Pros and Cons in comparison

Harley-Davidson Sportster XL 1200T SuperLow 2014

A Harley isn't about power, it's about torque and with 96 Newton metres at just 3750 revs, you get the typical kick in the butt from way down on the Superlow 1200T too.

Smooth running

efficient windshield - can also be removed

brake works steadily and without much manual force.

Uncomfortable for longer tours

weak exhaust sound.

Indian Scout 2021

Cruiser riding made easy! This is the slogan under which Indian should actually sell the Scout, because it shows that cool Yankee cruisers don't have to be difficult or complicated to use. In everyday life, it is a stress-free companion and surprises with sportiness and a very rev-happy V2. If it had a touch more character, it would be perfect.

lively engine

easy handling

low seat height

well suited for small riders

pleasant companion in everyday life

classic look

Engine lacks character
