Highlights

  • H-D Pan America 1250 receives good consumer response in the US
  • The Pan America 1250 is Harley-Davidson's first adventure motorcycle

The Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 is attracting high customer demand in the US home market, with models selling out instantly as they arrive at dealerships. According to latest reports, dealers are upbeat about the Pan America's prospects for two reasons. First, the motorcycle has been well-received by the media as a great product, with reviews commending the Pan America 1250's off-road and touring capabilities. Secondly, with a price tag of around $17,000 for the base model, Harley-Davidson's adventure tourer is priced competitively in the adventure touring category.

The Pan America 1250 however, is far from being the quintessential all-American heavyweight cruiser. It's an adventure touring motorcycle, powered by a performance-oriented new v-twin engine, the 1250 cc, 150 bhp Revolution Max engine, which is unlike the languid, torque-y v-twins used in the Harley cruisers so far.
