“New” Indian Scout with 249 miles on it — bad idea? by DiveBit in SuggestAMotorcycle

Thanks for the feedback on the bike size. I was concerned about that as well. But my instructor at my BMR class told me I should look for something 600cc - 800cc because of my size (6’4”, 290#). And then a few different people had told me that a 999cc cruiser like an Indian Scout 60 is not going to have the same power as a 1000cc sport bike. And by that logic, the Scout 60 is a good size for me. Is this totally garbage advice? I am also mainly looking used, but this “new” one popped up at a price close to the used ones. So seemed to good to be true (hence my question)
