Yesterday, I finally visited the Milwaukee Indian Dealership in Muskego Wisconsin and test drove a Smoke grey 2016 Indian Scout. The bike is light weight like my street and makes u turns with ease. The fat tires take the bumps in the road very well. This bike came equipped with ABS, a Gear indicator, Tach, and Low fuel light. Also the blinker switch turns off automatically. This is one smooth riding motorcycle with lots of power and the shifting is so much smoother than my Street 750. It seems to me that the makers of the Indian Scout have been reading the complaints we Street owners have been stating about the lack of what should have been included on our bikes. I haven't test drove a 2016 Street 750 yet since there isn't one at my dealership. The accessories for the 2016 Scout are 3 windshield sizes to choose from. Also, a kit to add a 10 inch mini apes in addition to reduce reach handle bars just to name a few that I liked very much. What I didn't like was this bike uses 15w-60 motor oil. At least that is what the guy at the store said. With 2016 Street, relocated horn and upgraded brakes non abs for 50 more on the sticker price than last years model. I still like the gas mileage I'm getting with my Harley. I haven't done enough research to see what the Scout is getting for gas mileage.
