The Scout Bobber weighs 254kg, 1kg up on the Scout. Tyres are now of the dual-purpose variety.
Like the Scout, the Scout Bobber comes with a single seat, with an optional rear seat and backrest. You can also opt for a slip-on performance exhaust and weather resistant saddlebags, both of which are available as accessories. The Scout Bobber is the fourth Bobber available in the country after the Harley-Davidson Forty Eight, Moto Guzzi V9 Bobber and Triumph Bonneville Bobber.
