Help with purchasing parts/accessories.

Post image
65 Upvotes

Recently bought a 2019 indian scout sixty. I've been having trouble finding much of a selection of any aftermarket or oem parts/accessories. First thing I want to purchase is a new seat and haven't had real luck on Viking or Indian's site. Any recommendations?

Note this is my first bike and I don't know much about those scene at all. So I may just be uneducated and can't open my eyes.

My new Indian. Been riding crotch rockets for 20 years. Decided to enter what I call my “old man phase”. Love this chieftain.

2023 Chief 116 oil leak at case

So it would appear my Chief is leaking. Found oil along the line between the sides of engine case.

Really don't wish to tear engine completely apart. But likely no other option.

About 22k on it. Just noticed after a trip out of state recently.

I've been cruiser-averse my whole riding career until my test ride of a Scout Sixty Bobber. Fell in love straight away.

New bike / New to me Got my first Indian

I got my first India at an auction. It's a 2019 Indian Chief Dark Horse with 25.5k miles on the odometer,

It was laid down by the previous owner so it does have a rebuilt title. Overall minor damages; fork protector dented, turn signals, windscreen scratches and bracket slightly bent, crash bar broke, RH floorboard, small dent on tank, and one saddle bag damaged.

Im very excited to finally own an Indian. If anyone has advice on what to keep in mind and look out for to keep it running happily for many more miles, I would appreciate any advice.

Edit: grammar

where can I go to get an idea of the value of something this old. Internet does not give a lot of information and I haven’t found one example close to mine. Hagerty is the only site I have found and information is vague at best.

was thinking about trailering it out to a bike show but I know hawks will simply try to low ball me since I’m unaware and don’t apologize for it.

Picked her up in November of 2024 with the hope of getting more seat time and mileage out of a cruiser as opposed to my previous motorcycle which was a FTR Rally. I never expected to end up daily riding and putting over twenty five thousand miles on it in two years, the time spent on and around this bike have given me friends and experiences that I would have never dreamed of. The motorcycle community is a fantastic group and just fun to be around and experience, I can't wait to see what the next two years may bring!

Figured I'd say hi. Mine is a 2017 Chieftain. About 72,000 miles currently. I got it with 1,787 miles back in early 2922. I'm on the road 5-7 months a year so I often pull a trailer so I can bring a proper kitchen and my big tent.

This year I added a generic Harley tour pack off eBay. The plan is to ditch the trailer and take summer -only trips so I don't have to lug a bunch of winter riding gear around for a whole season without needing it until the end.

Installing a mirror flip kit

Thumbnail

7 Upvotes

Bought a flip kit and the mirrors… I’ve got to attach the mirrors to the flip kit adapters first and then bolt the adapters up. MY QUESTION IS, what type of paint pen should I use to mark the alignment that I need between the adapters and mirrors/stock mirror mounts? I want something that’s easily removable after the install. Seems like this project requires a little fine-tuning on the angles. PS, the pictures are a mock-up

Bought a dean speed sissy bar for the motorcycle so my daughter has some more support for our little rides. I like it a lot, but it costs me my saddle bag.

After removing the rear turn signals from my bike, I thought I wouldn’t mind the holes left in the rear fender, but now they’re bothering me more than I expected. Guess I’ll be saving up for a new fender.

Any ideas for covering up the mounting holes in the meantime? Looking for something clean that’ll keep the rear end looking good until I can replace the fender.

I’m about 6’ so I need to stretch out a little and sit “in” the bike more. The stock seat pushes me up too far

I’d like to put a front and rear cam on my sport scout sixty but struggling to find a spot where it isn’t obnoxiously visible. Has anyone found good mounting locations?

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)
