Hey Yammie, I think there’s a scammer using your logo in the comments trying to get everyone to call them.. every comment I’ve seen is getting a reply either saying thanks for watching let’s talk or something about put on a short list for prizes… just want to make sure you’re aware…
Do the scout rogue please. Thanks
Any way to raise those foot pegs to get a better lean angle? Or do the pipes still limit your lean in the corners?
I’ll save you some time. Hi, I’m yammie. Only sport bikes are good but the Bobber is kinda ok if your old. Now I’m going to talk until UA-cam pays me.
...and I'm gonna spend 40hrs a week deleting negative comments off my channel after I dumped my best employee because I spend too much time behind a computer 🤣☯️
I rode a busa many years and love sport bikes but I think this bike is great. Don't have to be old man. What's that crap?
@@michaelderenne9838 naw man, what I’m saying is if you watch yammie’s videos they are all the same. After a year of watching his videos I feel his opinion is only track ready sport bikes are good and any other bike is for when you are ready to retire. After that he pushes his affiliates and products until the end of the video. I don’t even watch his videos anymore. Spite’s Corner is the motorcycle content for me.
I'm thinking you might still be wearing Pull-Ups with a comment like that. You haven't graduated yet buddy
Lots of channels are geared towards cruisers or just sport bikes. Yammies likes sport bikes. So what, go find a cruiser channel then. BTW I prefer cruisers, I actually think most sport bikes are ugly as hell but I still like this channel. I'm not a snowflake
COVID lockdowns hit and I ran out to buy my first motorcycle at 30 years old. I test drove nearly every motorcycle I could get my hands on after getting my license and fell in love with the Indian Scout Bobber. I got the matte black 1133cc ABS variant, immediately slapped a performance air intake and radical radius pipes on her with the floating saddle seat and have been ripping up the city ever since. It's about 111 hp, loud af, and I often get people pulling up next to me hanging out their window yelling at me how sexy my bike is. Basically it's a stool with handles mounted to a rocketship. I've been extremely satisfied with my motorcycling experience so far, and look forward to building a collection.
I just got a used scout bobber. Also matte black and also with radical radius pipes. That bike is a beast. I need to either get my shocks adjusted or just upgrade my suspension
I just get a kick out of your comment.
Rode a Honda Rebel 500 for about a year. Then I upgraded to a Scout Bobber. I liked the Rebel. There is nothing wrong with the bike, it’s solid. Reliable. But there is something about the Scout that makes me excited. It’s the looks. It’s the way it feels planted to the road and make me enjoy cornering and acceleration. The bobber is a bike I love. You can’t measure that. But I’d recommend looking for that kind of emotional connection. Because let’s face it: for most of us the motorcycle isn’t purely a means for transportation. It’s very much a toy too. So get the one you actually love.
i couldn't have said it better myself
@@lukecrosby615 Nor me.
I currently have a Rebel 500 and considering upgrading to a Scout Bobber. If it’s not too much of a bother, how does the suspension compare between the two and what’s the gearing like between the two? One of my biggest gripes with the Rebel is how short each gear is.
@@The_Mewster69 The Bobber is definitely on the stiffer side. I'm a 6 foot / 210 LBS guy. Not exactly ginormous but hardly petite. Riding over manhole covers can feel a bit like being ejected from the seat. I upgraded to the official Scout comfort seat -- massive improvement. The stock seat is very slim. I'd say the Rebel was comparable, but the Rebel is lighter and feels more flimsy on highways. Scout remains planted.
In terms of gearing I like the Scout more than the Rebel, but it's also a bit of an apples to oranges comparison, given that the Bobber is an 1100 CC bike -- it has quite a bit more oomph than the Rebel 500, so the gears do a lot more for you to begin with. In terms of max speed, I end up around ~70mph, maybe 80mph. Just like the Rebel the lack of fairing/windshield makes higher speeds rougher. As a result I don't feel like I ever exceeded the gearing. Despite the high CCs it is still a cruiser, so don't expect crazy acceleration. But massively better than the Rebel. And if you're used to a super sport where you can pull first gear all the way to 100 mph then the gearing of the Bobber will feel VERY limiting.
