Looking at the Indian Scout

[Celestial]

I've been eyeing the Indian Scout and the Indian Chief Dark Horse for some time now. I love the 2023–2024 colors, but before I test ride, I'm curious, how's the clutch feel, comfort at highway speeds, and low seat height for someone 6'0"? Anyone compared it directly to the Low Rider S?

I ride a Scout and I'm 6'0", the seat height's super manageable, clutch is smooth, and it's comfy at highway speeds. I haven't ridden the Low Rider S yet, but I am curious too

I am jhoping to test ride both soon to compare comfort and handling firsthand

If you're around 6 feet, chief dark horse tends to strike the best balance between comfort and control, especially for longer rides, the Scout is great though if you want something lighter and easier in town but don't mind a firmer ride on the highway

I agree with this. I'm 6' 1" and it's been a comfortable experience. It's stable and predictable unless you ask too much of it. As for the clutch, I haven't compared it to the Harley, but it doesn't wear you down and tire you when driving around town, so I guess that counts as a soft clutch.
