Pan american----------very interesting------I have to say I hope they succeed , but venturing into this market they better have their stuff together. I recently bought a ktm 1290 adventure s and I must say it is hands down the best bike Ive seen or ridden in a long time. Outstanding electronics , suspension, comfort , performance , handling and cost less than half what my road glide cost. Gets better mileage too and is a 160 HP bike. With HD having no dakkar , or baja experience no R&D in that market I don't understand how they intend to produce an adventure bike that can compare with whats available now. They better have good suspension (what they have now sucks) be in the 500 pound range for a 1250 cc bike(all the other available comparable models are) and be nimble , quick, and comfortable. Best of luck to them , it will be interesting to see. The one disadvantage I see in the adventure market is seat height. The lowest ones that are any good have a 33.5 inch seat height. Mine is 34.5-----problem for short guys. It can be done , you just have to learn the techniques. Most Pro MX guys are short and their works bikes are very tall------35 or 36 in most cases---------. Again ,I hope they know a home run, no one wants to see them go broke I don't think.
