The Scout 101 is the same price as the HD Sportster S. One thing is for sure the Scout 101 looks better than the Sportster S.
Meh, they're about on par imo, but the HD shouldn't have put the large front tire on the S, it ruins it. Some custom Sportster S's I've seen look great.
The Sportster S seat is like riding a cinder block. Acceleration was great but I wasn't comfortable.
The new Indian Scout sets a new standard for the class. it is beautiful in contrast to the lumpy over "radiatorised" hose chaotic, exposed wire, A and B sided, bundled up Sportster S and Nightsters. The Indian Motorcycle designers made a stylish machine. And it is a full platform of bikes!
@@mosgor yeah, I wouldn’t go that far with it.
Huge improvement. Even just a gas gauge would've been better, but they did a lot and its great. Love the sport and the 101.
Definetly a clear improvment. Not like the current gen was bad its just they simply defeated their nearewt competition and decided to proclaim victory by completely reinventing nearly every critical every part better 😂😂😂😂
It's garbage options and shit they force you to have not everyone wants.
@@Shrewd_Enoughyou can do a basic model with nothing if you want😂
@@bowclipscarter634 no. You can't. There is only one option to choose. You can add but can't take away.
@@Shrewd_Enough You can take away… just buy the bike and get rid of what you don’t want…
I see alot of hate in the Comments, but im NOT in that Camp, i Actually Like the '25 Bobber. Bigger Motor, Bigger Tank, Fuel Gauge, big Display with Modes Now, and an LED Headlight Standard. Only Issue will be what older Models drop in Price to Now. If you can get a Bobber for like $10k or the 60 for $8k compared to the New One at $15k, will come down to is $5k WORTH the Upgrades.
One correction: this is the 2025 lineup, not 2024... Anyway, love the Classic!
The 101 has a lot in common with the Sport Chief.
It does... but with the 130 pound weight difference, the Scout 101 is going to handle so much better.
True. They both look like Honda cruisers.
And with the Scout Rogue really..
Nice looking machines. Look forward to actually hearing them someday.
I have the Rogue, with 2-1 exhaust and CAI. I already do 110HP, so power wouldn’t change.
I do like the keyless and the display.
101 would be where to go, especially with the suspension.
The engine in the 101 is larger capacity, so there will be room for performance over the current model.
True. It’s not going to be a huge difference
Love that 101! Beautiful!!!
It’s simply a rebadged Victory Octane, with a few splashes of techy glitter. Could buy 3 Octanes for that one Scout.
@@medwords7265Complete ignorance.
LOVE THE WHOLE LINE OF THESE NEW Scouts... may have to make some room in the stable for the Bobber.
The thing that bugs be is the engine. Looks like plastic covers. Rear fender is cleaned up so that’s cool, tank looks similar to the Chief so that’s cool.
I am new to motorcycles but the scout has everything I have been looking for!
The full rear fender looks like a VStar 650 fender. Looks great it just reminds me of my buddies bike.
Love Indian motorcycles ❤, im adjusting to the new range, but still love them. Especially the 101 🤩
My favorite is just the plain Scout. Not the Bobber, not the others, just the plain Scout. It a B.A. on its own
My shop posted about them earlier. Good looking bikes. But my heart's set on a rocket 3 storm.
If that 101 came out when I got my Sportster S it would’ve been one hell of a tough decision
Did a good job on the exhaust. Much better than the Sportster. There should be some decent aftermarket exhausts available.
Scout 101 is beautiful and badass. Im liking what polaris is doing by offering several different variations of present models. Being a Victory owner i can say that i wish they treated that brand the same way.
Wow that’s a winner,love it!
Does the scout classic able to dress it up such side bags and passenger seat with sissy back on quick release? Also does the classic also have the new 1250 cc engine!
What brand are the shocks?
Beautiful bike but summer is speeding by. When are they going to show up at dealerships?
what about lean angle? That was a huge complaint on the earlier models? I really like the two into one exhaust; looks great. The adjustable piggyback shocks seems a nice upgrade the earlier models needed. Are they still doing the Rogue option? Hard to tell in the photos in this video as they show different front wheels and fairings but don't talk about which model gets those.
The "sport" one looks identical to the current rogue model without the 10" bars
Available in May? So '23, '24 models will drop in price?
The 101 looks pretty nice
So no more rogue? Is that the sport version now? Also fuel gauge is the best thing out of this like up. Not a big fan of the single pipe or the new heads finish.
You can get a dealership tune on any new scout and get 111hp just like the 101 scout.
