The Indian Scout 60 is a more than worthy mid-weight cruiser that offers performance specs the likes of which you wouldn't really expect at the reasonable base price of $8,999.

The Scout 60's engine is capable of pumping out as much as 78 horsepower or 58 KiloWatts, not to mention a handsome 65 pounds-feet (88 Nm) of torque, while the weight of 560-pounds makes this bike a clear addition to the [mid-weight cruiser motorbike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/royal-enfield-guerrilla-450) category of the market. The true value of the engine specs can be ascertained with a little more context when you compare it to the Harley 883, which offers 54 horsepower and 49 pounds-feet of torque.

This Indian Scout offering is clearly targeted towards motorbike enthusiasts who emphasize [power and performance](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manx-and-manx-r) over comfort and luxury.