Disclaimer: I'm about to sell my Bobber because I mostly ride my other two bikes now (BMW GS 1250 and BMW S1000RR). I still love the looks of the Bobber but my riding style has changed. When I do touring, I prefer the GS. And when I want to be sporty, I prefer the S1000RR. It is of course an apples to oranges comparison (both beemers are 30K+ bikes and for a very different riding style), so I wouldn't hold that against the Scout.
@@ImmoLandwerth Woah that is a very detailed explanation that I didn’t expect but greatly appreciate nonetheless. I think the Rebel is a great bike as it is but I’m just wanting a little more that it can’t deliver but I think the Scout Bobber should be able to. Based on your experience with it, I think it’d be a smart choice as my upgrade.
I love my Scout Bobber - it's just a fun ride, nimble with power for days and feels planted on the road. I have the Bobber 20, so it came with 10" mini ape hangers and spoke wheels. It's gorgeous from the dealership, but it's ultimately a jumping off point where you can customize it any way you want, and the aftermarket is wide open. At this time in my life, the bobber is a perfect bike for me, so much so that I'm not even interested in looking around. I predict I'll be riding my bobber for years to come.
I have owned a Scout Bobber for 2 years. Dedicated my own channel to it. Obviously I'm biased, but it is a fantastic bike, and I can appreciate your perspective on their history as a company. I have spent a few thousand in upgrades making it scream "me", but even from the factory it has a lot to offer.
I follow your channel, love your color scheme! Sweet bike!
@@Mayjay87 thank you so much!
Just saw this comment and your channel sounds interesting. I'm going over right now just to subscribe
@@dixee6498 thanks for checking it out!
I am planning to buy one, I am glad to read what you wrote.
I bought a 2021 Scout Bobber in April and couldn't be happier. Ive put over 7000 miles on it this summer with many hours in the saddle. I'd say the only must is to get a more comfortable seat and it badly needs better rear suspension. Everything else just remember the style of bike you're riding
🤘🏼
Video starts around 4:00
I started riding with the Indian Scout bobber. I love everything about it except the seat 😂. When I first saw the bike, it was love at first sight! To me, it looked like a classic old bike with a modern touch, just slap on some white walls and you got yourself a sweeeeet looking iron steed. I already have 10k miles on it, I can’t get enough of it 👍🏼 definitely worth 15k walkout price
Shocked that he didn’t compare the scout bobber to the triumph bobber. A worthy competitor that I think gets overlooked.
Because his content is crap and not well researched
That seems like closest real comp to me and was hoping for it.
My first bike was a 18 scout it was a beautiful mean light weight missile it’s a great bike and light enough to screw up and put a foot down even at 10 mph in the rain and still save the bike it’s a damn great bike and I only got a chief to have bags It’s only thing I want to ride but I need to carry crap here n there when I’m doing day trips
I bought a matte green scout bobber20 two years ago and I’ve loved every minute of it. My last bike was a 1984 HD Iron head…I can’t even begin to portray a comparison because they are two different machines, but I definitely enjoy riding my Indian much more. Thanks for the video I enjoyed it. 👍
I got rid of my 2020 HD and bought a 2022 Scout Bobber in March. I absolutely love it. Like others, I changed the seat and exhaust. I drive from Dallas to Waco a few times a month on it. SOOOO much better than my HD.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
what Harley did you have, I'm tryna decide weather to get a Harley or a Indian
@@thewanderingcoin don't drink the Kool aid. Get an Indian. Although I'm biased
I have a Bobber 60. It's my first bike. Been a joy to ride. I feel like it is a really good platform to start on since everything on it so solid and the ride height makes it very easy to flatfoot. It also doesn't have a bunch of annoying tech to mess around with. Start it and ride.
