A long-term project, the Harley-Davidson Pan America took a long time to reach production lines. A long wait which logically aroused questions and curiosity among all lovers of the brand. Presented only a few months ago, the Harley-Davidson Pan America is now entering the most decisive phase of its adventure, and must seduce the public.
According to the first feedback from Harley-Davidson dealers, things seem to be going pretty well for the 1,252 cc trail. The 150 horsepower V2, soberly called Revolution Max, is already successful, and according to the American dealers, the order books are already full. As for the few copies received, they were sold as soon as they arrived in the showrooms. Harley-Davidson has even announced the creation of waiting lists to be able to meet demand.
If the particular design of the motorcycle seems adopted, the price positioning of the Pan America 1250 seems to hit the mark. The American trail, sold for € 15,990 in France, is ideally placed with a more affordable price than its main competitors, whether the KTM 1290 Super Adventure S (€ 18,599) or the BMW R 1250 GS (€ 18,100).
A choice radically opposed to that made for Milwaukee’s first electric motorcycle, the LiveWire, hailed for its character but at the exclusive price (from € 33,900), and which is paying off according to the first returns from the dealerships. Harley.
Daring, risky and far from being won on paper, the choice made by Harley-Davidson to go all the way on its trail project seems well on the way to being won.
