I accidentally edited the line about Subscribing twice. Sorry! I had a little fun with this one. It was a weird day and so much kept going wrong that I decided to throw away any script and just shoot from the hip. Hope you enjoy!
Nice video keep up the good work fella
Bro the plane the plane.. good video. Yea I been kicking around the idea of a new one. I have an ultra glide cvo. Not for off road 😂
Doing ride courses is always a good investment
I can't understand why some folks buy bikes, cars etc. and never use them. Never has made any sense to me. Things with engines, transmissions and wheels were made to be driven/rode! 🤘🏼💙
couldnt have said it any better myself . I have a Challenger hellcat daily car with 78k miles and a Harley ultra 21 model with 35k
Most people that have motorcycles do not ride them. Especially Harley riders. Just look in the used bike section. Countless 10+ year old bikes with 10,000 miles on them. I do at least twice that in a year.....LOL
No shame to anyone's game. Most people do not ride long distance or in bad weather. But as long a people are having fun when they do get to ride is all that matters.......
Great video. Love the assessment/breakdown. Good info. Thanks Rikki 🤝👍
Just ran across your channel. It's great seeing a real rocker who is also a REAL rider!..I actually met you around 01 or 02 when you came to the Guitar and Drum shop that I worked at when yall were touring through Raleigh Nc..We were actually carrying your signature sticks and Pork Pie. ANYWAY, my wife and are both avid adventure riders as well as rock fans so this is pretty awesome!..Ride safe wildman and we look forward to checking out more of your channel!
I walked away from Harley a few years back because of the price of the bikes and more importantly the money you pay for parts and labor. They absolutely kill you in the shop. You have to have deep pockets or be extremely handy working on them yourself. I’m extremely happy with my V -Strom 800 DE. Always love watching your videos Rik. One of my favorite channels. Stay safe on the road, things are wild out there these days
Great bike Rick. I still love the simplicity of a basic air cooled and my idea of high tech would be to have a disk break in the front. Aside from that I like to think this bike will bring Harley back around and make it truly competitive in the world market. Personally I think it has a lot to offer.
Nice job cutting in the various paint jobs. Great research. Rock on brother!
Beautiful ride and your voice edits w/ the bee are cracking me up. Can't wait to watch more Pan America content from you
I’ve been considering upgrading my 21 special for the CVO, if just to get away from the gremlins, but I’ve done so much to mine, I finally have it dialed in, but, you make a compelling case! I wasn’t a fan of the paint at first, then I saw it in person and absolutely loved it!! Congrats on on the new CVO brother!!
Fun vid, and bravo on supporting DGR! Wait, a plane is going by...
Did the ride in NY, we had 87 scoots in our group and raised over $30,000. Glad you're a survivor! Ride safe and free.
Cracking good video mate, well done!
CVO Pan America is a great bike...and it's good to know that you didn't mess up your paint dropping the previous one. Ride safe
Rockett ! ! ! Found your channel , subbed . Love the content
Could Hear That before you Went down,Awesome Share,Safe Travels,Keep Rockin 👊
Wow the colors looks fun 😊
Awesome bike. You are correct, made to ride not set. That CVO is sharp!
Rode it. Agree on the tighter chassis feel
Great take on your new CVO PAS! I have me a 2022 G.I. Enthusiast, I named "Old Abe", the name of the Screaming Eagle, of the famed 101st Airborne Division, the Division I served with in the Gulf War (1990-1991). Keep posting, I enjoy your content.....and "Ride On" brother!
Love the look of that paint! Thanks for your service, bro!
I think the best videos you do are the motorcycle videos-BAR NONE. You do a great job on your reviews on the bikes and the gear, keep them coming! P.S. LOVE your drumming! 🥁-Danny🎧
Just got a 2022 pan am special leftover in 2024 for 10k off sticker price, love it so far
Couldn’t agree more. Was a bummer that the Screamin Eagle Cannon exhaust didn’t come with it. Just installed mine yesterday
Cool. Caught another new video of yours 👍, yup, I'm taking off for Kansas City (ncom, national coalition of motorcyclists convention) tuesday or wednesday (depends on weather), then it's off to Nashville for a week.. gonna be a great ride. You have a good one, keep riding and have fun. Hope the D G Ride is awesome and has a great turn out. Ride on Rikki & keep rockin' !
Stay safe and thank you!
@@ThePoisonDrummer I have the gi edition fully loaded from quik shifter, vance and hines exhaust.adventure hwy pegs.a1 risers.black dog skid etc.I have had the whole harley lineup over the years mostly cvos.I only have 2 bikes now. The Pan And the livewire one both a thrill. The pan rides better on the hwy better then any harley i have had.
