The 2020 Indian Scout gets new trims for its 100th birthday
In 2020, the Indian Scout motorcycle marked a significant milestone – its 100th birthday. To celebrate this historic centennial, Indian Motorcycle, America’s first motorcycle company, released new trims for the Scout, enhancing both its classic appeal and modern performance.
The Scout has been an iconic part of the motorcycle world since it first hit the roads in 1920. Known for its maneuverability and power, the bike quickly became a favorite among riders. The new trims aim to honor this legacy while providing enthusiasts with modern updates and options.
The 100th anniversary edition of the Scout boasts a commemorative trim that pays homage to its rich heritage. This includes a special livery featuring a throwback color scheme that references the original Scout models, contrasting beautifully with chrome accents. Additionally, this edition comes with a genuine leather solo saddle seat that emphasizes the brand’s commitment to craftsmanship and quality.
Apart from the anniversary edition, the Scout lineup has also been expanded with new color options for its standard models. Riders can now opt for deep metallic colors and two-tone designs, giving them even more opportunities to personalize their motorcycles.
Performance has not been overlooked in favor of style; these trims also come with enhancements that further improve riding experience. Upgrades include a recalibrated engine for smoother acceleration and improved horsepower ratings. The suspension system has been refined as well to provide better handling and comfort during long rides.
As always, safety features are paramount with anti-lock braking systems (ABS) becoming standard in all models. This ties into Indian Motorcycle’s priority of fusing their bikes’ historical appeal with top-tier modern performance and reliability.
The recognition of the Indian Scout’s 100th year demonstrates the timelessness of its design and the enduring affection enthusiasts have for it. With these new trims and updates, the 2020 Indian Scout is set to continue blazing trails for future generations of riders to enjoy.
