Legendary American manufacturer Indian Motorcycle produces some of the most badass-looking bikes on the planet — motorcycles cool enough to even get people who don't ride to take notice. Now, the company has just announced their most aggressive versions of their iconic Scout model yet for 2022: the Scout Rogue and its more affordable counterpart, the Scout Rogue Sixty. Indian Motorcycle says the bikes will, not surprisingly, channel the "rogue spirit" inherent to motorcycle riding.
How does the Scout Rogue differ from the standard Scout? The Scout Rogue models come with a 19-inch front wheel, providing better handling and style. Other new features include a quarter fairing, blacked-out styling, a sport-style single seat and mini ape hanger handlebars.
The bikes will also be available with a range of accessories like smoked LED turn signals and adjustable piggyback shocks. Some of the features and accessories will also be available as á la carté additions to other Scout bikes.
If you're ready to plunk down for a Scout Rogue, but are worried you might need to upgrade your clothing game to match your new bike, you're in luck. Indian Motorcycle is launching a Rogue collection of men's and women's apparel. The collection pairs simple, clean lines and tones of black and gray to complement the Scout Rogue bikes' blacked-out style.
The Scout Rogue and Scout Rogue Sixty will start at $11,499 and $9,999, respectively. Indian Motorcycle says the bikes will arrive at U.S. and Canadian dealers in early 2022, which means they should be getting there pretty soon.
They are. On my Ducati, they are behind me. On the Indian they are way out in front.
Always wanted one of those. They feel like an electric motor - no vibration at all. But for too many reasons I'm still making do with my R75/7.
This new "Indian" (which it's not) is just another y-a-w-n.
Is that a 2 cyl opposed twin?
I had a 2 cyl opposed twin (Onan) in a tractor and it was a great engine.
Always liked that one, especially the contrasting seat.
I still like twins over triples. The latter is just weird.
One of the problems with retiring is my still working wife won’t let me get the Pan America 1250 Special I’m lusting after. Well, not and stay married . . .
Bkmk
I agree
I was riding a Yamaha XS 750 in Hawaii for 5 years. Smooth power through the shaft drive. I still miss it. )))
I had a big bike. (BMW 1200). It was getting to the point where it was unwieldy.
The thought of a nice, nimble thing for around town sounds nice. But where do I put the groceries?
Does it come with automatic parking, and a rear camera, and lane departure tech, and a 10 inch GPS system?
If not ...
NEXT!
Water cooled. Meh.
I don’t get this black motorcycle stuff they are doing nowadays.
Even had a Harley salesman try and tell me it was ‘Black Chrome’. I said no thanks.
Black makes it HARDER TO SEE THE MOTORCYCLE!.................
BTW, add me to your pinger list............
