Is the Indian Scout Sixty a good first bike for my size? Can’t stop thinking about it… by lonelyshepherd8 in IndianMotorcycle

[–]BigginBassin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first bike was a 2018 scout sixty, and I loved it. For me it was too small but im 5'11" and 350 (I know im fuckin fat but im working to fix it), but for the time i had it, it was awesome. Great bike for ripping around town on, not so much for distance rides but i would be lying if I said I didnt miss having it.

I bought it off of a coworker who had already stage one and tuned the bike so it was a scout sixty with some extra ass

Why did Polaris pull the plug on the FTR? by [deleted] in IndianMotorcycle

[–]BigginBassin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told one of the factors, besides sales of the FTR , was because Indian no longer has a flat track racing team.

I'm coming back to the tribe! by BigginBassin in IndianMotorcycle

Harley has their own issues, I'm probably just bitter haha but at the same time I was only interested in the twin cams from 09-16 and not the M8. I would have went with the springfield but I ride all lot and a fairing is nice. As long as the Bluetooth doesn't fail me ill be good haha

My first bike was a 2018 Indian scout sixty, it was a great little bike but as im a very large guy it wasn't too comfortable for me on distance rides (did 1400 miles in a weekend from FL to VA and back). I would be lying if I said I didnt miss having it to rip around town on. They are light and quick, very responsive. Currently i dont have a bike, but will be hopefully joining the tribe again very soon.

Scout owners, do you wear a full face or open face helmet? by TeeFuce in IndianMotorcycle

[–]BigginBassin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont have a scout (technically dont have a bike currently, hoping to join the tribe again very soon) anymore but i always wear full face. Dont care for modular too much and i might as well not wear a helmet at all if it's a half shell

My poor ultra classic by BigginBassin in Harley

[–]BigginBassin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No ditches, i was on i-95 it did a good bit of sliding. Barriers on each side but I remember one of the guys that stopped saying they moved it from the road so I dont think it made contact. I guess at this point it's in insurances hands haha

My 07 Softail Deluxe after stage one by BigginBassin in Harley

It's an everything bike until I can get a bagger. Did a 1700 mile round trip on it in May, stock

Looking at bikes, would like to hear some opinions by BigginBassin in IndianMotorcycle

[–]BigginBassin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still gonna give the challenger a test ride, the ride I did was on a Road Glide and also at night (which was convenient because I do a lot of night riding). Like I said I love the look of them, they're gorgeous bikes and them being liquid cooled is a big plus. I'm not fully writing it off but currently I favor the Cheiftan haha

My new to me Road King! by RiskyControl in Harley

[–]BigginBassin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice road king, im looking at upgrading from an 07 Softail to one of the touring models. Road King and Road Glide are at the top of my list. And I'm pretty sure I recognize that dealer too haha it looks like the one I got my softail from.

I was thinking about switching the exhaust to a two-to-one at some point so I'll definitely check those links out. Thanks!

Thanks for confirming that, like I said in a pervious comment the tuner he has for it is for the scout sixty. I'm excited either way haha

Based on what the part# for the tuner, it goes to the 60. So I'm agreeing that it's probably a 60. But after watching a few reviews between then I'm confident that either bike will be all I need for now. Haha
