Twisted Choppers Backdraft Slash Cut Exhaust Header For 2015-2024 Indian Scout
The Backdraft turns your Scout’s exhaust note from stock-quiet to unmistakably present — a deep, aggressive tone that announces your arrival and transforms every ride into something riders around you actually notice. Built in the USA and engineered to clear factory pegs, it’s the kind of exhaust upgrade that changes how the bike feels as much as how it sounds.
Key Features
- Major sound improvement for riders who prefer loud, aggressive exhaust character
- Non-removable baffles tuned for exhaust scavenging with minimal sound reduction
- Oxygen sensor bungs and adapters included — no additional hardware required for O2 sensor retention
- Clears factory passenger pegs in standard configuration
- Eliminates excess weight over stock exhaust
- Available in uncoated, black, and chrome finishes
- Made in the USA

I was not ready for the sound difference. I got these because I’ve always hated the wining noise I could hear with the stock exhaust that almost sounded like a Jetson car. But damn the look and the sound has me excited to ride all the time. The installation was easy and the parts are good quality.

great sounding exhaust, definitely not quiet if that’s what your looking for. You will be heard for sure. Install was easy once the stock exhaust is removed.
The mounting bracket could come with more directions. It comes with adapters for your sensors to be screwed into. The would have been easier to put in with the exhaust off the bike. Was also my first time changing an exhaust on a motorcycle.
Overall really happy with this purchase, thank you twisted! no stickers? : (