Going to buy a CVO Friday!! Thanks for the fun review!
Congrats on the new bike! 🤟
Kinda wishing I would have waited a year for the cvo and save me hours of wrenching. Still happy with my 23 though. Great video!
I have the 2022 Panam Special, the army green version, I love it, even with it's few problems. Mine is in the workshop at present, they are upgrading the alternator to the 2024 version, the old one broke, had a loose magnet that was causing it to cut out. I have dropped mine a few times, only scratching the crash bars.
CVO Panam, I think it should have had the Screaming Eagle exhaust. I have a V&H muffler, it is fantastic.
kick ass! I got a '22 last year. Ride safe.
Awesome Rikki!!! Any dirt bike content coming?
Other than the paint they added most of the bells and whistles. A lot of the stuff I would have done on my 22. I'm suprised they didnt update the exhaust. I'm excited about the new electircal system. If I were to upgrate bikes, it would be to that one.
I.ll take one of those and a new Vrod. Last time I saw you jam was Hershey park. Rock on
I freaking love your review man, and it was just what I needed to get my 2024 Pan America from my dealer in New London, CT. I actually told them: "I watched the best bike review from Ricky Rocket, and that's why I'm here..." They had no idea you reviewed this bike. Anyway, loving my new bike, and thank you for such a great/real review.
Wow! Thanks man! Enjoy! More to come!
I could be convinced! I rented one on Maui and wrung its neck around that island. I was impressed with the engine and the brakes especially. I hate on Harleys a little bit (I keep it to myself) but they did a good job on the PanAm.
They did a great job on the Low Rider ST too. Nimble as hell, comfortable for touring, and an absolute ripper.
Only thing your missing is studs for the tires and a snowmobile suit and come to Michigan for the winter fun .👍🏻
Glad to see you bought one! I love my PA Special. Fast as F!
Awesome looking bike - I've never been a huge fan of how Harley's look, but the Pan America's are great! We should go hit some trails sometime!
I’ve been eyeing the PA since it came out, but figured I should pay off my K1600 GTL before getting an adventure bike. Waiting on the GSA version of the GS1300, eyeing the Ducati Multistrada…and the PA. My 2003 HD Deuce was in the local shop for 10 weeks while they tried to source an original OEM wheel for it and I stopped by there every two weeks to check on their (lack) of progress…and I kept seeing that PA CVO in the showroom. Inching me closer. The Wife says it looks red to her…ha!
I freaking loved my 2023 pan American,so naturally I needed a cvo
@ThePoisonDrummer Yep!! What you said. I have the 2022 PAS with the Enthusiast Army/Vintage Paint. I take mine off road all the time. I use it but not abuse it. The guards are there to get scuffed up. I would totally rock a CVO!!! Thinking about trading up as well.
I’d love to have one. I’d like the green “army” one if I could find one.
I’m available to ride yours any time you need someone to take it out.
If I hadn't got such a killer deal on my brand new 23 2 months before that CVO came out well I would have bought one.
My 23 special I've done almost 6,000 mi in less than 4 months flawless.
It's tackled everything I've thrown in front of it and the bike is 100% more capable than I am riding it.
Did about a hundred miles up in wolfpend Gap four-wheeler trails and terrible gravel roads dropped it once and of course the Southwest Moto tech aluminum paneers do not hold up to that...
Anyway the bike is a beast, super fast, hangs with all my sport bike friends to about 140 tops out with stage 1 kit 150+.
After the last 1100 mi trip a hammered the bike the entire time and there was no change slap on the way home so I didn't have to bust out the tool kit and adjust the chain like everyone said I was going to have to.
I've adjusted to chain twice super easy with the cruise tools that I bought.
Finally figured out what paint I'm going to do on mine so it looks close to good as that CVO.
Your clit bait did get me because I was expecting to get on here and see somebody that test road one trying to make fun of it...
Absolutely amazing motorcycle.
I did upgrade the seat which I've had three so far and finally settled with the Wunderlist, I'm saving up the pennies for the mad stad windshield and Barkbuster handguards.
"IT'S THE SAME PLANE!!"
When I think of HD bikes that isnt what comes to mind but if it gets people on 2 wheels it cant be bad
That was really a funny video. I bought a 22 recently, brand new with lots of discount. Asked? Hey man, any reasons to buy a 23 or 24 version? No no, the only thing changed is the windshield "anti vibration thing". Now after 10 weeks and 3 breakdowns because of low battery by GOING 10.000 MILES IN THAT TIME. actually only motorcycle trips. I know.
There has been starter, light machine and battery upgrades since then. F*****
Enjoy your bike, keep us updated.
