Hello all. So this past Saturday told my dealer I was ready to place an order for a PA. Since I have done so much business with them over the last 9 years, he was like done. Two hours later as I am about to get into the Smokies I get a call that a bike they had sold fell through and did I want want it? Seriously! Hell yes. So as of yesterday I am now the proud owner a PA. Of course I can't get any of the accessories, but I am riding!!!
That's me on the left with the big *** smile

2 years and 20K miles for me and I love my Pan. Yes I have had some issues, the major one being a failed stator which caused loads of electrical gremlins. Replaced under warranty (after a wait for parts), and battery upgraded to lithium by the dealer. Starter clutch done and the bike runs nearly flawlessly.
I do have the problem that it wont go into neutral when warm unless I give a good blip on the throttle, but there is a service bulletin for that and the dealer is currently waiting for parts and will swap out the entire clutch assembly under warranty (extended).
Other than that, I get a "side stand down" error very occasionally which can cause the bike to cut out. That will also be fixed when the clutch is done.
All in all, I would and will buy another one. I figure most of the teething problems are now sorted. I will wait for the 1300 or 1350 version that is sure to come out in a year or two. Will keep mine until then - love the bike!

Not from my side. I don't do enough adventure miles to make the decreased weight worth it. In fact, I have 100% road tires on my Pan right now (Pirelli Road Angel GT 2) and absolutely love it for the kind of touring that I do - which is mainly down to France, Belgium, Germany, Spain to play around on the mountain twisties. So motorway to get there, for which I like a big, heavy, smooth and powerful bike.
For me, the Pan is a super comfortable mile muncher with plenty of luggage capacity, that can play more or less like a sport bike when it matters