They answered my wish list and then some, so props for that. But the saddle bags still don't have a lock on them, the same complaint I had about the Chief Limited. It makes them useless. No spoke wheels on the Bobber any longer. In the roll out video, they exclaimed the larger gas tank. Is 1/10 of a gallon increase worth the fanfare? The new/old (Victory Octane) motor is very plain, and modern looking. I would love all the modern amenities on my Scout Bobber 20, but the redesign is leaving me a bit cold.
Cruise control on limiteds is huge bro. Huge
Got the 2021 bobber in white. Not sure if the tech upgrades are worth trading in
I always say the same thing. Then I end up upgrading and kick myself for “wasting“ money. Just need to be happy with what I have and not chase the new cool thing.
It is different enough that you could justify it as an advancement in the model. Tbh I didn’t expect them to completely change it
Brother you can tell they declared victory over their current competition and decided to celebrate by reinventing it better in every way 😂 indian out here snorting cocaine or something illegal bro. Its like they reinvented every piece it wasnt just a refresher
Pleased with the improvements especially the 101. Going to 1250 higher compression and 111 HP to put them on par with the Sporster S was needed. I love the 2-1 pipe over the 2-2s. I like the improved engine look also. Better more usable bike than the Sporster S.
Ive been waiting for scouts to get this.
I nearly bought a new old Scout and had dreams of adding a Freedom 2-1 exhaust, Pathfinder headlight, extra lights, comfort seat, beach bars and the dealer didn’t even tell me there was a new one coming out in early April, so I waited. From what I see there’s a big price increase as who the hell would just buy a Limited + Tech their top of the line and see it loose a good few grand if they tray and off load it a year later. We get $ price but it’s in £’s…… I might aswell get a Chief and pay £20k and customise it slowly.
Reminds me of the Honda family of 1100 line. You had the Areo,the classic the saber the Phantoms etc etc. Do theses new one make the older ones obsolete?
I have 2 1100 sabres... It's a dinosaur compared to this. Carbureted no gas gauge no computers. Obsolete? Nah. Still ride on the same road. Same wind. Same gas.
in my opinion you cant really beat the rebel 1100t right now for price. Rider modes, cruise control, showa suspention, batwing fearing, and small bags. all for $10,000-11,000 depending if you want the DTC or standard clutch. especially for a shorter rider.
@@gordorox7144 I had one on order but when my 1100 came in it was maroon and it should have been black.
Now I ride a 2019 Indian Scout Bobber
No, these new ones make the older ones look even better. (Unless you're in the market for a Honda 1100,of course...)
I like the 101 scout and it is definitely on my radar to buy
Are these new high High Horsepower Scouts able to run faster than 100 MPH or is the speed limiter set at 100 MPH ?
Does the scout 101 remind anyone of the Harley Davidson Street Rod 750 from back in 2017-2020? I know the power isn’t the same or the gauge cluster but many of the other features remind me of the Street Rod. It would have been nice if HD kept making those, it would give the 101 competition and maybe have brought the price down a bit. I think if they kept making the street rod they would have many of the same features that are on the 101. I do like the new scout lineup but I think the price is just a bit too high for an entry into the Indian world of motorcycles.
If I had money for a second bike no doubt the 101 is my pick
101 looks 👌🏻
Man I'm Glad I Got A 2021. Have Not Liked Anything They've Done Since Then. Traction Control Would Be Nice But I Hate The Digital Speedometer
Those bikes looks good, I wish I can get one! Where is the Time Machine at I need to take 30 years off my body!
I'm an indian motorcycle enthusiast...
I really like these.
Indian 101 scout or HD sportster S 1250?
Doesn't look as good as the older style but the tech upgrades are great.
It looks much better than the older model. Stronger frame
101 wonderful
That 101 scout looks beautiful.
Exquizite indubitably.
Meh. A bunch of shit on there not everyone wants. And only two color options. And they are charging you for those. I bet when they finally offer a black model it'll be like the last "custom" paint on the rogue. About $3k price difference.
a lot of effort went into not showing the left side of these bikes
Gas gauge???
They look like the Chiefs now.
Looks great 👍 I think the back Fender could be stretched a bit but the is still cool. Nice bump in power and torque too
2017 victory octane has 104hp
So they made a much bigger motor with much higher compression and only added a couple horsepower?
Must be saving some room for power gains over the upcoming years?
Or emissions reductions
Great new design, looks nothing like the old design if you get into the weeds. Engine, frame, tech, sheet metal etc. the engine design is so much cleaner than HD’s half assed attempt at a water cooled engine. The clutch side of the Sportster is hideous!
Crazy how these prices are in japanese touring territory. Thank goodness for competition
La bobbita ❤preciosa y la mas cara para mi,,,,si la rojita la primis
You know you’re doing a good job when I’d rather watch y’all’s video than the manufacturers reveal. No slight to Indian though, good looking bike. Too small for my frame though.
