Indian Motorcycles has announced a new video series entitled “Forged”, which highlights the customization of the iconic Indian Scout. The series offers an in-depth look at the creative and technical process involved in transforming this classic motorcycle into unique works of art. “Forged” not only celebrates the versatility and appeal of the Indian Scout, but also highlights the experience and passion of the renowned motorcycle builders who collaborate with the brand.
The “Forged” series features three world-renowned builders: Paul Cox, Keino Sasaki and Satya Kraus. Each episode focuses on a different builder, offering a unique insight into their approaches and customization techniques. Paul Cox, known for his bold and artistic creations, brings his unique vision to the Scout, while Keino Sasaki, with his minimalist and elegant style, redefines the motorcycle with touches of sophistication. Satya Kraus, famous for his high-performance builds, adds an element of power and precision to the bike.
The videos document the entire customization process, from the initial concept and sketches to the final execution and test ride. Viewers have the opportunity to see how each manufacturer approaches the design and engineering challenges, adapting the Indian Scout to their personal visions, while maintaining the integrity of the bike and its characteristic performance. The series highlights not only the aesthetics, but also the functionality and mechanical innovation of each project.
As well as showcasing the talent of the builders, “Forged” also highlights the flexibility of the Indian Scout as a customization platform. With its 1133 cc twin-cylinder engine and versatile frame, the Scout lends itself to a wide range of modifications, from cosmetic tweaks to significant changes in performance. The series inspires customization enthusiasts to explore their own ideas and experiment with their bikes.
Indian Motorcycle’s initiative with the “Forged” series reinforces the brand’s commitment to the motorcycling community and the culture of customization. By celebrating the art of customization and promoting the work of talented builders, Indian not only pays homage to its own historic roots, but also encourages creativity and innovation in the world of motorcycling.
