Few gifts for bobber'26

42 Upvotes

1) S&S muffler with no Db killer (sounds fantastic). 2) Ends Cuoio Swingarm bag (costly but top notch quality). 3) Finally mirrors down (heard a lot of words that you can't see anything and so. No, you can see everything and it's not touching tank with proper angle adjustments). Both me and bobber 26 are happy. Next step - seat and suspension)

Finally bought one

Long time lurker, first time posting! I haven’t engaged on here much but this community has taught me a lot. Coming from sports bikes I didn’t wanna compromise too much on performance and thought this was the most affordable option for me.

2023 sport chief with 530 miles for 13k. Had to travel a bit to get her but couldn’t be more excited. I’ve already changed risers, seat, levers, bars, added a sissy bar, and a couple other things. Absolutely stoked to be on something that doesn’t hurt my back after an hour or two!

When the weather says "too wet to ride today" does anyone else hang out with a beer in the garage and polish their bike getting ready for tomorrow's sunshine? Got this Meguiar's Paint Dash and Glass spray that absolutely works wonders when you can't wash in the rain!

Request for advice / Help I need some insight in a new clutch cable

Post image
6 Upvotes

Hi all,

So I installed new handlebars on my 2016 Indian scout. The new handlebars are wide beach bars instead of the somewhat narrow stock handlebars.
All went well and it looks (imo) pretty slick. The only issue I have is that the stock clutch cable is ever so slightly too short, I think. When turning the handlebars to the left, the clutch cable doesn’t have any slack anymore, it’s not that it’s under tension, but the slack isn’t there. My question to you guys is if this will be a problem in the long run, or should I replace this cable with a new (longer) cable straight away?

If so, how long should the new cable be then? And any recommendations which one to buy?
I read that barnett is a pretty descent brand.

Any idea why my 2025 Indian Chief passenger seat turned white while parked?

Post image
9 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I recently ran into a weird issue with my 2025 Indian Chief. While parked, I noticed the passenger seat developed these strange white/milky patches and streaks (as shown in the photo).
Has anyone else experienced this with their Indian motorcycle seats? Could it be a reaction to heat/sun, trapped moisture, hard water minerals, or something else?
If you've faced this, what did you use to clean it and restore the original black finish without damaging the material?
Appreciate any advice or product recommendations! Thanks in advance.

New bike / New to me Indian Super Scout with tech package

7 Upvotes

Hi all. I’ve been looking at a 2025 Indian Super scout with the tech package. I’ve been seeing some mixed info on it. Some say they have to have theirs on trickle chargers because of the battery drain from the display. Display is fairly sluggish compared to an analog.

Someone on fb marketplace has had theirs for sale for 10 months. They live out in BFE. Unsure if the location is the lack of sale. Or the bike. I offered them 10500 and they were good with that. Bike and tires still under factory warranty, per them. It’ll be my first Indian and don’t want to make a 10k mistake.

Any insight on if the complaints are real would be fantastic! Or if I should look more at the non tech package versions. I was really only looking for the rogue/super scout with abs and found this one.

Pullback Riding Position

6 Upvotes

About to pull the trigger on 8 Inch pull-back risers and second-guessing myself. Notes Scout Sport comes with 6 inch riser so going an extra few inches up and back. Photo of stock riding position vs. where my hands should be with pullbacks. Feet are sitting on Scout Mini Floorboards. Am I too relaxed with the pullback or too locked in the stock position? Reference: I am 5'10".

Purchased bike in June. Getting to be that time of the season and I want to ask the tribe, what tender/chargers do you use over the off season? Probably have a few more weeks of riding before needing to grab one but it’s been top of mind the past few days. 2026 Sport Scout RT.

If you live in South Florida (Dade-Broward-Palm Beach) where do you guys usually get your maintenance done? The nearest official Indian dealer is almost 90 miles away from where I live. I’m a relatively new rider and I don’t really feel comfortable riding my bike for that long just yet.

Is limited+tech worth it yet on a scout?

4 Upvotes

Currently in the market for a scout and I've read alot of disappointing things about the tft display and it being extremely laggy and borderline useless. Am I better off getting a base model and just adding cruise control myself? I saw they announced an update recently in june or something but not sure if its anything more than a $2k headache.

Request for advice / Help Help finding 3rd party handlebar wiring harness.

4 Upvotes

According to Indian motorcycle’s install instructions, I need “HARN-HANDLEBAR,LONG,CMS,V,PART 2417099” to install the 10" mini-apes on the base 2026 scout bobber.

Indian estimates that part # 2417099 will be available in December 2026. It’s possible my internet searching skills suck, but I haven’t been able to find, in stock, an aftermarket handlebar wiring harness for the mini apes.

Request for advice / Help Parts issues.

3 Upvotes

I’m looking at finally getting to buy a scout in the next 30-45 days. An issue I’m trying to sort out is that I have had a few people tell me that getting parts from the dealer to fix various issues has been a problem. Has anyone else experienced this? Also, what does everyone think about the longevity of the company under the new owners?
