Are touring motorcycles good for beginners?
Touring motorcycles put your feet forward and your seat low, which makes them easier to hold up at a stop than a bike with a tall, upright riding position. The Scout Sixty's 999cc engine and lighter weight make it the easiest starting point in this lineup; the Chief's added weight and power reward some time in the saddle first.
Customizations & upgrades
Every touring model in this lineup is built around a factory accessory catalog, not just aftermarket parts.
FAQs
Pursuit shares the liquid-cooled 1,834cc PowerPlus engine with the Chieftain and Challenger baggers, while Roadmaster runs the larger air-cooled 1,890cc Thunderstroke 116, built for sustained highway torque.
Yes. Every Roadmaster and Pursuit is built around a factory accessory catalog — comfort and seating, storage and luggage, and RIDE COMMAND and audio upgrades — so you can outfit the bike without leaving the lineup you started with.
Both families ship with full touring luggage built in — a top case and saddlebags — sized for extended trips rather than day rides.
Yes — that's the class's whole premise. Roadmaster and Pursuit both carry standard passenger accommodations and full wind protection built for hours in the saddle, not just an afternoon.
