I just bought a used Bobber a 2020 20 model with 8600 miles and it was 12grand. I did change the seat, put floor boards on it and waiting for the windshield now. I am 5'5" and it is low enough for me to be flat footed. Good Video.
Nice! Congratulations! The wait time is crazy right now, but hope you get it soon. Also, if you just placed the order then make sure you have something from the dealership in writing that says they will come with black exhaust. Indian has been saying they no longer have black exhaust for Bobber ABS models (only for Rouge)
@@drifter-indian1448 oh yeah they wait time is super crazy, they estimate my bike to be here in October 😢 and that’s what the dealer told me that it’s not a guarantee that it will come with all black exhaust
LOL.. yeah, the biggest complaint on the bike.. other than that this is an awesome bike. Have so much fun with. Note: there is a company called Hemisphere customs, they have developed a fuel Guage for Bobber now. Aftermarket setup for those who need it, but I am used to it now, I know I have abt 120 miles before I run out of gas.
Chief, great video. But who on earth is bothered about battery volt when compared to fuel a gauge indicator? What are these guys thinking? Product management at Indian should take note of this video and Indian should feature fuel gauge indicator in their new builds.
So true.. hated the fact that it didn't have the fuel gauge.. kinda over it now.... 2023 still doesn't have it, hopefully they will add it on 2024 model.
Sure they don't, but it would be nice to give a fuel gauge digitally at least, to check when to fill the fuel and not run out of fuel in a lonesome road..
Yup.. planning on a fender delete and switching to 240MM for rear tire.. but that has to wait. Going wide and removing fender means I can not ride it with passenger or in rain/splash like conditions. Will go that route after I get another daily rider, not now.
If your bike is brand new, you may want to use it for sometime and look for a used bobber for upgrade, that way you won't have to spend/lose too much money. Bobber is definitely bigger and looks much better the v7, but it also costs more. All comes down your preference.
Thanks for the information. I too have a scout bobber 21 model. I like the seat that you chose. I bought the corbin and it's still not as comfortable as I would like. Can you tell me how long you can ride your bike before you get uncomfortable?
Hello there.. as far as I know the Corbins are known to take some time before they break-in... I hope yours will get better too. I went with Syndicate 2up for its looks and the fact it was still wayyyy better than stock. I comfortably ride it on highway for at least an hour and half, then it starts getting a bit itchy and I have to anyways stop to refill the tank. So kinda works out for me.. especially because the tank/fuel range is barely enough to go more than 120-30 miles.
Hey buddy What do you think of the Syndicate 2-Up seat? Is it worth the money? For me this would be the final modification to my '22 Scout Bobber and I'm not yet sure if this is the seat that offers the best combination of comfort and seating position for me. Thanks for the video and hopefully for your answer too!
In my opinion it's totally worth it. Between the stock and comfort seats that Indian sells, I think the Syndicate 2-up is the best seat. It looks and feels great. It could use some more cushion and padding but still not bad. Considering it's for rider and passengers for less than $450 it's cost effective too. If you are looking for solo seat, you may also look at Syndicate solo for half the price.
It was great! I was looking for stock but none of the dealership had one ready to go. Called multiple places and found one in Austin with shortest wait time. Most of the communications took place via phone or email. Very responsive and have no complaints. The fees and charges varied between dealers but I found a good deal. About 3 months of wait and the dealership called me as soon as they got the motorcycle. I showed up to their place in the morning and they had everything ready for me. Signed the paperwork and out in less than an hour.
@@drifter-indian1448 thanks for the info! I bought a Low Rider S at Harley and it was smooth but the dealer tried a lot of shady stuff during. Thanks man!
@@godsmack7734 that's what the dealers do. Doing our research and comparing costs/fees is the best way to go. I found at leat $800 difference in what was quoted by my local dealer in Houston vs the one I finally went with, was 200 miles away from me, but worked out. And the dealership actually helped me get reimbursed pipes which came in different color that what I had ordered. Got a cal from Indian customer service and they explained it was due to supply shortage and they had sent what they could find, but did give me a full refund to buy another pipe of my liking
Hey thanks!!! And yes, they do have the back pegs. They don't come standard and Indian sells it for abt $200. I have it installed now. Thinking about doing a new walk around with all the mods I have done recently. Hopefully this weekend.
@@palerider8992 if you ask me, I think most Bobbers end up looking like Rouge. With bigger front wheels, the blacked out pipes and heads, syndicate seat, the ape handlebars and fairing the Rouge has good value for money, but looks wise Bobber is definitely better (you compromise on comfort). I suggest you do a test ride.. both have same base and engine. Also, currently the wait times are crazy, I would recommend you look for a used low mile Bobber,that might have better value for yout money.

Black is Perfect! How are you liking it? Still find it fun or think you are growing out of it? I always wanted Black but they sent one with chrome pipes, I have replaced the pipes and shields with black ones now. Looks perfect.
That's true, but I have gotten used to it now. I know I have to start looking for a gas station as soon as I hit 100 miles, or have abt 20 miles after the light comes on.
@@drifter-indian1448 Auburn, CA if I get a deal $16000 out of the door; do you think it’s a good deal. Since over here everything is expensive, sales tax and all?
@@gurvindersinghchauhan6109 I think so, especially considering the MSRP from Indian itself has gone up. The ABS model I bought had the MSRP of $12399, the current MSRP on website is $13650. They raised the prices on June 1st.
just ordered a scout bobber this past saturday and i was told october 1st to the 15th from the assembly to colorado. but i was told if its a regular scout theyd come a month or 2 sooner
@@supermexicanwonder13 yeah preorded my a week and half ago said would be about 8 weeks or mid august. Don't mind as it's hot as heck right now and during that time it would be some really good weather to ride.
@@supermexicanwonder13 yeah, that sounds about right! You guys might also wan to take a look at pre-owned bikes, I see a lot of good bikes with really low miles on sale. Checkout Facebook market place, or Offer-Up along with cycle trader (us market)
its not about them losing their value if you have been living under rock theres a global chip shortage and all the manufactrurers are runnic low on new bikes and also cars which results in a over saturated used bike market
That's true, however, there are always more than one reason for resale value to be up or down.. I been interested in this bike since it came out in 2018, even in 2019 when i first started looking at it it was still expensive. I guess after some time it will cool off a bit.
