a motor scooter under me?
Nah, It won't look like a scooter. It will look like a BA bike!! I've known guys 6'4 and 6'5 weighing in around 300lbs riding these bikes.
I don't care too much for the factory exhaust They're too bulky and no sound... I prefer thee Dirty Bird Concepts Exhaust. Otherwise I love the motorcycle. wonder if I can get a Wider tire on back Without losing too much performance, does anybody know??
I’m 6’3, would this bike work for my height?
Look into the scout twenty might be a better fit
Is it just me or does the exhaust remind you of the Jetsons? Love the bike though
Hahaha. 💯
are there more than 4 gears? 😎
One more. Ha
I need one
You won't regret it!
@@NoogaCowboy thanks, that is the first bike I've wanted in a long time.
@@NoogaCowboy indeed I just bought a 2021 Scout Bobber Abs in White Smoke, Love it 😁👍
What color is the bike?
It is matte black.
@@NoogaCowboy Isn't the bike color black smoke ?
@@user-pp2wy8kl1f That is correct
Bars are called drag bars
Breathing really hard, someone needs some gym time!
#Facts
Dislike the exhaust. Too long and bulky.
Just add some GP TIPS (if you can't afford a complete switch out).
Can't give the acceleration an A when you're shifting at less than 4,000 RPMs.
Let that shit crank to 6,000+. It's meant to be floored.
You drive in people's blind spots and always stop in the center of the lane where the grease and other fluids drip from cars. Who taught you how to drive dude?
i thought you was going to try it out you rode it like a girl, nice bike though.
I get that. Would've been more manly if I was the owner.
Getting travel sick watching this. DON'T MOVE YOUR HEAD SO MUCH! - Had enough at 8 minutes.