Bobber: 2 inches of rear travel? No thanks. I like my spine.
The “Indian Scout Classic” looks more like the original 101 Scout, than the new 101 scout.
porque no inventan un accessories que puedas agregar más gasolina para correr largas distancias 3.5 es muy poco
I love Harley and Indian, but Harley needs to copy Indian's notes when it comes to making a liquid-cooled engine that still sounds great.
101 looks great but failed on price!
Why doesn't Indiana offer a adventure bike yet?
All those development dollars in the new engine for 5 hp? 😂
Don't really like all the additional plastic covering things up. Never liked the license plate off to the side of the fender. Personally, a 60 cubic inch motor is enough for me. Guess I can get one on the cheap when these are released.
They look better this year. At least they don't all look like they were sprayed from stem to stern with a rattle can of black paint in shop class this year.
The new 101 is indeed a beautiful machine alright, however not being a fan of forward foot controls and especially so on higher-performance motorcycles meant for more sporting purposes (read: bikes meant to be ridden on twisting roads at higher speeds) I wish the foot controls on it had been placed more in the mid-position. This then would of course have meant the seat would have needed to be a few inches higher in order for the rider's knees not being uncomfortably bent, however in my case and with a 34 inch inseam, I've never cared about a bike having that low a seat height to begin with. And yes, I do understand that these bikes are considered "Power Crusiers", but still the idea that Indian doesn't seem to offer a variant of their new 101 Scout with more a "Standard" riding position seems a shame to me and thus lessens my interest in ever purchasing one. --Dwight in Arizona/owner of 2016 Indian Springfield, 2002 Triumph Bonneville, 1970 Triumph Bonneville
Mid controls are available as an option
@@zeepro_tv Yes, BUT and as I mentioned earlier about the seat height then needing to be raised, will Indian also then offer a higher seat as an option? My guess would be, no. And in addtion, IF they would offer both of these options, then I'll bet you're takin' an addtional $1500-2000 cost for them to be added to the 101's already base price of around $17K, and of which I would think should not come at an added price.
Gorgeous far better quality, looks,performance. INDIAN in recent years have making far superior products than the Harry Davidson clothing company propaganda machine. Well done Indian!!
With its 13l fuel tank the Super Scout is definitely NOT a "long-haul touring bike", that's ridiculous, no range at all.
Where the wild things are
My Goal for 2025 scout 101
Too bad about the jugs, now they look almost as cheap and plasticky as Harley's.
Look better than harleys. They couldve done a worse job they obviously wanted it to look sleek it looks better than harley where it looks like a toy.
@@TheAnnoyingBoss I agree, I just think they looked much better as they were. And Harley's jugs look like they're made by Fisher Price, toy-like indeed.
Crazy that Indian announced this already when dealers are still sitting on 23 models and why would I buy a 24 at this point?
The current gen this one is replacing is still king of the 1200 cruiser class right now. Also if you want the aluminum frame you might prefer it still theyre really good bikes
(Because the 24 looks so much better!)
Not a huge fan of the new engine cases at all.
The Polaris 101 looks amazing looks way better than the hot mess Harley Davidson, nightster
The scout Polaris engine never had the problems or the gremlins of the Harley Davidson 1250 engine, which still has not been perfected.
Polaris will sell a ton of these 101s. It looks amazing. Just the price may be a hindrance. 🤷🏻♂️??
If Harley Davidson was smart, they would bring back the XLCR with the 1250 engine 👍
Either or they’re both American companies, so take your pick🇺🇸
Still needs a much bigger gas tank.
Honestly these bikes don't feel like they have cruiser soul. They are fast and fun, but feel like weird heavy naked bikes.
Few things have soul quite like this in todays market my friend. The iron 1200 is dead. This is the champ now clearly and indian is flexing on the haters i might have to save up the small fortune for one. I enjoy seeing indian kicking butt. They assassinated the competition and then decided to reinvent it better in every way this is good stuff man 😂 1200 segment is in a low spot right now indian is like this unaffected beacon of hope at this point. The honda fury is so bad in comparison. Sportster s is just the ugliest thing. This is the soul man
@@TheAnnoyingBosswell said my friend. These bikes are beautiful.
Sportster S from Harley has a 1250cc Revolution Max for a few years already with a 121hp engine VS Indians new 105hp 1250cc. Indian has to tweak it a littler more. I agree not my style of bike. Just comparing apples to apples. I do believe the Harley has a better resale though. Just my $0.02@@TheAnnoyingBoss
Oh no...
Well they are nice but my 2019 is starting to feel like the red headed step child
Well I guess no more Bobber 60?
This is a MASSIVE LEAP FORWARD! WOW. Now, what would it take to bring back the Victory Kingpin?
