    Absolutely love my 2024 Pan Am. To any prospective buyers, make sure it IS a 2024. They have all the updates, inluding the coated fuel tank that stops fuel from eating the interior lining and killing fuel pumps. You may be tempted to buy a used 21-23 because they are dirt cheap used. Just don't do it, no worth the headache.

      Good point. Definitely want a 2024 on these.

    I really like how the dealer started off with the elephant in the room of the first few model years reliability. If dealers / manufactures would admit to issues I’d be far more forgiving of them.

    I've owned the Harley Pan America Special and traveled on it. Now I have Multistrada V4S and it simply does everything the Harley does and more and it does everything just a little bit better. And it is more comfortable on any road from highway to dirt. Just sayin'.

    Here are some great add Ons i did for the Pan . I did get a 2022 a year ago and it was brand new so i have another year warranty. Here are some add ons. Vance and hines hi-output exhaust, A-1 2 up and 1 in bar risers. Adventure hwy pegs.Panzoma gps mount.Denaili air horn (its loud)Black dog skid plate Harley Auxiliary lights (super powerful)Radiator guard and light guard.harley quik shifter (2022 and newer you can add) 80 grit foot pegs. Of course back storage from Harley.CVO shifter and brake lever. There is a few more. I want you to think about this. I can buy any harley i want. I have had mostly cvo.This bike has so many dynamics you can choose at a hit of a button and you can customize your own modes. They are intense..560 pounds with 150 hp. Come on its insane.The handling of the bike even on hwy for long rides is the best i have ever riden for all the harleys ive had.My advice if you want a swiss army bike that does EVERYTHING awesomely.Go try the Pan.Also keep in mind that there are some 2022 23 out there that you may be able to get a steal on.I havee had NO problems and there is only slight mods done for the 2024. battery upgrade ,Some lighting upgrades. There was a few radiator hose problem's which were corrected in 2022. All bikes cars and manufactures can and will have problems.getting a 2024 Harley pan doesn't mean you wont either. I would get a 2022 and above , especially if you can find one new like i did.Save some bucks and hold the warranties for a few years

    Great bike. Shame about the headlight. They should give it a 'face', like an Afrika Twin for example.

    • @DucatiDiaries
      @DucatiDiaries  Місяць тому +1

      People are split on the face for sure. I like it. I think it's kind of rugged and offroad-y looking.

    • @paulwojnar2291

      It has a face.
      A bull shark face.
      They purposely chose this look as opposed to the over done bird beak look.
      I had a 2022 that I traded for a 2024 only because I was on the cusp of losing the trade value at 21,000 miles on it and that it was 2 years old.
      My dealer gave me a bit of a break on the price on the 24.
      2 thousand off of the MSRP..
      For the record the only issue on the 22 was the fuel pump getting noisy at 19,000 miles and was replaced under warranty.
      I love the Pan America and dont see myself ever without one.

      Thanks brother. The base model is actually pretty reasonable for $20K for what you get (the 150hp and 95 lb ft of torque but also the most advanced electronic suspension on the market). The CVO model is definitely pricey. :o|

      Pick what feals good to you. Comparable bikes are more expensive, and have their own issues. Nobody is buying a motorcycle as a good money move

    • @DucatiDiaries
      @DucatiDiaries  Місяць тому +2

      I disagree on the pricing. The Pan America comes very highly rated by owners and motorcycle reviewers. I think it's top notch and at $20K for the base model, there is a LOT of technology in this bike, such as the most advanced e suspension you can get.
