Got to laugh when I finally hear Harley Davidson guys be able to actually talk about the performance of a HD without having to lie to themselves and everyone else 😂👍. Go Harley welcome to modern motorcycles.
Thanks for the review. I live in Spain, and I’ve changed my Street Glide Special’16 last February for the new RA1250S ... can’t wait to ride this end of the month ;-)
I'm a new Subscriber! I was planning on going with the Road King Special but now sinc I've been really investigating the Pan America Special I think I've found my next bike. Thanks for the excellent video, I can't wait for the next one.
@@grandtetonharley-davidson8690 Great news! I knew it was happening soon. Y’all have to be excited for this new era at the dealerships too. 👍 Can’t wait to take one out.
At least when you do drop it you don't crack a cylinder head like some other manufacturers ;) That said I'd go for a middleweight like the Yamaha Tenrie or BMW 900GS I'd I wanted a serious adventure bike. This looks like it stacks up well against the compatition but I think you've missed the bus. I think people are starting to look for lighter ADV bikes.
I really don't think anyone who can afford a Pan American in America, will ever go near any real dirt trails with one of these bikes. The Demographic of Harley riders is primarily Dentists and Construction Foreman. I just don't see people going on dirt on a $25,000 bike (supply and demand and factory add ons). Although they have created an entirely new market, which never existed with American bikes, so dirt riding might become a thing in time. In the past, you didn't get a high performance street bike that was also a high performance dirt bike. Nothing like that existed in North America. Most people still don't know that real "Dual Sport" bikes exist, because 15 years ago, they didn't. It will be interesting to see how this changes motorcycling, now that "dirt" is a valid option.
The Pan America pricing starts at less than $20K...not $39K. It's price competitive and performance competitive with other big adventure motorcycles in the category. We have several reservations for this motorcycle already and most people want to set it up with a more "dirt" or "off-road" orientation.
Whatchu talking about " In the past, you didn't get a high performance street bike that was also a high performance dirt bike. Nothing like that existed in North America." KTM was here. BMW was here. Honda. Ducati. Triumph. Yamaha. Etc. All these companies made bikes that can go almost anywhere in the dirt and haul arse on the road. ADV bikes existed LONG before HD decided to get in that market. Dual sports didn't exist 15 years ago? Yeah. You don't know what you're talking about.
@@monunyabidness5949 I don't remember anything that had a smooth street engine with over 100 horsepower 15 years ago that was a competitive dirt bike in the USA. KTM hasn't used counter balancers properly until very recently so their engines haven't been any good for long street driving. The Suzuki VStrom I think came out in 2008. And before that only BMW had anything approaching a real Adventure Bike. Where I'm at nobody owns BMW.
@@grandtetonharley-davidson8690 Was joking about $39K, but by the time it's actually sold to the consumer, with the extreme demand, and optional accessories, I could see it being over $30K.

Subbed fellas. Here in the home of Big Foot, Humboldt County, Northern California.
I'm third on the list at Redwood Harley Davidson.
Right on! Beautiful part of the USA! The demo units should start landing this week at dealers across the country.

Hey Pinkie I'm to the south of you in Mendocino County. Did they give you an ETA on your bike?
@@ThankGood123 Pick up the Pan America today or tomorrow. I’ve got a crazy work schedule this week but I should ride Mendocino one of these days.
Good review. I subscribed.
Thanks for the sub!
Everything is perfect on this bike. I still have no clue why in the hell they left quick shifter.
Bike sounds amazing
Even better in person!
I was there when they unloaded the bikes in Scottsdale Harley Davidson, and one dude dropped one inside the truck
Yikes!
Waiting to see the new midweight Honda Translap. May go with a Husky 701.
Pan America Special. Not the stock bike. And the specials had options...
Awesome..
🙌
Want.

Buy a tee-shirt and get a motorcycle for free.
Another tractor loud and slow
This “tractor” sure can take you a lot of cool places though! 🔥