Amen to that! They just rebadged the Victory Octane and gave it 10 more HP and a bunch of techy glitter. Nice but I’ll keep my Octane!
I miss Victory bikes, they were very cool to me.
What about the transmission? Is it 6 speed? Why is nobody saying this?
yes
It's their last ones so...😢 Love it or hate it that's all you get.
Again, is this the 2025 ?
Why are non-inverted forks still a thing? Maybe save those for the adventure and off-road bikes.
This is why people still make fun of American motorcycles. Just get them updated to modern tech. They can still look old if you want.
I'd like to see a longitudinally mounted inline 4(like Indian used to make), but with a shaft drive. I'd like to see a slim version of around 1000 cc's, not a behemoth like the Triumph Rocket 3.
HAHA... just no.
@@stuartstogdill2406 That was an incredibly immense amount of useful, intelligent, and insightful information you added there. You must be a treasure and invaluable asset to any group you belong to.
I was hoping they would offer a smaller, simpler, more affordable option to be in the Royal Enfield segment. Guess i will have to buy the Shotgun.
They are supposed to have new Scout 60 variations to come later as cheaper options, so don't jump too quick.
New frame and radiator is a success, new motor design is a massive failure... the old one is much more pretty...
I think they were going for like a complimentary opposite. To prove to harley they can make a covered engine that actually doesnt look like a childs toy
I still don't get cruisers.
I get them
@@TheAnnoyingBoss i try. My wife has a softtail blackline. Maybe i need to ride it more.
Can't imagine why indian wouldnt want to send you two flat tires a new model review.
Cruzers have become buswa. Get a retro.😊
Re-birth of the OCTANE nice job Polaris!
I just need one ride mode... the "performance mode." Program the motorcycle to operate at peak efficiency and leave it alone. The throttle is plenty capable of managing the application of power. Those bikes have too many techy gimmicks to be appealing. If they wanted a performance oriented 101, they should have tuned everything for maximum performance and stripped all the touch screen, ride mode, GPS, keyless start, bluetooth stuff off the bike (added bonus, it might have shed another 30 lbs of crap off the bike). If it doesn't make the motorcycle go faster or handle better, then it should have been tossed in the waste bin. I don't need overly complicated menu systems that will read you your daily affirmations... Just make the bike reliable, and limit the troubleshooting decision tree something that will fit on one 8.5x11 sheet of paper. If I got stranded due to a keyfob not being recognized by the bike because the touch screen Speedo/GPS/Bluetooth/Satellite Radio/Call Connect unit glitched because of the heat from being in direct sunlight, vibration, dust, or water, I would be pissed.
Not a fan. I do like the digital cluster and gas gauge on the lower version.
Glad Indian has got rid of that awful double pipe setup. Fuel tank is still on the small side. That 101 looks very sharp. Hopefully twin discs will be a customisable option for the rest of the range.
If this new platform is successful, I’m trading the Nightster I just got. For those that claim it has no soul, you have to give the bike it’s soul. It’s always just an object to someone else.
What a way to mess something good
What do you mean it’s literally the same 😂
Its not the same at all. Dude have you got eyes?!@@Vic-xl7hu
Don't care much for these cruisers. I was secretly hoping for a proper 750 flat tracker.
the look of the motor is the biggest misstep, the existing engine is very pretty...the new engine is very bland looking...which detracts from alot of the character. the tank and bodywork looks more generic and older as well...its not bad, but like if there was no graphics this new scout could be anything...the existing/old Scout even without graphics you knew what it was. the radiator area has been a bit divisive i guess, so redoing that area isn't unexpected. The rear fender has sorta same issue that Chief line does, where its big and far from the wheel...Chief bikes have this even more pronounced...but here its there as well.
and the 101 and so forth should be available without the +tech stuff...they want 17 K for one, and that is just to much...plus digital displays aren't going to last as long...rather have the cheaper thing that will still work in 20 years...
So is no one gonna talk about the horrendous Spring/damper Rate Correction needed for this inefficient design?????
No, no, no. The new frame, tank, (gaudy) exhaust, radiator, rear fender, heads are a complete downgrade. The attitude of the older gen has been stripped off and the edges rounded. The Tech is nice, but it's now soulless. I'm glad I picked up the last year of the classic ISB.
Youre throwing a tantrum bro this is clearly the top of the 1200cc vtwin cruiser class. The current aluminum frame one is also still clearly better than the livewires the nightster sportser s... but the new one is clearly even better. Cruise control bro. Thank god
@@TheAnnoyingBoss No tantrum involved, I don't carry a purse. It's my opinion, and I disagree on the new frame, just too generic and takes away from the personality the ISB had. Like I said, the Tech (CC) is nice.
