With a unique blend of country, rock, and vintage pop influences, Nikki Lane is a trailblazing country music star known for her edgy style and genre-defying sound. With a voice that echoes the spirit of the open road and lyrics that paint vivid stories of rebellion and romance, Nikki has captured the hearts of music lovers around the world. But there’s more to Nikki Lane than just her powerful presence on stage and in the studio.
Few know that behind her signature wide-brimmed hats and vintage-inspired outfits, Nikki has a deep-seated passion for vintage motorcycles, a love in which she inherited from her father. This love for classic two-wheelers isn’t just a hobby—it’s a way of life that perfectly complements her free-spirited persona.
Participating in Indian Motorcycle’s Forged custom build program, Lane was the recipient of an all-new, custom 2025 Indian Scout – built and designed from iconic bike builder Brittney Olsen.
This one-of-a-kind motorcycle isn’t just a ride; it’s a work of art that mirrors Nikki’s distinctive style and adventurous soul. With intricate detailing and a nod to vintage aesthetics, this bike is a testament to her love for the open road and timeless design.

Indian Motorcycle’s Forged custom build series highlights how customization and personalization was at the forefront when Indian Motorcycle designers and engineers began developing the next evolution of Indian Scout. The Scout’s new steel tube frame delivers an approachable platform for customization, as the tank, fenders and subframe can be easily removed and replaced.
Indian Motorcycle’s Forged custom build program is a six-part video series highlighting three unique interpretations of the all-new 2025 Indian Scout, inspired by the stories and personalities that have made the Scout such an icon for more than a century. Each design and development video will roll out in the coming weeks, while final reveals will take place later this summer.
