It’s great to see a Harley Dealer taking this bike seriously and putting some time into showing some of the great products for this new machine. I realize stock and supply is crap this year but so far I haven’t seen many dealers in my area do anything for this offering from Harley.
@@grandtetonharley-davidson8690 no problem, looking forward to more content in the future, great setup on the one you put together, glad they offer a way to get rid of that stock exhaust!
This video is really well made. I love hearing your mechanic describe everything. I don't own a Pan America, but your videos about it have been exceptional. I am waiting for you to release more review videos, and general videos about it.
They should add some lights on their boxes behind. The big issue about adv motorcycle is around the visibility on a night road. You can compare with Harley Davidson touring motorcycle; they have lights on their trunk. I watched a Honda Africa Twin; the brake light is smaller than one on a sport motorcycle.
Nice to see the accessories that can be bought for this bike, i mean im sold already but it is definitely a good and worthwhile video to watch if your thinking of buying this beast
I live in Shasta lake ca the girl at the front desks told me they've had one of these there for four months and she has yet to see someone sit or even ask about it exept for me unreal I would love one of these to sit next to my 2005 dyna wide glide in my garage
Thanks for showing the accessories, etc. Am waiting on most of these accessories which are on back order. I installed the top case mounting plate prepping for the arrival of the top case. The top case mounting plate is on sliders that have about 1/2 inch side to side movement. What’s the purpose of the side to side movement? Well after some research, I found the answer myself. On a Pan American review UA-cam video by ADV during one of the Pan-American demo events at Zakar, a Harley Davidson factory parts and accessories technician described the purpose of the side to side motion of the top case rack. The movement essentially provides a better center of gravity for the bike with a top case/luggage during cornering.
@@hdnet2112 why not provide a link to their website. Who's whining? I'm merely pointing out that they could tell us how much this stuff is going to add to the OTD price but they don't want to do this because it will be quite sobering - like about $5G.
Ya, just picked mine up last Thursday... can’t even get oil filters for it. Everything is back ordered. Guess I have a bone stock Pan Am until at least mid September
Great video now to decide if I will trade my RGS and then the waiting especially for the "Farkles" or "HARKLES" they are so backordered that it could be months they are telling me
Got the same response from the dealerships close to me. In manufacturing, they can adjust for such demand in a matter of months if needed. Hope they utilize the plant they closed in Kansas to start making these Pan Americas. It's a good thing for Harley because the BMW GS and GSA models far outsell any other motorcycle BMW makes and if Harley starts tapping into that market especially with their dealership network. That is going to be a real good thing for Harley.
Over $6k just for the accessories mentioned in this video. The good new is it shouldn't take long for aftermarket accessories to appear with lower prices.
Thanks for the video, it would be really nice if you put details on the installation of the raisers. I am looking to do it on my own, and I wonder how are the screws in the raiser and if could fit another brand that is less than 2 inches...due to TFT view obstruction. THANKS
Man that thing looks awfully HEAVY, you're going to need an entire support team to help you pick it up if you ever drop it! What is the wet weight before and after the mods? Nice thorough video though!
This was kickass! Got some great ideas from your video. Im a tall guy 6’7 so i am used to riding an Africa Twin or BMW GSA; you think that “Tallboy” seat will get me as high as those bikes? Also, is there a way to possibly lower the foot pegs? The bar riser is a must.And I really like how you mounted the GPS. Great idea. Thanks!!
Our owner is 6'6" with a 36 inch inseam and this Pan America was setup for him. The stock seat height is 32 inches and the Tall Boy seat adds an inch for a total height of 33 inches. It's a comfortable setup for our owner who logs thousands of miles a year. The Africa Twin is 34.3 inches and the GSA is 35 inches or 35.8 inches based on setup.
Nice video brother.. I did test ride it yesterday.. nice bike . But little bit heavy.. if you don’t mind can I ask if how much you total spent on modification? Thanks …Watching from PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭
I did the same with my orange and white bike except I had to put the wheels and knobby tires on next months budget. I also ordered a service manual. hsnt come in yet.