2019 Bobber was my first bike... Some people said it's too powerful for a newbie but I actually think I could use just a little more power. I might use a programmer and upgrade the intake. But yes, it is a great ride and with my Vance and Hines exhaust, it just sounds so sweet. Get a lot of people stopping to check it out and ask about it too.
My first bike was a 1972 Norton Commando 750cc when I got out of the army in 1974. So I say go for it and have fun!
Thanks for the video. Have been riding my 2021 Scout Bobber for about a year now (came over from the old school Nighthawk 750, then the Honda Shadow) and it’s a fantastic bike. It’s my daily commute bike and weekend rides. I’m 6’2 and am perfectly comfortable on the bike. Only upgrades I added where the headlight and passenger seat. Removed the first baffle on each pipe to improve the sound. The bike definitely turns heads, rides great, looks great and since I try to avoid potholes and large burns, the suspension hasn’t been an issue for me.
IMO it’s the best looking and riding bike you can buy today for under 14k brand new. The attention to detail is excellent also with the branding. Only ‘upgrade’ I’d like to see become available, is the same ride command gauge as the Chief’s have.
The Scout seems like a perfect 2nd bike. Not great for distance, but would be a blast ripping around town.
Bought a 2022 bobber for my first bike with zero experience and am in love with it
@@Scootertin as your first bike how has the engine size/power been treating ya? Is it too much for a new guy or very user friendly?
I got a storm blue Indian Scout Rogue last month! I love it! (It’s my first bike).
As a former hockey player and guitarist (no anchor tattoo though) I feel personally attacked 🤣 That being said, I fell in love with the Indian Scout Bobber the first time I saw one. When Indian released the Rogue I decided the Rogue was more practical for my riding needs than the Bobber. After owning a black smoke Rogue for almost two months with an upgraded seat and exhaust I have ZERO regrets owning this bike. Power, comfort, ergonomics, looks, sound, this bike has it all!
Let's go, Yam: Indian Bobber vs Triumph Bobber. Make it happen.
Would love to do it!
Good luck with that with one host
@@yammienoob get some help
Bought a 22 Scout Bobber Sixty as my first bike. 3 Months owning it so far and really enjoy it.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Ah I’ve been waiting for my favorite cruiser of all time to be reviewed. Scout Bobber is an awesome motorcycle and I wish more cruisers followed suit, in terms of power, looks, handling, price etc. Even a used Victory Octane is one hell of a bike, which is what the Bobber is based off of.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Go Rogue!! It's the Indian Scout Bobber plus fully blacked out engine / pipes, Syndicate Seat, 19" performance front wheel, 10" Blacked Out Mini Apes, and the Quarter Fairing keeps you from being blown off the handlebars in the triple digits.
I'm a "been ridin' 30 years" squid. After a test ride I bought a brand new scout in 2019. I sat on a scout bobber and I don't know why anyone would choose it over the original scout other than for looks. The big fenders (when you get caught in the rain) and extra inch of rear suspension travel make the Scout a much better choice as a daily driver. 30,000 hard miles on mine, and not a single mechanical issue. BTW programmer/intake/pipes really wake theese engines up. Just my $.02 on the scout.
Unsubscribe to this guy, go look at the last Video before this one
Not everyone is a boomer that needs to be drowned out in chrome.
I’m a “been riding one year” squid and I 100% agree. I love my 2019 Scout, got it after I outgrew my starter bike. Considered a Rebel 1100 but I sat on one and didn’t love it. Also sat on a bobber and wondered why other than the look.
@@tinman3586 funny how he didn't mention chrome at all. Actually said the bobber looks better. Said the scout was more practical.
@@jd-xj3ew I've been swapping the chrome and cheap cast steel parts for flat black and raw billet.
do a video on backfiring, like how your decision to cut your copilot backfired 🤣
Nice friendship windmill
My Scout Bobber 20 is my first “big boy” bike and I love it. The taller handle bars on the 20 might not look as cool but at 5 foot 9 I find it really comfortable. After tweaking the suspension for my weight it handles bumps fairly well. It’s approachable enough that with my limited experience I wasn’t too intimidated but it has enough get up and go that my more experienced friends have enjoyed riding it
This is a perfect review for me. Im 5'9 about 225 lbs. So letting me know you're still comfortable while riding is a huge plus!
