Project 2016 Indian Scout Sixty Part 10 (Custom Paint, Tank Pads, Bobber Emblems)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- I put my 2016 Indian Scout Sixty back together after custom paint. TPN Color Lab did an epic job on painting my Scout's tins. Time to finally see what my vision for the custom Scout Sixty looks like in real life.
It's been a long 3yrs of saving and planning, but its well worth the wait. IMHO this color combo really works. The custom mix of Jeep Rescue Green with added House of Color Gold Pearl Flake really pops in the sun. I am extremely proud of the results.
I spend some time going over how to make custom knee pads using a Tech-Spec USA universal kit. I also take way too much time needing out on the alignment of the Scout Bobber emblems I choose to use on my Scout Sixty project.
For the most part the majority of the custom work on my 2016 Scout Sixty is completed. This probably won't be the last video, but for this stage I consider my Scout complete.
Thanks to TPN Color Lab for all the hard work and custom mixing of my one-off paint. I love it. Check them out online!!! You can ship bike parts for them to paint also.
Great guys at TPN Color Lab!

That colour is just fabulous, the whole thing is looking pretty cool, a great job Mike
Job well done. I just picked up a wrecked one of these, so I will be fixing it up and getting it painted. That is a great look for the bike.
That bike looks AMAZING, I'm so envious.
That Is possilby the most gorgeous bike Ive ever seen. I plan on getting a scout in about a year and that is definitley project inspiration!
Much Apprecaited! Thanks for watching!

My brother just bought a 2021, gonna turn him on to your channel, great vids, done nicely! Ride safe!
Stunning Vision Mike, Brought it all together better then Indian did... Enjoy it buddy, and ride safe both..!
Thanks bro! Much appreciated. Now I'll have time to work on Barney eh! LOL Cheers!
Mike
@@RenchRanch Go for it buddy! ...then we can all ride together when we ship the Harley and the Scrambler to come live in Texas with y'all in a big biker teepee!
Great job, thanks for showing your work and progress
Great job and colours,love the Scout
That all turned out sweet as Mike. Awesome!! You'll enjoy clocking up some miles this season now I'd say. Awrabesht bro. Al. 😉👍
That was fun. Thanks for sharing. See you next time.
STUNNING!
Looks brilliant, great job
I have to admit that the color would not have been my choice, personally. (Like you, I'm a fan of the Indian Red. However, what would have looked REALLY killer on that setup would have been silver Indian warbonnet emblems on the sides of the tank to really hit that retro vibe. Overall though, really nice customization. I just binge watched your entire series, as I'm planning on getting a Sixty myself next season.
Wow Mike can I just say Wow .. looks so awesome !!!!!
What a cool looking bike!
Mr Rench, congratulations !
Obrigado-Bro!!!
awesome bike
Oh Yes !! bloody gorgeous 👍🏻☮❤
beautiful bike...well done...now enjoy !
Absolute beauty. Im out of words for this one. Tastefully done mate and trust me I don't say this very often. One small recommendations though, i see you have underbar mirrors i have the same kind and its very hard to see clearly behind, especially if you have a pillion rider, i did stick 3 inch convex mirrors onto them, fit perfectly and are much safer. Im a sucker for looks and i had almost compromised safety for looks but this hack works great.
Melly rides her own bike so I never carry a pillion on my Scout. Never had an issue with my mirrors, BUT for sure I'll consider the little convex mirror. Thanks! Mike
Oh man does that look awesome!! Great work on the emblem and pads. Well worth the effort!
Looks great Mike, glad your happy with it 👍🏻
Nice Work, Good Job!
Amazing work Mike. Love it.
Great work Mike.
Looks great!
Nice color. beautiful.
The bike looks great with that paint, I've been looking for something to protect the top of my tank from my zipper as well, nothing is available so thank you for sharing your process.
I had a local body shop put PPF (paint protection film) where my knees are as well as part of the top of the tank as well as the front surfaces to protect from bugs and rocks. It's self-healing and most people don't notice it.