I bought a 2023 Pan America (PAM) Special and love it.. I hate the side kick stand. It leans way to much and when you the hard bags on you have to step peg it to get your leg over and the stand gives in soft terrain. 😢
Black Dog is working on a solution!
Beauty, bubba!
That CVO is truly epic. My Pan America Special (2023) in Vivd Black is also epic. I have mine all tricked out (totally) and the last bit I'm going to do to it is take it apart and have the engine guards and rear foot peg brackets powder coated RED.
Totally bad a$$.
Enjoy, bro!
marcus
Most Excellent........................Cheers!
Good evening from Minnesota the 4 string wild-man on the Washburn riding my Tenere 700 ‼️‼️‼️
I love the T-7!!!
Check out my Tenere 700 video: ua-cam.com/video/3Wt4Fqwlu_Y/v-deo.htmlsi=u-boWR3979lgx-xI
I have a 21 PA. I have been lucky and my bike has been outstanding. This bike is amazing, but I feel it gets way too much hate on line. If you are a brand loyal person, this bike likely won’t turn your head away from euro and Japanese bikes. It also is not embraced enough by traditional HD guys. My dealership in Edmonton is outstanding. Bottom line, buy what you like. Do your research. Be honest with yourself on the type of riding you want to do, and just get out on two wheels. The CVO is amazing looking. You are 💯 correct, by the time you add all the accessories you will want, you basically have the CVO close to that price. You should look into some bark busters or tour tech hand guards. The bark busters are likely more solid, but the tour techs look better, however they have a lot of small pics to assemble. Great video. 👍
Ya know, Panhead peeps thought shovelhead bikes weren't real Harleys. Shovelhead peeps thought Evolution motors were real Harleys and the beat goes on.
I guess that is true. I was never a big Harley guy, always in to Japanese and European bikes. The only other Harley I had on my wish list as a kid was a V-Rod. I still really like those bikes and I rented one for a week once. I was very impressed. The PA is not for everyone, but I think most people should keep an open mind and take one for a spin, as they should many other bikes to really see what fits them and meets their needs. 👍🏻
Hahaha, I bought one too! Congrats. I already scarred my CVO but what the hell it’s for riding. It can be painted again I guess. Enjoy it borther
I owned a 21 and a 22 and loved them. Traded the 22 for a 23 Heritage 120th Anniversary, but having thoughts to trade it in on a 24 PAS CVO
You sound like me! I keep changing my mind!
I haven’t had the pleasure of riding one yet. I live in Canada and every time I pass by a logging road on my bike, I say “ boy I wish I could ride that road “. Someday!
I’d bought it if I could even get close to touching lol. I’m still 3 inches from the ground lol. But it sure is a beauty. They did a great job on it.
I ended up buying the 24 CVO ST road glide instead
Dude! I am buying that bike today. Hope to see out there.A fellow drummer rides on.
EXCELLANT!!!
It's a fun bike for sure! I'd love to have it as a second bike
im going to get one for sure..
Hope ya got a reach around buying that. Obviously you like the special rear loving if it's your second.
I have one too
I dig it!!!!
I'm a beemer guy but that looks pretty good! Do you still have the Roadglide?
I don't. I used that money to get this.
Did you like your Roadglide? I bought a heritage softail about the same time you bought that. I loved the bike but that 114 would get so hot on hot days it would vibrate really bad and lose a lot of power. Keep in mind that it is free air instead of twin cooled like a Roadglide. I ended up trading mine after 6 months for a BMW R1250RT. I love that bike.
I'd like to know what TC said!
I don’t know how I haven’t seen your videos before! I have been looking at Pan America videos for over a year and never saw one of yours. Well mister I’m hooked. You’re funny as f*ck and your content is amazing. I currently have a TriGlide (cuz I’m old) but I’m itching to get onto a PA. Thanks again and yes, I did subscribe
The Triglide's are freakin' cool! No longer an old person bike at all! Yeah, get on one though and thank you!
It's pretty comparable to anyone else's fully dressed big ADV bike, isn't it? BMW, Ducati, KTM, all these manufacturers charge a small fortune for their top tier, fully accessorized ADV bikes from what I understand. Why shouldn't Harley? I think it's a killer bike! I think the Pan America, in general, is one of the best-looking bikes being made right now. It's got a totally unique and totally Harley Davidson stance. I have thought about trading in for one myself, but it's really hard to part with my FXLRS.
These things go for around $10k AUD now for a 21’ model here in Australia. I’d pay that for one but no way would I buy new.
Its the best adventure bike ever. Since one week a have the same cvo panam. I drive the first 600 km. It is a beast.
I'll admit that when it first came out I wondered "No engine work? What's the point?" But..... I bought one a couple weeks ago, and don't think it's a waste at all!