I bought a sage brush ‘23 scout bobber back in January ‘23 first bike, learned to ride on it too, my opinion on it is; it’s a great bike, all I’ve done to it so far is flip the mirrors and add some GP shorties and some white walls on it and I get compliments all the time, plus the ride is great. I’m 5’8” 220 and I think it’s a good fit. The one thing you hit the mail on the head with is how it scrapes the pegs on turns. It’s happened plenty of times and it makes it hard to give it that lean I need for a turn, but over all the bike has the power when you need it or the subtlety when you don’t. I love it overall
Love my new scout bobber.
The only thing I’m looking to do with it right away is put on some 10 inch mini apes. It completely changes the seating position and makes it perfect in terms of confront. It does ok with the stock handlebars but I’ve sat on one w/ mini apes and wow! It’s so comfortable.
Scout Bobber 20, 2023, LOVE IT! Been riding since 1995, this is by far my favorite.
I just rode an Indian Scout, and it was a fun experience. I can see riding it for miles.
I've got to be honest : I do love the look and the power of the Indian scout. That's all I have to say.
I have a 2022 Scout bobber and I love it! Upgraded a few things including exhaust it looks and sounds awesome. Not the most comfortable bike and unforgiving on bumps with the slammed suspension but it's a fun and fast little cruiser
Personally for me I love the looks of the Scout Bobber but when I sat on it there were some things I wanted to change. The handle bars were to low and seat not the best. I sat on the Scout Rogue and WOW. Ordered the Scout Rogue 60 and love it. 😀Plenty of accessories available from Indian and aftermarket. Lots of enjoyment riding it. Great video by the way. 👍👍
Both Fortnine and this guy did a video on Indian scout, in the opening 10 to 15 seconds I can tell who worked harder on their video.
One used stock photos while talking on a mic sitting on a chair while the other explained the concept of torque to BHP while presenting actual bike-scout bobber.
Always remember that.
gotta say i love seeing a bike that i own being reviewed between the scout the ninja 650 and my grom its always great to watch yam show some love to bikes the average person can afford lol
2021 Scout Bobber ABS, still stock other than a medium wind screen. You, and others, are correct, the rear suspension is unpleasant and perhaps too hard to be safe. Doesn't take much, a depressed manhole cover, and it can bounce a rider off the seat. Working on what to swap in, otherwise delighted. Wasn't expecting all admirers who stop to look and comment.
I have a 21 Bobber with 10K miles on it and its been nothing but a dream. FYI, change the OEM seat ASAP if you get one.
I've been surrounded by Indian motorcycles,
at work over the last two years.
I grew up in a Harley family,
& Personally
I look forward to having a bobber scout and a Chieftain.
Seeing Indian motorcycles versus Harleys in the shop,
Indiana are there for regularly scheduled maintenance,
Harleys are in because they rattled loose then pissed oil out til they nearly fried.
Not an opinion just an observation
I bought a 2021 Scout Bobber since I had sp much fun riding for 2 years on my 2018 Scout Bobber. Sure, its a bit uncomfortable when I hit an unexpected pothole here and there. But overall, I love being low to the ground while experiencing a smooth rumble. Oh... and people stop me constantly to ask questions and take pics.
By the way... Im 6'2 and as long as I dodge the potholes, my body is completely at ease my enjoying the music playing on my helmet speakers.
Have a 2020 scout bobber twenty (variant with wire wheels, tractor seat, mini apes) and it is a great bike. Mods and build have been documented on my youtube channel. I've had zero problems with 2 years of ownership and many miles and smiles.
I have a 2018 scout bobber and it’s awesome. Harsh ride until I swapped the suspension with legend front and rear and it’s sooo much better. However with the compromised riding position and my arms being on the shorter size the reach is pretty dramatic, and my bum goes numb relatively quickly. It’s so much fun and a basic yet visceral, and beautiful.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
If anything, I watch this channel for the funky/weird end tags....i'll keep watching.. yammie nooooo ooooooo ooooooo oooooooob....
