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!

Been eyeing this bike for a while! Thanks for the great review!

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.

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.

Now this is a bike I would love to have.💯

Im in love with this bike, will buy one in future

Best review amongst many

Best review about the scout bobber.. I can now sleep peacefully thanks 2 u

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 ?

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 think Indian is banging nails in Harley's coffin 🔨 (along with Harley themselves). 👍

I'm no Harley fan (and I own a Fatbob 114 for my sins) but I believe that Harley still have the edge over Indian in terms of fit and finish, and dare I say reliability? - I realise that this isn't saying a lot though :-)

that's a lovely looking bike was expecting it to cost more

I have this exact bike, love 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

Nice nice one I love to ride this monster bike 🏍

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 Love It🙌

You are one of THE best reviewers out there…….for sure

Only thing I don’t like is how long the exhausts are

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.

Cheers From California 🍻

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 👍🏻

On road people like bike i gave red one its sweet and fun

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

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

No, It's not just the way a cruiser rides, the rear shocks are junk. They offer Rancho shock upgrade $995.

Just checked the Indian line up and I guess it’s the FTR1200 . . . doh

It needs a loud obnoxious exhaust.

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.

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. -CYCLE WORLD By John Burns / May 9, 2011

So basically its all and only about the looks. Comfort crap, lean angle crap, seat crap, shock absorbers crap, technical features crap.
