In mid-1928 the Scout series 101 replaced the original Scout. Designed by Charles B. Franklin, who had designed the original Scout, the 101 Scout had a new frame with more fork rate, a longer wheelbase, and a lower seat height. The geometry of the 101 Scout wheelbase, steering head angle, and rear subframe were all adopted from the new Indian 401 model which was under development at the same time.
The 101 Scout has been called the best motorcycle Indian ever made. Enthusiasts have differing views on the replacement of the 101 Scout. Fans of the Indian's technical achievements Acclaim the 101 Scout as the Pinnacle of Indian technology, while fans of classic Indian style hail it's the replacement for bringing classic Chief styling to the Scout line. The 101 is still used in the Wall of death stunt exhibitions. The 101 Scout was noted for its handling and was popular with racers, hill climbers, and trick riders.
