[motorcycle.com] - Indian Scout Inspired Custom Series Pays Tribute To Indian History
Indian Motorcycle, America’s first motorcycle company, today announced its Scout Inspired Custom Series; a chronology of the rich, century-long history of the Indian Scout motorcycle. Throughout 2015, Indian Motorcycle will unveil a series of custom Indian Scouts designed and crafted by some of America’s leading custom bike builders — each designed to celebrate an important Indian Scout milestone or achievement since its debut in 1920. Each of the custom Scouts will be accompanied by vignettes to share the legacy of the Indian Scout.* To kick-off the series, Indian Motorcycle today launched the Custom Military Scout in a vignette narrated by Mark Wahlberg. The*Custom Military Scout*is a tribute to the company’s nearly 100-year history of supporting the U.S. Military and to celebrate Indian Motorcycle’s partnership with USO. The*Custom Military Scout*was designed and built by world-renowned custom builder Klock Werks Kustom Cycles of Mitchell, South Dakota. The*Custom Military Scout*is built on the 2015 Indian Scout platform, sporting a matte green paint indicative of a vintage military bike, applied by Brad Smith of The Factory Match. It utilizes taillights that are modern street legal reproductions on a custom bracket to mimic the original military-style lights. The*Custom Military Scout*features Genuine Indian Motorcycle Accessory leather saddlebags, a Klock Werks “Klassic” seat kit and leather wraps for the base of the Indian accessory quick-detach windshield — all upholstered using matching leather hides. A custom gun scabbard mount holds a Thompson sub-machine gun with a custom gunstock by Boyds Gunstocks of Mitchell, SD etched with both the USO and Indian Motorcycle logos. The first public showing of the bike will be at the Quail Motorcycle Gathering in Monterey California on May 15th*& 16th. The front fender is a Klock Werks “Klassic” design for the new Scout model.*The fork caps and rear shock covers are custom rapid prototype parts designed on Klock Werks Stratasys equipment. Floorboards replace the stock forward controls and feature custom Klock Werks designed mounting brackets and hardware. The luggage rack is a custom one off billet top with metal side plates featuring the USO logo. The exhaust has been ceramic coated to blend with the frame coloration. The right side features a “Klassic” round injector cover. The custom gun scabbard mount holds a de-commissioned Thompson sub machine gun with a custom gunstock by Boyds Gunstocks of Mitchell, SD.*The USO and Indian Motorcycle logos are both engraved in the stock. The Custom Military Scout and accompanying video vignette narrated by Mark Wahlberg can be found by visiting*www.indianmotorcycle.com, along with upcoming stories in the Scout Inspired Custom Series.
