Indian Motorcycle reintroduce A2-compliant Scout Sixty now featuring Euro5+ 999cc V-twin engine

Indian Motorcycle have resurrected their Scout Sixty models for 2025, bringing two fresh flavours of the American cruiser to the global market: the Classic and the Bobber.

Emissions regulations had previously seen the model withdrawn from European showrooms, but fresh tweaks now see it meet Euro5+ standards, making it eligible return to sale, both on the continent and in the UK.

“Our 2025 model year lineup offers new models and updates across the board to serve our ever-growing community of global riders,” said Aaron Jax, Vice President for Indian Motorcycle. “The new Scout Sixty lineup builds upon our iconic Scout platform and offers a more accessible lineup for riders of all skill levels.” 

At the heart of both Scout Sixty variants is a 999cc liquid cooled 60-degree V-twin engine – good for an ample 84bhp at 8500rpm and 64.2lb.ft of torque at 6200rpm. These figures mean that the Sixty is also suitable for restriction down 47bhp for those riding on an A2 licence. 

Clearly, the Sixty is not about pushing the envelope of performance, but rather about offering an easy going, accessible ride. For those looking for more poke, however, Indian also recently launched their all-new 1250cc Sport Plus motor boasting 115 horses, which will feature in their 2025 Scout Classic, Scout Bobber, Sport Scout, and Super models. 

Priced from £10,995 for the Bobber (rising to £12,995 for the Bobber Limited), and £11,695 for the Classic (rising to £12,695 for the Classic Limited), the Scout Sixty siblings represent Indian’s most affordable offerings.

As well as being Indian’s cheapest motorcycles, the smaller displacement Scouts are also the brand’s smallest, with seat height and weight figures coming in at a manageable 654mm and 232kg respectively for the Classic, and 649mm and 234kg for the Bobber.

While the Scout Sixty sits at the lower end of Indian’s lineup in terms of price or power, it remains their most successful model, acting as a steppingstone for riders to join the brand. Riders wanting cruise control, a USB charger and Indian’s three ride modes (Sport, Road and Rain) will have to stump up the extra cash for the Limited versions.

Indian say that as many as 90% of Scout buyers are new to the brand, and thanks in part to a low seat height, manageable weight and more attainable pricing than some of their larger models, nearly a quarter of all Scout buyers are new to riding altogether.