Im not one to knock anyones choice in rides. I have a 2020 bobber 20 abs. Intake,exhaust and tune among some other mods. Having ridden my friends Harley on occasion before my Scout I found it to be a better fit and feel for me. And for its size, weight, power and price point you get alot of bang for your buck. As for comfort if you change the pegs out you can get more comfort and better lean angle.
Yammie, guess what....I sold my sport bike to get a Harley. Best decision ever. I love everything about cruisers, looks, power delivery and comfort. ..Sport/ Supersport bike are for your kids who doesn't respect life, after a really close call while speeding over 100 mph in the city I decided that was not for me.
And the sad part is that the only fun you can have with a sport bike is either speeding, on track or wheeling. Everything else on them is a PAIN or boring.
@@Totemparadox Coming back a year later to this comment I got to say people will never be happy. I got another sport bike but only ride it on Friday morning when going to the office. The Harley on the other hand is my daily gas station ride for cigarettes.
Bro, please. The people need you to do a video on 2022 triumph bonneville bobber. Even if u can compare it to the scout bobber.
Why do you need to hear this guy read the wiki of a bike he's never seen in person?
It's a BOBBER, don't expect it to be the "ultimate" crusier. I own one and love it and use it for what it's meant for, inner city streets, short crusie.
I've been really waiting for you guys to make a video about the Scout Bobber. I've been riding the bike since February 2022 and couldn't be happier. Of course, some changes had to be made: footrests, exhaust, cosmetics. All in all this is a wonderful bike, very beautiful and powerful. I don't want to give her away anymore.
Literally just bought one Thursday. I'm in love. Coming from a Suzuki Boulevard C50T, it's an amazingly fun bike to ride. I also sat on a brand new Scout Bobber Rebel, and it was way more comfy with it's mini apes, and solo comfort+ seat. But I didn't get this bike for comfort.
Bought me a brand new 2022 scout bobber twenty on June 24th and wrecked it aug 1st lolol.
Super easy to work on, swapped out the stock pipes for a fp combat 2in1, went to a new seat style, added the Indian performance air intake, threw on a map, swapped out the swingarm for a 300mm setup and I absolutely love this bike!
@Cheezit What 300 did you go with (got a link)? It's my wish list.
Wife works for Indian, alot of people comes test ride the Indians and lo and behold, used Harleys for everyone.
Lol, I once heard a very smart quote. "NO man is ever 5'11.."
Got the Scout Rogue and couldnt be happier with it. Its everything in a cruiser I have ever wanted. And its engine is crazy sporty and quick. Not your average cruiser
I bought my scout bobber last year and it was my dream bike. Problem was the seat was awful. Recently got into an accident with it and just finally got it back, but I’m a little anxious to ride it again for fear of someone hitting me again
I've owned a scout bobber for a year, granted, I've never owned a bike besides dirtbikes growing up, but fuck. It's the most fun I've ever had on the road, it's slick black, sexy as hell, and fast. Had to switch out the exhaust with Vance and Hines Twin Slash to make it purr like Cerberus, bike is out of a Norse mythology in terms of awesome. I've had other bikers compliment my bike constantly out of absolute envy and regret. Basic bike looks like something that would fly out of a burning vortex from hell to rock the earth with METAL.
I've had My 2021 Indian Scout Bobber in White Smoke for over a year ,Love it 💟
That explanation at the beginning of the spot is spot on about me. Ride a Hayabusa many years and ready for something a bit more docile
Thanks for the video Yammie- I thought you presented a pretty good summary for the bike. I ride a variation of the scout; rogue 60. Kinda the little brother of the reg scout at a 2500 discount in cost. After riding it near daily and adjusting it to fit my 6’3 frame, it works. It’s not without a few flaws, mostly small personal preferences but so be it. I think they are excellent bikes for newbs or intermediate riders looking to “sport cruise”
Once you tame the smaller 60, a tune and some aftermarket upgrades make it a long lasting enjoyable bike- with a v-twin cruiser, grabbing some torque and revs and HP can be very noticeable with a tune. Overall I love it as a daily bike but would like a dual sport down the road too. My wife is about to become a ninja so we will look awesome and unexpectedly different cruising together down the road-
Oh bury me not on the lone prairie.
