2019 Indian Scout Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around Indian's custom - cruiser motorcycle platform, the 2019 Indian Scout relies on a 1133 cc (69.1 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 97.6 Nm (72 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 99.0 x 73.6 mm (3.9 x 2.9 inches) with a 10.7:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Scout measures 249 kg (549 lbs) wet (curb).
