2022 Indian Scout Rogue First Ride and Impression

2022 Indian demo days test ride of an Indian Scout Rogue
Took advantage of demo days to ride the 2022 Indian Scout Rogue. This bike has the 69 Cu In water cooled Engine and 6 speed gear box.
I enjoyed the ride as it was similar to my Indian Scout Bobber Twenty. Hit me up if you have any questions.

It'd be interesting to see a comparison between the Rogue and Victory Octane. I know the Octane is similar to the Scout to begin with, but the Rogue looks almost like a carbon copy.
That tach is badass. I wanted one so badly for my Scout, until I traded it in for a Springfield Darkhorse.

[@MessyGarageBMW]

I agree. That would be a good comparison. If felt a lot like my bobber for obvious reasons. I would like to take an octane for a ride at some point.

[@tpharo34]

Polaris is behind both of them so they would be very similar I think they made the Rogue with Octane in mind.

[@MessyGarageBMW]

@Tim Pharo yes, very similar, and the octane still has a fanbase that I think drove the rogue as you say. I believe different output numbers and rear wheel size for the octane, so it would be an interesting comparison and possibly a missed opportunity to not change rear wheel size on rogue to set it further apart from the bobber.

@@MessyGarageBMW wonder what a bigger tire on Rogue would do?

[@backwoodsfreak]

I think the skinnier taller wheel would pull it out of a turn easier making you fight it harder to nail the line going into the turn but would kinda form a "locked in" to the turn path maintaining an easier line throughout. IMHO if that makes any sense... my bobber seems to be able to turn anywhere at anytime with no effort I look the direction I want to turn lean and it goes there. At low speeds the bike weighs so little and is so low centered that it feels like your riding a rigid yz80. Love that bike but I Can't wait for my Springfield to get here its killing me... Rogue is a sexy bastard though. Loved my regular scout bobber.. It will be hard to drop it off at the dealership.

[@MessyGarageBMW]

Love both the scout bobber and the springfield. Thankful I'm able to have both in my garage and ride. The Springfield is a really nice ride. You will enjoy it for sure. Check out my Springfield Dark Horse content on the channel. I've got more coming as more mods are added to that bike.

[@tpharo34]

Love how your dog gets to ride. Where can you get that setup?

[@MessyGarageBMW]

I bought the helmet, harness and doggles on Amazon. I was surprised how chill she was riding the bike. :D

[@blueultra2]

Is that in Elkhart?

[@MessyGarageBMW]

Yes

[@blueultra2]

I was just there Saturday looking at the Rogue.

[@MessyGarageBMW]

@@blueultra2 cool. I have a bobber twenty and a Springfield dark horse I purchased there.

[@time_of_yer_life_eh_kid]

if it doesn't say "scout" on the tank - it's a 60.

[@MessyGarageBMW]

My scout bobber twenty doesn't say scout on the tank.

[@time_of_yer_life_eh_kid]

hmmmm, could be different between the bobber and rogue. On the Rogue, if it says scout, it's the 69ci engine. @@MessyGarageBMW
