I bought a Pan America: My First Ride Taking it Off-Road

[@mi6_007]

Kudos to you Matt, unlike other salesmen who say they ride the same motorcycle you're buying but they're bike is home, you really did it👍🏼You've proved the internet wrong that Harley dealership will not sell the pan am and steer customers towards classic models by putting down your own money. Pan am being a good bike or not, your dedication to work will take you places.

I took a test ride last week. Loved it... was putting down my deposit to buy one but they couldn't get me one with spoke wheels. I know all the other goodies are out of stock.. but I have to have spoke wheels.

[@steffenpfau2216]

I just gave in my Street Glide Special and bought a Pan America Special at my local HD dealer. The reasons are that the SGS was way to hard to handle at low speed and the Pan Am is lot more matching my everyday life, including my passion to go out geocaching, which often leads you off road or to abandoned places. A great difference I noticed when doing my test ride on the Pan Am was the ability to do lane splitting - with high summer degrees I was stuck in a huge Autobahn traffic jam. Ridin’ my broad, heavy and wobbly SGS it would have been a horroble jerk ride and I would have stood for hours in the jam - with the slim and movable Pan Am I did lane splitting and left the jam behind me in a short amount of time. This was the moment my inner voice said - no it screamed - „go and buy this bike!"

[@ocglide2566]

Its been 20 years since I drove my old jeep over those trails. One of them actually drops you off in Corona off the 15 by Corona Lake. Glad to hear there selling well.

Its bedford motorway, and theres some controversy right now, about a week ago some guy tried chaining it off and standing in the road with a gun, saying its his private driveway, despite it being a well known trail the public has used for 60+ years.

They are super comfortable compared to my other off-road boots. Now I'm a huge fan. Love them. Also a huge fan of the rest of gear, especially the helmet.

That little tab with the HD emblem on the front of the jacket is pretty cool.

Instead of the HD emblem, one would slide on a little sleeve displaying one's rank. I wonder if anyone's commented on that.

The Pan Am is such a cool bike - I know people compare it to the GS, but with the street performance coming in at such a high level, it's more like an American Multistrada IMO.

I'm going to miss the hell out of the Road King, but looking forward to new memories and adventures with the new bike! I'm also looking for the tank pads and black aluminum panniers - can't wait to see more PA content!

[@johngraves4967]

The pants NEED to be offered with a longer inseam!!! Thanks for the vid and info...

[@JOHNJCLARK]

Being 6'4 I agree

[@markchalloner5883]

In my experience most ADV specific jackets are too heavy and are loaded with too many gimicky features (16 pockets, kidney belts and water bladder sleeves). A good armored mesh jacket lets you ride comfortably in 100 degree heat. Add a wind proof thermal mid layer under, and a rain jacket over, and you're good to go down into the 30s. I prefer a waterproof pant with some good vents, because putting on rain pants on the side of the road sucks, but zipping up vents, and throwing on a rain jacket is pretty easy. Avoid anything where the removeable waterproof layer is on the inside. Taking off your jacket to zip it in while it's raining is just dumb. Just my 16 cents. The Pan Am looks like a killer bike. Good on Harley for finally making bikes that non Harley guys might actually want to buy.

[@MattLaidlaw]

That’s some solid advice. Thanks man. I agree that the jacket is really heavy.

[@slomobay6611]

I used to be an Orange County Deputy Sheriff (retired) and patrolled Silverado Canyon. I couldn’t believe they paid me to drive a Chevy Tahoe out there 😂. I rode to the peak many times. I never rode to the Ortega because it was beyond my patrol jurisdiction but the U S forestry service told me to take the Main Divide Road (Forest Rd S304) if I ever needed to escape from a wild fire (if the road back to Silverado was blocked). It puts you on the Ortega just east of Hell’s Kitchen.

Matt, you may want to consider soft or semi-rigid panniers for off-road riding. Hard panniers are usually toast after a fall and can cause an injury if you put your foot down while riding with kickback into the pannier. Congrats on the new adventure bike. Thanks for another honest review.

[@pistolpete6321]

That was pretty dicey passing that truck on the way up! Beautiful color on the PA! I test rode one last week and was very impressed.

[@Ritalie]

I know FortNine says to always wear high ankle hard boots, and hard plastic shielded gloves because broken ankles and broken wrists are the single most common motorcycle injuries. I guess when you crash a motorcycle, the ankle tends to take a lot of abuse, and when you fall off and catch yourself, it slams your hands on the ground, snapping your wrist. The hard shell gloves allow you to slide, instead of impacting. Soft leather boots will provide some protection, but hard boots would be far better, if you're planning on laying your bike down.

they didn't misjudge.. its just typical HD. A simple replacement fender can take weeks or even months.

[@ttrguy9952]

FYI. Avoid the aluminum side cases like the Plague! They are dangerous when off road trail riding. I have them On my triumph Tiger 1200 because the bike came with them. The aluminum cases are rigid, catch on branches and other things. If you get snagged the mounts will break and you are basically screwed with a detached case that you can't fix in the field. If you tip over and your leg is under the case you may be severely injured a long way out. Be patient and companies live Givi (they make the cases for the Pan America) or SW-Motek will have the soft cases soon. All my luggage now is from SW-Motek and it is the best made ADV gear on earth. It won't be long before they have the HD covered!

The stock tires, I classify them as 80/20 tires but they are confidence inspiring, especially on the road. We’ll see how they do for mileage. Matt, formADV off-road riding, grab one of the tank bags, they are handy as Hell and it puts the weight on the front suspension, where you want it in the twisty sections. Plus, tank bags keep the bike width narrow. I am really missing a tank bag, I’ll be ordering that as soon as they are available. Unfortunately the Pan Am has the raised section on top of the tank so the aftermarket bags aren’t going to work as well as the H-D branded bag with the molded bottom.
