First Impressions: INDIAN 101 SCOUT | *NEW*
First Impressions: INDIAN SCOUT CLASSIC | NEW : • First Impressions: IND...
This was the first Indian Motorcycle I have ridden. Going into the Demo event there was a lot of hype around the Indian Scout 101 that I was excited. As you can see in the video it was kind of a letdown.
I enjoyed the Indian Scout Classic Limited much more. Check out that video above.

“No bells and whistles” It’s one of the highest end models Indian makes, it comes with everything.

Lol!
I love the honest feedback- no need to sugar coat it :) You didn't love it, it's not the bike for you, and here's why. Good stuff!

The Classic Limited was a much more enjoyable ride.
The Indian Scout 101 makes me think, "Motorcycle Riding 101: In this course we use the Indian Scout to demonstrate a well-done cruiser/sport hybrid design..."
Hey - this is a fully loaded light sport cruiser! Every option is there for that kind of riding. If you want a passenger seat, Indian has several options. They aren't upgrades, they're alternatives.

Good point!
Did you try sport mode on the sport chief? Its 1000% a different engine. Ive not ridden the 101 yet but the review is incomplete without testing all the features 🤷♂️

I did ride the sport chief and rode it in standard and sport mode. Sport had more than enough power. I’ve ridden many bikes. This wasn’t anything to write home about. The Scout Classic Limited even in standard mode only was better than the 101 easy. Link to video in the description.

Well put
Mate why didn't you do a thorough review, when I started watching your test ride and listening to what you were saying I thought this bloke knows how to give a straight forward and honest review, then all of a sudden the ride was over and you admit that you didn't give it a go in Sport mode which is one of the best ways to see what a bike is and what it has to offer.Good try mate but because of this your video was a let down.

So sorry I let you down! 😩
The signal switch needs more tactile feedback. I can't tell when it's on or off. But the bike is so good(for me)that that's one of the few complaints i could think of. I tested the bobber, not the 101.

I agree. The blinkers were not my favorite either
Not sure why they are labeled as 2025 models, but i will definitely get a scout. My love is the street glide special with stretched bags in all black. Wish indian offered stretched bags with the exhaust cut outs.

Cool picks
I'm a little puzzled why this cost more than the FTR Sport, sweet looking bike though.

Looks sweet. Price is too high
Single disk in the rear. No kidding.

The scout will be my first bike. The price point is good. Will choose between bobber and sport. I need my bike all black. I dont like flashy bikes.

It was alright. Paint job was nice
Get the facts on what you are reviewing before broadcasting. It is very apparent that you have limited riding experience and your knowledge of bikes is very not extensive. .

Good to know! One thing that was very obvious was this bike is definitely not worth the hype or the money!
The BMW s1000xr is 170hp @11K rpm that is why you did this test ride awn the 101 1250cc that is at 111hp bc your an egg🍳

I try to ride every kind of bike. Check the link in the description and you’ll see the Scout Classic Limited video I made with only 105hp and it was a lot more enjoyable than this scout 101.
25 seconds in he says he thinks this is on the lower end of the models. It is literally at the top end of the Scout models! 😂 This guy doesn’t do any research on what bike he is reviewing or he is trolling to get comments. If it is the latter, it worked.
