H-D Pan America
Discussion
They are publishing the prices on a US site
Pan America - starting at $17,569
Pan America Special - starting at $20,249
At the proper exchange rate it looks quite competitive but at 1:1I’m out

I am not a HD fan, as they dont really fit my riding style or size, but I am really interested in the Pan Am.
I am in the US and the prices are VERY competitive. 150HP, just shy of 100 lbs/ft and not too heavy, all for $20k! Its a good price when you compare that to BMW GS which is really a $24k motorcycle when you add some of the essential items. The dealer network, accessories and potential for some of the standard spec, it does look good.
The looks are little odd, but I have to say that those 'nightbreaker' lights are excellent and the standard cornering ABS and cruise are interesting. Just have to see what the ride is like.

Harleys are not too bad on price if you look at the USD price and you are paid in GBP, whereas Euro imports like BMW are expensive in USA so expect it to be very competitive in the huge home market and will probably sell well.
By the time something in USD makes it over here, its never quite the same e.g. a new Corvette thats a relative $65k bargain some how ends up being over £80k
Will be interesting to see the UK pricing.

£14k base seems OK?By the time something in USD makes it over here, its never quite the same e.g. a new Corvette thats a relative $65k bargain some how ends up being over £80k

Glad to see that they have priced it appropriately for the UK market though! They could have gone high and claimed exclusivity, but seems that they want to crack this market. Good!

If it performs as well as its peers, then hopefully HD should be onto a winner.

So the 'Special' with a base price of £15,500 can have all optional extras and still come in under £17,000.
That includes adaptive ride height, semi-active suspension, stainless steel laced wheels, advanced LED 'Daymaker' headlight, heated grips, centre stand, etc.
All models have 5 riding modes, with more advanced features on the Special. Good video here:

So no PCP offered. Base model bang on £14k on the road. Next model up which has 'wire' wheels and more colour options along with adaptive suspension £16,950 on the road. No discounts sir so either outright purchase or finance them at Harleys rates...
Can't wait to see one in the flesh.
