Is the Indian Scout Rogue Better Than The Scout Bobber?

[@midlife-crysis]

Amazing engine. Amazing power. The bobber has the looks and the rogue has the actual rideablity. If I lived in a big city I would just own the bobber.

[@IronBornRider]

Well said. Couldn’t agree more

[@travelinman482]

​@IronBornRider Maybe, you need to change the seat? Are you overweight (beer belly)? You do know that you can change the bars and foot controls, right?

[@danielles9763]

I have a Rogue and I love it! I’m a bit vertically challenged (5’) and find it really comfortable and easy to handle. My only complaints are the lack of a gas gauge (and the small gas tank), and there is no steering lock (security).

[@IronBornRider]

@@danielles9763 I just use the trip odometer as my gas gauge lol

[@labelskater613]

Rogue all day. Much better lean on it. I live in the mountains and it handles big turns and hills like a champ

[@IronBornRider]

Yeah the skinnier front wheel makes a difference

[@Anhnoles]

The rogue is a definite winner! wouldn't mind it if I didn't already have the low rider S. Only downside for the scouts still is the outdated gauge. They should switch it to the digital one.

[@IronBornRider]

I like how the usb charger is right in the gauge though. Very convenient

[@mikeh4686]

I agree, but you do not get a lot of tech at this price point

[@YamiRenegade]

Yes it is the better bike! Both are great and I don't have an Indian yet, but I would like it more comfortable and I love (mini) ape bars an cruisers. There should be many more cruisers with stock ape bars :D

[@IronBornRider]

@@YamiRenegade the apes definitely is the way to go

[@vertigo2112]

I have the regular scout. Changed the seat to a Mustang and now can ride for hours in comfort.

[@22stenox]

Scout bobber?

[@jmejias12]

Test rode this bike today as my first bike and I fell in love with it! Only minus for me is the limited color selection. I'd love to get one in red.

[@IronBornRider]

It’s a great bike, fun and capable

[@jmejias12]

@@IronBornRider Actually ended up going back to the dealership today and getting a Rogue Sixty as my first bike!!! :D

@@jmejias12 congrats!

[@jmejias12]

@@IronBornRider Thanks! Loving it!

[@onlyhereonce7290]

The short rear suspension travel can make for a harsh ride. But.... BUT. The stock seat and ergonomics are quite good.

[@IronBornRider]

Agreed!

[@ZinoAmare]

I loved the rogue when I first tried it, it never left my mind, I am not a cruiser guy went there for the FTR and the power delivery wasn't a fan of that had to rev the bike out to feel the power, and with this it was just constantly pulling, same speed a lot more fun, the looks to me it looks amazing, it felt amazing, I want one xD

[@edde591]

Just got my rogue, absolutely love it!

[@IronBornRider]

Nice!

[@hyperboreankimjongun]

Spotsylvania! Thanks for making this video. On the fence between the bobber and rogue.

[@IronBornRider]

The bobber has the looks, the rogue is more comfortable

[@denniswilliams9145]

Judging solely from the audio, sounds like a bit of a rough ride my brother!

[@IronBornRider]

Lol the stock shocks are terrible

[@domicam100]

I like the home depot tour at the beginning of your rides.

[@IronBornRider]

Lol not sure why they decided to go behind Home Depot 😂

[@charleyrider9775]

I rode one and didn't like the stiffness and short travel of the rear suspension. Think I'll keep my Lowrider S.

[@IronBornRider]

Can’t get rid of the low rider

[@Pzest_Titan]

I am 5'7 roughly, do you think I could manage the low rider s ? Or are they meant for taller stronger people?

[@charleyrider9775]

​@@Pzest_Titanheight-wise I don't think you would have any trouble handling the lowrider I myself am 5 ft 7 in with a 29 inch inseam the only change I had to make was to put a little bit taller pull back risers on to make the reach to the handlebars more comfortable

[@Pzest_Titan]

@charleyrider9775 awesome, I'm tossing up between scout rouge and low rider s, i just need to make the time to test them out. Will be strange for me coming from sports bikes this will be my 1st cruiser style bike

[@erolyalim2911]

Great informative video! Do you think that the 2024 regular Scout and Scout 60 would have a slightly more comfortable ride because of the 3 inch rear suspension instead of the 2 inch rear suspension found in the Rogue amd other Scout models?

[@IronBornRider]

I’ve never tried the scout 60 but I’d imagine the 3 inch would be a big improvement over the 2

[@andyc5209]

What would you suggest as a bike I will be driving during the week after work but longer rides on the weekends? I’m close to buying a scout bobber 20

[@andyc5209]

Brand new rider here

[@IronBornRider]

The scout bobber 20 and the rogue are great because they have the mini apes. The rogue might be more comfortable because of the seat and skinnier front tire for easier handling

[@TechNickRides]

Nice review IBR. Those mini apes make a difference on a little more rider comfortability. I was wondering how that 19" front wheel did on handling.

[@IronBornRider]

Thanks Nick! I really liked the 19” wheel. I think it felt a bit smoother and more stabile vs the chunky tires

[@cjmcgrath4240]

Hi what if you just put the mini apes on the bobber would that help with comfort?

[@IronBornRider]

For sure. I have mini apes on my bobber and it helps a ton. The scout bobber twenty comes stock with mini apes and the rogue does as well

[@julianthomas2873]

Damn u riding right near my house

[@IronBornRider]

Got some great roads around there

[@julianthomas2873]

@@IronBornRider truth, love to ride my Indian scout rouge thru those streets

[@firestarter8202]

The seat on the Rouge is different from the Bobber seat.. It’s better. It’s got a taller, lower lumbar/coccyx area support. Yeah, I have a 2023.

[@IronBornRider]

Yeah I realized that after I made the video. My mistake. How’s the seat after an hour or so?

[@firestarter8202]

I am 5 foot eight and 145 pounds. I’ve done 4-hour trips and the seat was great. Very snug, no hot spots.

[@paulshearer9140]

Thanks

[@IronBornRider]

Welcome!

[@stevekratochvil8101]

I don't understand my 2024 Bobber twenty feels very comfortable to me.

[@IronBornRider]

I also have the scout bobber twenty and I think it’s more comfortable than the standard scout bobber. The rogue also has the mini apes which make it more comfortable
