The Pan America is a motorcycle manufactured and marketed by Harley-Davidson, introduced in 2018 for the 2020 model year.
The motorcycle enters motorcycling's ADV (adventure) segment, straddles Adventure, Sport-Touring and Dual Sport descriptions, trading strength in a single area for adaptability to a variety of riding conditions: commuting, adventure touring, and to a lesser degree, off-road riding. The ADV segment had grown significantly prior to Harley Davidson's entry.
The Pan America is powered by a liquid-cooled 1,250 cc 60 degree Revolution Max V-twin engine. Industry analysts said it was most likely to compete with street-oriented adventure tourers like the BMW R1250GS.[5]
During its ownership of the Buell Motorcycle Company, Harley Davidson offered a similar offroad-capable Ulysses XB12X, beginning in 2005.
