I added floorboards to my Indian Scout Bobber - and I like it!

Picked up some floorboards for my Indian Scout Bobber and I have to say they are awesome. Check out the video and we do the install, it is super easy.

    I installed those same aftermarket floorboards on my scout bobber 60. The only issue I have is they don’t flip up like the old pegs did. They go up maybe halfway. I worry if that will be an issue when I’m taking a turn and go into a deep lean. Great videos, keep them coming!

I went with the Scout boards as I used the "Heroes" promotion to cover these and the Indian low wind deflector, otherwise would have done same as you. $200 for the word "Indian" is approaching stupid level from a consumer standpoint. I'm also adding a heel/toe shifter. Aeromach makes a nice one. Had this on my previous CVO Street Glide and it completes the floorboard "ergonomic" experience. Have fun!!
