finally got around to making a seat lanyard, ended up that when the seat is hanging it makes a good place to lay your tools while working with battery or making connections. also made these bungee spools for about 10 bucks. Auto part Engine Fuel line Vehicle Wire

I made a bib for the tank . I seen them on other bikes and just wanted something to protect the tank from my belt and some accent to match the seat cover I put on . It's growing on me just Eh I think . What do you all say . Easy enough to take off .

Added my amber to the low beam on the bike . I was too lazy to get up the first time to grab another relay out of the toolbox so I just had high beam with the white light 😅

What is that silver portion on top of the tank. Hand painted? Decal of some sort?
That's the reflection from my wall in the garage 🤣. If you blow the picture up you can make out the tools on the wall. ever since I waxed my bike with chemical guys butter wet wax it makes a deep wet shine

I wouldn't. They might sue you for trade mark infringement 🤣
Love my Indian Scout so much, I took one of my guitars and am building a Indian theme guitar. It not quite finished but will send pics to Polaris once finished.

Here you go man! Scout Bobber Photo Thread

I’ll be honest, I’ve still only scraped my peg feelers once. I’m still getting the hang of how much lean I can do on it.

I put on one of two Chieftain floorboards today on my Scout. I was having a hard time grasping one of the thing I had to do to the brake side so I took a break but I'm happy so far.



































Very nice . I couldn't figure out how they would work on the bobber because they use 2 pin points so I made my own

I gutted the foam out of my seat and cut out the dimple riser in the plastic where my tailbone would sit into . Dont recommend doing this but i am getting it redone and wanted to see how it felt . You actualy sit inside the bike now without all that foam pushing you over the bars if you are over 6ft tall . Might leave it since i have new softer shocks since the leather doesnt land on the hard plastic . Like sitting on a hamock for your butt

What are shop supplie? They bought an Indian shirt on your dime?
Went to fill the tank today and only filled 1 gallon. Got home and heard sloshing in the tank . So I filled the tank another half gallon when it was upright sitting on the bike . Never knew if it sits on the stand it didn't fill the tank completely. Learn something new eeveryday
You all might not like this and I didn't like any made out there . Past 3 days making parts . Now I need a few more washers and 2 more decorative nuts . I changed the design about 3 times until I got it the way I think the lines on the bobber looked . Round curves like the fender .



Black paint is next.
