Indian Motorcycles has a new variant in the Scout lineup. The new Indian Scout Rogue takes the company’s basic Scout model and adds some custom-style trim to class things up.
Immediately, you can see there’s a set of mini-ape handlebars for a not-quite-sky-high reach, as well as a new mini fairing (bikini fairing? headlight fairing? Officially, Indian calls it a quarter-fairing). There’s also a new solo seat; Indian says the Syndicate Solo seat is intended to provide both long-mileage comfort as well as stability through hard acceleration. Indian also put a 19-inch front wheel on the Scout Rogue, instead of the usual 16-inch front. This allows Indian to use a lower-profile front tire, instead of the balloonish rubber seen on the front of the standard Scout model.
Along with these updated bits of trim, Indian also has a lineup of official accessories for the bike, including adjustable piggyback-style rear shocks (with twist-knob control over compression and rebound). Although the standard gauge cluster doesn’t include a tach, Indian does have an auxiliary tach with shift light available as an option. Indian also has other seats to fit this bike, including a two-up seat with a backrest for the pillion. Indian has luggage options available as well.
The engine and frame appear to be same as the standard Scout model, with a liquid-cooled 69ci and 60ci V-twin engine available. Pricing starts at $12,299 for the Scout Rogue Sixty, and the standard Scout Rogue has a $14,599 MSRP. Both bikes are available in Black Metallic without ABS, and if you’re willing to pay a few hundred more for ABS, both versions of the bike have other paint options available.

Ha, Don nailed it! Went to the graveyard and dug one up.
Brought back the Victory Octane.
