5 Reasons the Pan America Motorcycle is right for you.

The Pan America is Harley-Davidson's first adventure touring bike. It’s a tool for long-distance excursions that’s equipped with plenty of amenities.

What’s Special About the Pan America That Makes It Great To Ride?
The Pan America is the lightest of Harley-Davidson’s touring models, making riding a breeze and perfect for long trips. The bike handles well and easily takes corners with its low center of gravity, giving riders a feeling of confidence and control. Five ride modes let you choose a bike setting based on your preference (Sport, Road, Rain, Off-Road, and Off-Road Plus). You can also create and save a custom combination of power delivery, engine braking, Cornering Enhanced Antilock Braking System (C-ABS), and Cornering Enhanced Traction Control System (C-CTS) settings.
Another benefit is the Adaptive Ride Height on the Pan America Special model. A factory-installed option that lowers the seat when you stop for a more confident, comfortable feeling. At speed, it keeps the suspension from sagging by adjusting the amount of preload, while continuously sensing how much weight you put on the seat.
The Harley-Davidson Pan America terrain adaptability

The adaptability to go on long routes on and off the road brings a whole new meaning to Harley-Davidson touring.
Limits are thrown out the window as the Semi-Active front and rear suspension with 191mm of travel on Balance Free Fork fronts and Balance Free Rear Cushion-lite, which coil over the rear shock with electronic preload control and semi-active dampening. Creating an incredible ride, no matter what the terrain is.