I bought a new to me 2021 Pan America Special with 4000km and laced wheels. I put the ultimate trekker package on it, quick shifter is still not compatible for the 2021's got a small credit for that. Bought the Vance and Hines 450 HO exhaust in black. The bike is gauntlet grey. I also purchased the sundowner seat and pillion. Quad lock phone mount with charger and vibration dampener. Just trying to figure out which highway pegs now...🤔🤔😂
On accessories, do you know if there are or will be crash bars that extend further out to help in picking this heavy bike up when it is laid down on an off-road trail? On a Harley touring chassis, you have the extension of crash bars that make it easy to pick the bike up.
Just picked my PAS up : Out the door with most of the Upgrades reviewed $26,825. $1600 cheaper then the BMW 1250 GSA I was looking at comparably outfitted and to be truthful the BMW dealership treated me like I was idiot for wanting a low suspension option bc I'm vertically challenged in the AV world. HD salesman focused on the adaptability of the ARH. Test road both, they really are very similar riding bikes.
Make sure you have your local dealer order parts with your VIN#. H-D is prioritizing shipments for individuals with motorcycles but the orders need to be done with your VIN#.
It looks nice and all. I don't doubt the performance on it. There are pros and cons for any adv bike out there. But for me, I think the cost of ownership is a little on the high end. I might lean on a Suzuki v-Strom or Yamaha Tenure just for the intended use that I will be more likely to fall when off-roading as I am not as proficient as other riders. I will be cringe if it gets scuffed up. I feel like owning this will prevent me from utilizing its potential use and just use it for on the road use which I don't want it to because I already have a motorcycle for that. What do others think?
@@grandtetonharley-davidson8690 Nice. My Moto Guzzi came with those standard. not bad bit of kit. more importantly, accessories and replacement parts can be gotten from SW Motech. Im surprised how many people have bikes with these bags think they can only get the bits from the bike manufacturer.
Q1. Parts-wise, is it metric-sized nuts and bolts? Q2. For a six-foot rider, do the risers interfere with the view of the bottom of the TFT/gauges? Many thanks!
Metric. We don't think the risers will interfere with the view of the bottom of the TFT based on your height but recommend you sit on one at your local dealership to make sure.
Nice!! Solid video… question: I just trying to finish the installation of my top case, but is not clear on the instructions if you can install the top case bracket and the passenger handle, on my bike doesn’t fit after you install the base you cant install back the handler… please help me out… looks ugly with the screw holes…

How do you power the Garmin or smartphone that many of an adventure rider mounts on their handlebar? I understand there is no USB power outlet in the front for such.
hi maybe you can help me fix my problem: pan america special 2021. from Wisconsin to Costa Rica! no HD dealer here but HD lovers!! my keyfob is not working changed battery and no response, need to start using pin codes. what do i need to do to match the keyfob with the bike??
Ordered my pan 3 weeks ago did not order the riser for the bars. Looks like i have to remove the tank for install. Is it really necessary?. I found aftermarket pegs that are adjustable for angle would they be better than the fixed angle? They Come with 17 studs in gold stainless black pegs.
Just watched a video with a guy fitting the rack for the side panniers where he had to take a hammer to the lefthand side mounting frame as the holes were out by a fair bit, did you have this issue, or was it just bad luck on his part
Get this! You buy the adv bike but guess what! you gotta buy excessories to go on an adventure,tobe safer and protect the bike.(marketing get it)should be on when you buy it ! Who gets the best deal? I like to keep it American to but this is when it hurts

Just how i want mine setup! Debating soft bags instead of the hard
Can't go wrong with either one. If you plan to do a lot of riding in technical off-road terrain, we'd definitely recommend the soft bags.
I went to buy Mosko Moto...out of stock again!
Pretty much the one i want. Thank you!
You're welcome!