Very handsome bike 👍
Gonna share this video on some scout pages
Excellent work
are you sure the service manual doesn't say anything about not re-using the bolts (10) that hold the pump to the tank. ? Victory manual says not to re-use them. I do not know why. Also, I would of changed out the fuel filter while you had it apart. Great job with the color combo, looks excellent. Your belt is tracking correctly, towards the outside, just like it should.
For the Scout, there wasn't anything about not re-using the bolts in the service manual. There was only a torque spec and sequence for my bike. They didn't even have any thread lock or sealant. Maybe the design is different on the Vic's. My bike has hardly 3000 miles on it. The fuel filter just didn't need replaced yet. Unfortunately due to my crazy work schedule I just don't get to ride as often as I'd like to. If the bike had more miles on it, for sure I'd replace the fuel filter. Thanks for watching, much appreciated.
Mike
So, do you have a part number on the indian tank badge by chance?
I ordered them from the Indian Dealer directly, I don't have the part number. Sorry.
That is a very nice bike, love the color and all mods except for the saddle bags, somehow they look cheap. Congrats!!!!
Thanks. Well to each their own. I can tell you the saddlebags aren't "cheap" LOL. They are Leatherworks made in USA (and 100% leather, very thick) and are extremely well made. Maybe it's the Easy Brackets that make it look that way. I like them. I wanted something a little more simple and narrow than the factory bags. I also wanted to be able to remove them quickly hence the Easy Brackets.
Leatherworks puts an Indian-head Nickel style trim conch on their bags. Each are made to order by hand. You should check out their website. They really are well made.

So you have to pull the tank to clean or change the air filter?
What ever happened to the Barney project?
Oh..... Barney is still here. We've been building up parts and coming up with new ideas. More on the Rebel 250 soon! Thanks for watching!
Mike
Where did you bought that emblem? I am looking everywhere and cant find it
I just went to my local Indian dealer and had them order it as a replacement part. Any Indian dealer should be able to get it for you. Only took a few days to get in. However with today's supply shortages everywhere it could take longer. Thanks for watching.
Mike
@@RenchRanch Thank you.
Awesome color and the bike looks FANTASTIC, I myself own a scout sixty in black. Would you be willing to sell a set of the knee and top protector, ready to go and be put on? If so, let me know what the cost is, if you do this, thank you sir. Again, your bike is FANTASTOMUNDO !!!!
It would be cool if you could add a list of the tools used and a link in the description where to purchase them. Maybe you could become a partner with Amazon or something so you could get something for all your work.
nice color nice job
I have bought a Trask intake and Bassani exhaust with a power Commander V as per your suggestions. So nobody will do it on my my 2018 Indian Scout 60 ABS. Any suggestions?
Did you purchase the parts from your local Indian Dealer? For me, I installed all the parts myself. I purchased them from my local dealer as they price match most on-line stores. I could have had them do the installation but I like to work on the bike myself. It really depends on each dealer. Some will install aftermarket pipes, fuel controllers, intakes, accessories, etc.. and some will not. IMHO finding a reasonable dealer who will work with their customer is as important as getting a good deal on the price. Most bikers install all kinds of aftermarket parts and accessories. My dealer Spartan Cycle usually is reasonable about warranty issues as long as they did the installation of the parts. For me I wasn't really concerned with the warranty mainly because I work on my own bikes.
In your situation I think that you will need to call around. If your local Indian Motorcycle dealer won't instal the parts (and you can't do it yourself) you may need to find another shop to help you out. In theory, the warranty should still be valid unless a failure of an aftermarket part causes damage to the bike. Indian has no obligation to honor the warranty then. So it's usually up to the Dealer how or if they will handle the work. If you lived in the Michigan area, I would just recommend Spartan Cycle where I bought my bike. They are really a good bunch of people and work hard to help their customers. Best of luck finding someone to help with the install. Thanks for watching!
Mike
Can an Indian bike sixty be fitted for someone of my height which is about 5 ft ??
