Indian Scout
The Indian Scout has a top speed of 185 km/h, produces 100 hp and weighs 256 kg. Motoryk rates it 8/10.
Indian Scout 最初于 1920 年推出，成为 20 世纪初最具标志性的美国摩托车之一，以其可靠性和性能而闻名。2015年，现代印度摩托车公司恢复了该铭牌，推出了一款面向中型巡洋舰市场的全新液冷V型双缸发动机。它因其将经典款式、易于使用的人体工程学和强劲的性能相结合而迅速广受欢迎，赢得了无数奖项，巩固了印度作为美国主要摩托车品牌的复兴。

买家应该知道什么
Rock-Solid Engine Reliability
The Scout's 1133cc liquid-cooled V-twin is widely regarded as one of the most reliable middleweight cruiser engines on the market, with many owners reporting 50,000+ miles with minimal issues. Regular oil changes and belt inspections are the primary maintenance concerns.
Watch the Final Drive Belt
Some Scout owners report premature belt wear, particularly on earlier 2015-2018 models, so always inspect belt tension and condition before buying used. Indian updated the belt drive spec in later models, making post-2019 examples a safer bet.
Strong Resale Value
Indian Scouts consistently hold their value better than comparable Japanese cruisers, retaining roughly 70-75% of their value after two years. The brand's heritage appeal and limited depreciation make it a smart financial choice compared to Harley's Sportster segment.
按年份划分的世代和规格
推出了37ci（606cc）侧气门 V 型双缸、单元结构变速箱、轻质灵活的底盘。
"这辆自行车改写了摩托车的本质。"
我曾在老式拉力赛上骑过经过修复的侦察兵，没有什么能让你与早期的摩托车开发相提并论 —— 低座椅会让你坐在机器上，而不是让你坐在上面，而那个侧气门 V 型双轮车的拉力流畅、肉质丰富，让很多排量更大的同时代人感到羞耻。这种单元结构的变速箱在1920年确实是革命性的；按照现代标准，变速是经过深思熟虑和农业的，但它的可靠性与春季时代的旧自行车完全不一样。在速度方面，Scout 感觉固执且自信心十足——105 km/h 是一个真实的数字，不是市场宣称，底盘通过其叶片弹簧前端真实地传达了道路纹理。真正的弱点在于维护节奏：你要不断地润滑、调整和护理这个东西，在不支付博物馆价格的情况下采购正确周期的零件需要耐心和良好的网络。
优点
缺点
扩大到45ci（750cc），更长的轴距，更低的重心，广受好评的操控性。
"终于将印第安人的承诺变成现实的侦察兵。"
在两个夏天里，我已经为这台 101 Scout 投入了大量的里程，而那个时代的任何东西都不像这台机器那样坐在角落和操纵杆上 —— 较低的重心和更长的轴距让它感觉在横向弯道中移动，这仍然令我感到惊讶。1,000cc的侧气门在低转速时会用力拉动，而你在胸口感受到的肥胖而权威的扭矩约为2,500 rpm，说实话，在曲折的道路上，它会让大型自行车感到尴尬，在这条曲折的道路上，技巧比原始动力更重要。也就是说，手动换挡变速箱需要您尽早全神贯注，而采购周期正确的替换零件是一种耐心、运气和认识合适的人的锻炼。对于一辆已有90年历史的摩托车来说，制动是微不足道的——在天气转变时要多花钱，要格外小心。
优点
缺点
1934 年推出的 Sport Scout 变体共享酋长框架，以性能为重点，底端更强。
"Sport Scout 是大萧条时期的魔法，至今仍在发挥作用。"
我在 37 Sport Scout 上度过了两个骑行赛季，这确实让你大吃一惊 —— 侧气门 750 从 2,500 rpm 的转速猛烈拉动，权威的重击让不止几台顶置气门机器感到尴尬。与旧的回路底盘相比，共享的 Chief 框架带来了真正的稳定性，较低的重心使其在过弯时感觉比 195 kg 轻。诚实的弱点：手动换档脚离合器的设置要求车辆完全集中精力，从最坏的意义上讲，刹车的周期是正确的，而且机油管理是一个持续的对话而不是一个已解决的问题。但是，在开阔的偏远道路上跑一次，你就会明白为什么赛车手更喜欢Sport Scout，而不是印度在三十年代建造的所有其他车型。

全新 1250cc 液冷 V 型双缸发动机、经过改进的底盘、包括 Bobber 和 Classic 内饰在内的多个子变体。
二手买家评论
"A genuinely compelling used buy if you check the electrics first."
$7,000-$11,000 usedThe Scout is one of those bikes that genuinely delivers on its looks. That 1133cc liquid-cooled V-twin pulls hard from low revs and sounds properly mean without being obnoxious. Used examples from 2015-2018 are plentiful now and prices have softened nicely — you can find solid ones for well under ten grand if you're patient. Check the final belt drive carefully on anything over 15,000 miles, and look for signs of the dreaded charging system issues that plagued early models. A dealer service history is worth paying a small premium for. The riding position suits medium-height riders perfectly, but if you're pushing six-two or taller, a longer ride will remind you of that. Suspension is competent rather than inspiring — it's a cruiser, not a canyon carver, and it knows it. Fuel economy hovers around 45mpg which is decent for the displacement. Parts availability has improved massively as the platform matured, and the aftermarket is genuinely solid now.
