HARLEY-DAVIDSON INTRODUCES THE NEW PAN AMERICA 1250 AND PAN AMERICA 1250 SPECIAL
For adventures on and off paved roads
The Harley-Davidson Pan America is the right bike for explorers who like to take a detour - on the road and off-road. The robust, strong and technologically advanced machine quickly wins the rider's trust and awakens his sense of adventure wherever his path takes him.
Harley-Davidson offers the new adventure touring bike in the Pan America 1250 and Pan America 1250 Special versions. Both have impressive features, outstanding performance and innovative technology in common.

Harley-Davidson for adventure
“Since the company's beginnings more than a century ago, when many roads were little more than dirt roads, Harley-Davidson has stood for adventure. “That’s why I’m very proud to present the Pan America as the first American adventure touring bike,” said Jochen Zeitz, Chairman, President and CEO of Harley-Davidson.
“The Pan America models exude that go-anywhere spirit that is shared by drivers across the U.S. and around the globe today. They want to experience the world on a motorcycle.” The same spirit of adventure also inspired actor Jason Momoa to represent the spirit of Pan America as a brand ambassador for Harley-Davidson.
The Pan America 1250 and Pan America 1250 Special models are powered by the new 112 kW (152 hp) Revolution Max 1250, a liquid-cooled V-twin with a displacement of 1,250 cm³ that offers powerful performance up to the highest speeds.
Pan America supplies
In order to reduce the overall weight of the motorcycle (empty weight including operating materials: Pan America 1250: 245 kg, Pan America 1250 Special: 258 kg), the Revolution Max 1250 also serves as a supporting element of the chassis.
The Pan America models are equipped with numerous innovative technologies that ensure a more intense driving experience and greater safety. This includes various selectable driving modes and the electronic assistance system package Cornering Rider Safety Enhancements. The latter adapts the acceleration and deceleration forces to the available tire grip.
The semi-active chassis
The Pan America 1250 Special is equipped with an electronically adjustable semi-active chassis. For the first time, Adaptive Ride Height (ARH) is optionally used on this machine. This revolutionary system automatically lowers the chassis when stationary and raises it again when driving.
Throughout the development process of the new Pan America models, the Harley-Davidson design and engineering teams kept the practicality of the machines in mind. From grab handles to integrated luggage holders to a horizontally positioned headlight that perfectly illuminates an off-road trail, function defines form.
Inspired by the spirit of rugged North American off-road vehicles, the Pan America 1250 and Pan America 1250 Special models visually stand out from other adventure touring motorcycles with a design that reflects their capabilities.
Harley-Davidson authorized dealers offer a complete range of accessories for the Pan America 1250 and Pan America 1250 Special models, including three robust luggage systems and new motorcycle clothing for men and women, developed by Harley-Davidson in collaboration with renowned European motorcycle clothing specialist REV'IT! has developed.
The Pan America models are expected to be available from European dealers in June 2021.
I'm thinking about buying the Pan-America. Never had an HD. Now to my question: I saw the price for tires at Parts twice as expensive as tires from Michelin without HD printing. Do you have to drive these tires or would the normal ones from Michelin work?
Hello Oliver, I'm not sure if Michelin already offers it without the Harley logo. That would only come into question once you have ridden the original equipment manufacturers clean, until then the price will certainly change.
Many greetings,