For sure. They already sit very low to begin with. Indian offers 3 different seat, handlebar, and foot control positions. In addition you can look at the Scout Bobber or Bobber Sixty. The Bobber's sit a little lower than the Scout. Go to a dealer and check one out. Thanks for watching!
Mike
@@RenchRanch thank you for the reply, I love the aesthetics of the Indian motorcycle and I'm hoping to get one this year for my 62 bday😂
Sharp lookin bike. 👍👍
i love your pacience, very cool bike
Dammnn, man. Your trick with the tank grips and painter's tape saved me a headache. I was fooling around with finicky ass tracing paper. Bike looks beautiful by the way.
Do you have any recommendations for getting a high heat aerosol touch up can made for exhaust scrapes?
I want TWO Indians.
I want a Challenger,
& A SCOUT Bobber.
What type of saddlebags r those?
Awesome bike!! How is this thing at Highway speeds? Having only 5 gears. Seriously considering buying this bike !! Thanks in advance and looks amazing !
what did a paint job like that cost you ? , if you don't mind me asking
Ha, all that work you put in to affixing the lettering, and here I am thinking about taking mine off. LOL Nice job, tho!
Really would like info from your installer for all install service. I have put it off for the reason of warranty. But would like to have these pipes and intake with PCV installed. How about USB connector?
I installed the parts myself. However my local Indian dealer (Spartan Cycle, Clinton Twp Michigan) is a DynoJet / PowerCommander dealer and have an in-house dyno. For my bike I really don't need to access the USB port as it was dyno tuned by Spartan and I didn't download any maps. My best advice is to work with your local Indian Motorcycle Dealer. Some are a lot more reasonable than others as far as covering warranty work with aftermarket parts. Thanks for watching.
Mike
WOW!
Question when you took out the fuel pump did you happen to see or notice if there was any way you could adjust the sensor for the fuel light ?what I would like to do if it’s possible to have the light come on sooner thanks for the videos man the new paint on the bike looks great 👍🏿
I don't think there is. It's not a float type level sending unit. It's capacitive I think. I don't believe you can adjust the level. The Scout uses CANBUS so if your into hacking LOL ;-) Thanks for watching.
Mike
if it is like the victory's, which it prob is... it is just a temp sensor. It changes resistance with temp, which the computer checks and lights the dash light when resistance gets to a certain number. Gas is colder than the area that is not in the fuel. So if you want to have it come on sooner, you would have to raise it higher than it currently is. It is just a little round cylinder type device. With some ingenuity, you could raise it up higher so it is out of the fuel remaining sooner than it is from factory. good luck
cool custom scout !
Nice saddle bags. Where did you get them?
how much was it to all get painted?
Why would you change an o ring seal and not change the fuel filter. Filter must be dirt cheap seeing how a rubber seal is 20 bucks.... nice bike like the color
Holy shit... That bike is sexy
Looks great, I'm just not a fan of the pad for your jacket. I'd find another jacket to wear that will not scratch the tank.
B E A UTIFUL!
I have one question. Where can one get those saddle bags?
They are from Leatherworks. You can order them and the Easy Brackets from their website.
leatherworksinc.com
Do you sell thoes tank pads?
Have you seen the new Fairing Indian is releasing for the scout ?
You always give a good brief.
don't ever lay that thing down it looks perfect!
Hey man, very nice,, how much did the paint work cost you. ??
Looks very nice bud great job
Where did you get the shield ove ethe light looks great I need to order that too for my scout
Thanks
Nice 👍👍👍😀
what is ur headlight?
Eagle Lights 5" LED Halo Projector with the black background. It's a super easy swap though you gotta watch the spring clips. Also if your bike is a Scout sixty or Bobber, the retaining ring may be very tight needing the inside edge sanded down. The chrome one has more clearance. Just Google Eagle Lights and you'll find it. Cheers!
Mike
Why buying the sixty if you had enough money to put in that bike the sixty isn’t the cheaper less powerfull versions?
Yes........(!?#*)
