This Custom Indian Scout Is Going To Look So Mean When It's Done

When you have a clear vision for what you want to accomplish, it's immensely rewarding to watch it all come together. And that's true even if it's someone else's vision and you're observing it from the sidelines, because that clarity shines through.

Take, for example, this shiny new Indian Scout that Aaron Colton is currently busy transforming into exactly the bike he wants it to be. It's more than aesthetic, too, although of course how the end result looks is a large part of the program. Even bigger, though, will be how it handles. 

Those stock 16-inch wheels come off, and have been swapped for a set of 17-inch wheels off an FTR. However, to accommodate the larger wheels, certain other modifications are necessary. Swingarm modification, rear axle modification, wheel spacers of yet-to-be-determined size; plenty of fabrication work to come at a later date to dial it in just right.
