Custom Indian Scout
Bucket List ✔️
My husband bought a Victory Vegas 8 Ball last year - stole my idea off of my bucket list!
I custom ordered my Indian Scout in December and picked it up in March in Langley, BC.
I loved the willow green & ivory Vintage Chief, but it was too big for me. I just got my license in February 2017. So I contacted Indian about making a mini Chief. This is what I ended up with....stage 2 Crusher exhaust, mini apes, seat, saddle bags, passenger seat & back rest, luggage rack, big fat white wall tires on spoke rims, custom paint with gold leaf, kurakyn spear grips.
Absolutely love my bike - especially since it is louder than my husband's!

Beautiful and Strong
I love this bike, it's strong and very easy to ride. Can't go anywhere without someone making great comments about it.( I don't mind ). A lot of people take pictures of it everywhere I go. Love the idea that it's built in the USA! Thank you for that! My son and I bought 2 the same day. He loves his too. I'm a pretty big fellow and it hauls my wife and I with no problems.
Thanks Indian, I'm very very satisfied with my new Scout. I had Harley's in the past, great rides, but my Scout is far and above my favorite.
I'd recommend Indian to anyone, new rider, or old salts like me.
Thanks for a great bike!

Love it...but have had more problems than I'd like
I loved the bike when I bought it...everything about it when I first rode it home and the following weeks were great...but after that I've had so many problems that I've began to regret my decision. Handle bar grips came off while I was riding, I've run out of gas twice because the low fuel light doesn't come on until I'm out of gas, the coolant is leaking constantly, it's had trouble starting numerous times, my horn stopped working, the suspension has worn drastically and that's just off the top of my head. I like the look of the bike and if I could trust it then i would be happy to buy another one day... unfortunately I do not.

Excellent Motorcycle, reliable and fits my needs!
I made a deposit on my 1st run 2015 Indian Scout August 7, 2014. My wife took me to Spirit lake Iowa on my 70th birthday Sept 2 2014 to watch them building the Indian Motorcycles. My bike arrived in Greer South Carolina and my grand son Andrew and myself drove 2-1/2 hours to Greer SC dealership and picked it up May 5, 2015. I have a passion for Motorcycles and the Scout is at the top of my list. Quality, reliability, plenty of power and looks great. Best regards, Steve Pitt retired Military USAF and US Army vet

Great Bike For Beginners And Seasoned Riders Alike
Great bike here! Lots of power and the weight is all at the bottom of the bike so it handles EXTREMELY well. This is what would make it a great bike for beginners. It's also fairly light and small, but not too small. I'm 6'1", 220lbs and I don't look silly on it (at least I don't think I do lol). This bike looks great and rides like a dream. The only thing that I truly did not like about it, and from what I've heard on the street I'm not the only one, is the heavy, bulky and IMO, ugly exhaust slip-ons. Too quiet AND they are so heavy. Easy to switch out though, so certainly not a reason to pass on this machine. Go buy one, you won't be sorry!!

I can flat foot it at 5'7".
I bought my scout with 500 miles on it in February. I'm pushing 3500 as of April 7th. I added the ammo can I had in my garage in 15 minutes. The only issue I have with it however, people are constantly gathering around it. This bike draws a small crowd anywhere I go. A 5 minute break for gas always ends up with me letting other riders sit on it and being filled with a sense of humble pride when I see them grinning ear to ear.
Go get one!

Amazing first motorcycle
I've had the bike only 3 months and I have to say I am more than happy with my purchase.
For my first bike this was a fantastic choice, tons of power that you'll never get bored of, and can't really ask for more of. And really lightweight which is fun to play around with.
The Scout deep down feels like a sport bike dressed up as a cruiser.
Polaris and Indian did a great job bringing back the Scout, my only complaint would be that after 3,000 KM I brought my bike in and found out I have a bad starter, but that's the name of the game and to be expected with newer vehicles, luckily it is warranty covered so nothing to sway my review too drastically.

Nimble, mean, and good looking.
I now have only put 800 miles on my little Indian Scout and have to say I love this bike. Great looking and slick. Runs amazing I twist the throttle and this thing goes. Very nice features with everything easy to remove in a snap. I have to say one draw back is the sound. This is a 1133cc motor and it sounds like a 650cc. I know you offer stage 2 exhaust but 800 dollars is really steep and I'm disappointed that I have to go with andftermarker pipes to make it sound like I want it too. Great bike overall with performance e though you hit this one right on the head. Doesn't miss a beat with flawless shifting and loads of fun to ride all the time. I will be holding on to this bike for many years and hope to pass it down to one of my kids to tell them the story of Polaris when it first started making Indian bikes and ND giving that name a real American meaning again.