I had a 10 year old KTM that I loved, but was suddenly in a position to get a new Pan-Am. And while I was going to just get a "regular" RA-S, I knew I'd want the luggage for sure. There was a $6000 price difference between the RA-S and the CVO & I realized that the final cost of the 3 cans & mounting gear would be about $2300-2500....that's almost half that price difference.
Then I started looking at all the things the CVO came with besides the luggage & paint job; There's a ton, like the better seat, better skid-plate, quickshifter......so many little things like the radiator grill, better grips, tank pads, etc. While a lot of those are things I could live without, I realized after doing the math that you really DO get your money's worth with the CVO. (And I don't have to do the work to install any of it!) And that doesn't even count the extras it comes with like the tool kit & cover.
I eventually realized that "it's a $3000 paint job" is really more just a couple hundred, and that amazing black metal-flake & "orange" (Red!) is worth it. It looks amazing.
I was just talking about this yesterday. Tons of comments were that the Pan Am doesn't sell that well to begin with, why make a CVO version, especially for a bike that is an ADV bike? Well, it's selling really well! It's because of the reasons you listed and many of the reasons I mentioned!
@@ThePoisonDrummer Yep! I've seen a lot of limited-edition HDs that really are nothing but a $4000 paint job (.....LR-ST Diablo...), but the CVO PanAm really does give you the value of its pricetag just by including ALL the options. 😃
Bike is sweet but dude you are awesome!!
Me too
Rikki... have u received the red Strip on your black belt,?
Noooo. May never see that. Who knows.
It’s a great bike!
So during Covid i picked up a Klr 650 i have fully kited it out. Why because it is by far the most reliable bike on the market with parts history going back to the 70s that will work on this bike today. That being said, As much as i like japan. I want an adventure bike that is AMERICAN. that's what i want. i wanted to pull the trigger on the Harley. When it first launched it had a crap ton if issues. and it was all over the place. To be honest I sorta let it go and till today. I have not even checked it out, and I ran across your vod. So ill watch the video and post back with Qs hehe thanks for the vod.
I like it. Except the price. But ya I even suggested it to Itchy Boots!
@@EdwardMann Yes, it is pricey, but if you don’t want all the trimmings you can save a lot with a regular one. If you want the bags and all that stuff it’s priced right.
That's a badass bike. 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Not too crazy about the look but I guess it’s cool for off road riding.
The Harley Davidson cvo Pan America should have gotten a power upgrade to 195 horsepower.
And don't forget the installation cost for all those accessories! Then it's a wash, but if you have a CVO, you're always one step ahead.
Nice bike man.
Because it’s pretty normal that old big pockets buy any sheit available, i.e. MV Agusta dirt, CVO dirt, Ducati dirt, …
Rikki Rockett rides? I am pleasantly suprised to catch up with my guy, all these years later. Just riding a bike. Good to see you brother, I hope all is well.
Those bags are a helluva lot more than $1300 at the dealer
I already like the look of the Pan America and the more i see it the more i like it 😂 the Pan America just may end up in the garage as well
I like the Pan Am but I will never pay more than $20,000 for a motorcycle.
A special ‘Special’ 😂
LOL
I'll stick to the metric endurance bike, who needs a bike with that much power, I'll stay with realiabty
I prefer the KLR to the Pan America and it’s 1/3 of the price!!! 😂😂😂
I mean if your heart is set on buying a Harley, why on earth would you buy something other than the Dirt Glide?
The Pan America is probably the best bike coming out of H-D these days.
Which doesn’t say much about the rest of the crap Harley produces … 😂
This is the bike I wanted over any because I couldn’t see buying a bike you can’t take on and off the road . Bad bike they have the same one in flint mich at vehicle city Harley Davison . If I could of lowered it to the ground more I would of bought it
Trick question, why would anyone buy new, sure that's obvious. But in the used market some of these Harleys have lost half there value and are reasonable. All of the big bore adventure bikes are big and heavy, have great road manners and can handle dirt roads. No big design flaws in the HD and it's a brand that people buy outside of price or technical comparison. Not great but it's a motorcycle and the brand really really really matters to a certain part of the market segment
I wanted it. Simple.
Because your not thinking?
The buy them because they wanna Ride The Wind!
It's always the people that don't even own something that have an opinion.
Thats true about Harleys in general
❤
If your thrashin your crashin.
Id buy one too
😂
morning news a plane crash happened bullets in engine block hmmmm
Because it's American adv.if not for any other reason
the plane may have been a student pilot. they have to stay within a certain area.
Special Special baby
Würde sie mit einem anständigem Motor kaufen. Der Sound ist nicht Harley. Also fällt sie raus.
Don't need no thing but a dirt road
