2018 Indian Scout

The 2018 Indian Scout is an old-school American cruiser with a surprisingly modern heart. Powered by a smooth and powerful liquid-cooled V-twin, the Scout combines classic styling, low-slung looks, and effortless acceleration into one addictive package. With its low seat height, lightweight feel for a cruiser, and strong 100-horsepower engine, it's equally happy cruising Main Street, devouring back roads, or turning heads at every gas stop. The Scout delivers a perfect blend of heritage, performance, and pure riding fun.