I had a bobber for a year. Great bike but Im 6 ft tall and it made me bits go numb >< so I upgraded to an FTR. Funnest bike I’ve ever ridden!
I recently bought one this past weekend and I’ll be honest is my first motorcycle is 2022 and I am in love with that bike and I got options for other bikes but the style the sound is worth every penny mine also came with the stage 1 exhaust and it sounds great by the way thanks for the info💪💪
So where does the Triumph Bobber fit in?
Love my 2020 Scout Bobber. Switched out the horrific stock seat for a Corbin, went with the V&H slashcuts for exhaust, and upgraded the rear shocks with the Super Shox that are designed exclusively for the ISB. All that made it a much better bike, but it’s still not an ideal long distance bike, but that’s not what it’s designed for. It’s amazing for tearing around town and short hopping to the beach. Definitely what I was looking for.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Did the Super Shox change the seat height at all? A lot of the vids I've seen and owners I've talked to said the height increased a bit after they switched out their shocks
@@jamesmin1239 If they increased the seat height, it was so little I did not notice. If you call Super Shox they’ll actually walk you thru everything and recommend just what you’ll need. I was very pleased with the service and the product transformed the bike.
Best purchase I made was the scout bobber. Not a fan of Harley and what they making now. People will hate on Indian being built by Polaris but it’s made in the US still and is high quality.
Got the Scout Bobber Sixty as my first bike. Love it.
I have been wanting a scout ever since I saw Polaris debut it back in 2015. So in 2021, as an early bday present to myself, I got a scout bobber in burnt orange. I love the hell out of this thing. I do not regret buying it. For anyone looking to get one, I recommend swapping out the seat or getting a seat cover. The seat is not made for long rides. Everything else is up to your preference
Thinking of selling my gsxr 750 for a cruiser. Indian scout bobber is one of my options. And the first few seconds of this video just was too real for me 😂
I beg to differ. I think the new Harley Sportster S is the bike Harley built to compete. It’s slightly more powerful then the scout and has a more modern speedo.
I’ve had an Indian scout since 2017 and I still love it. I don’t think I’ll ever sell it. The engine is bullet proof. Polaris did a great job with the Indian brand. They appealed to the younger generation that knows Harley as “an old man’s bike.”
I bought my Indian scout bobber probably two months ago it is my first motorcycle I have ever owned and I am in love with it
I got a scout bobber a few months ago as my first bike. Best decision I’ve ever made. It’s pretty quick, sounds amazing with V&H slashcuts, and is insanely fun to ride. Of course, I’ll have to change the seat soon since it’s kinda shit
Can’t wait for the day I’ll get Indian scout bobber as my first bike
As a former crotch rocket squid who’s now in his golden years, I feel attacked
You got me in the first 15 seconds. Sold my ninja. Done flying around in that death trap I’ve had my fun. Bought one of these 😂
The scout bobber is nice, too low for me, so I went with the Indian Chief Bobber Dark Horse. The Chief sits a little higher with more power and air cooled , both are great bikes, especially for the price, cheaper than a Harley
They rip, trust. Swap the seat swap the shocks and it’s surprisingly nimble and quick. Edit: Throw a loud pipe on there so your neighbors can enjoy too.
Definitely need to change the seat on mine lol, what kind of shocks should i go with?
@@TheInsanityFiles So I installed the Fox adjustable ones, they are easy to set for rider weight. Even though the front forks still need a swap, the difference is very noticeable. Also, I grabbed the Mustang seat
So just buy an octane
@@mortalterrorRE i'm thinking about getting the syndicate step up seat, do the fox shocks raise the rear a lot?
