Pros Cons of Indian Scout Sixty

Pros

  • Design
  • Engine performance
  • Appeal

Cons

  • Not available in India currently
  • Price
  • Practicality

Verdict

It's the entry-level Indian bike, although at ₹ 11.99 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi), the Scout Sixty can hardly be called entry-level. For that kind of money, what it offers is a premium cruiser, for the weekend ride, or even the Sunday breakfast ride; if that is the kind of riding you intend to do. It may not be perfect, and it may have its limitations, but to me, the Scout Sixty leaves its imprint as just a very nice bike.

Pros Cons Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight

Pros

  • Classic H-D cruiser styling
  • V-twin engine sound

Cons

  • Small fuel tank limits range
  • Gearbox not very refined
  • Performance & acceleration

Verdict

The Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight Special is definitely not your affordable cruiser. After all, there's a price to be paid to look uber cool and enhance your riding personality. If you're the kind of guy who wants to make a statement with your ride, and nothing short of an all-American v-twin cruiser will do, by all means take a good look at the Forty-Eight, you may end up bringing it home. Just keep in mind that it may start losing its appeal soon.