How do I do this? Looking into getting one as my first bike 🚴🏽
The Indian Scout Rogue has been absolutely gorgeous!
Bought my ISB in 2019 and haven't looked back. So much fun to ride. I start to suffer withdrawals if I go too long without a blatt around the local streets. Would be great if there were more parts and mods available, but like yammie said it's a great bike out of the box.
I have one and I feel like I'm riding on luxury. It's exactly what I wanted in a motorcycle
the scout has got to be about the lowest reving ice I've ever seen. 83 rpm is really something
Wigwam
I'd like an Indian Scout (non bobber jobber). They just seem cool and Indian has a good reputation overall.
Had a Honda 500 for a year. Now have a 21 Scout 60, not the bobber version. I love it and has plenty of power for my needs and is still fun to ride in some twisty areas. Seem to have quite a bit of aftermarket support, although not as much as Harley, but still plenty of options to choose from. I do seem to get a bit of a snub at bike night so there is that...
What about the triumph bonneville bobber? I would love to know you opinion on how it fits against the scout bobber
Got my ISB, in matte black of course lol, about 3 weeks ago and I love it. It's a bike I always wanted and I honestly have no real complaints. I'm 5'6" with hobbit legs and its a great fit. I already changed out the exhaust to the Freedom Performance 2-1 Combat and it does the engine justice. The stock exhaust didn't do it at all. I've done other minor changes, but my main concern was the exhaust. Eventually I'll change the shocks out since the stock ones can really do a number on the ol' coccyx 😅.
Between the Indian Scout Bobber and Triumph Bonneville Bobber, I’d buy the Triumph for reasons in order: comfort, engine, fit and finish, looks. To each his own, we all love to ride!
Hell yeah, I would love to see a scout bobber as a giveaway bike!
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Definitely would sign up for this

When he just described you in the first minute of the video perfectly…..
I threw on piggy back shocks a better seat and I love it. I've had my 2022 scout bobber maroon smoke color for 3 weeks and already over 500 miles. I cannot complain it's everything I've ever wanted!
I’ve got the Indian scout,I absolutely love it.
must be really fun to have such a cool bike i wish i had one of those feel lucky for having one
Forgot to mention the Truimph Bobber
Have a Scout Rogue on order. Did it despite the poor reviews on suspension, but as everybody knows, looks first!
🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@RickyBobber thank you, channels like you and Dad With A Bike (RIP) influenced my decision as well as thought process on mods.
Love my bobber! I’m 6’3” and it takes some part swapping but it always gets compliments ever time I ride…..don’t think the rebel would….
I have the Scout Rogue. Feels great and have added lots of accessories already. Still in the break in period.
Welcome to The Tribe, Brother. And... Semper Fi, Mac.
The bike makes you look badass
You forgot a letter…. “S”. It’s not just “too low” but its really “too S-low”
Triumph Bobber…..the only real comparison to the Indian….
2019 scout 60 new rider no issues. Love my bike.
I'm more of a sport bike guy but I wouldn't mind giving this bike a test ride.
Bonneville bobber would be a great comparison
As a bobber owner, I’m honestly surprised you didn’t touch on the seating quality, and I don’t mean that necessarily in a good way. Sure, stock seats in general on most bikes aren’t really anything to write home about, but combined with the bobbers already low shocks, you feel every literally every bump, and that’s not a great feeling for cruising. If you’re in the market for a bobber, I’d definitely recommend looking into getting a much comfier seat as soon as possible, your lower back will thank you. Signed a 27 year old squid 😅
Think it'd be intresting to see a comparison video between scout bobber and the triumph bobber since they both are aimed at the same idea
If I had to do it over I would have went with the Scout vs the Rebel1100. The Scout looks and sounds beefier than a Rebel 1100.
I thought I really wanted a scout until I sat on a chief and scout side by side at Americade. At 6’2” the scout felt a little too cramped for me
I was about to purchase a Scout. I was trying to decide between the base Scout and the Bobber. Then the Chief came out and my dealership had ONE on the floor. Boom! Sold!
