Well, if you can wait, then might I suggest you might want to consider waiting for the Pan America 975? Rumored to be introduced this year, perhaps at the 120th shindig in June, but we don't know when. And we don't know what's different about it. But it'd be a brand new bike, never reviewed before, and that might make it a more appropriate choice for a review?

 

OK, I really am having trouble with your thought process...

We have a different view of relationships. From 2014 to 2019 I put around 150K HOG miles on my bikes of which I went through 3 purchases with the same dealer including servicing (prepaid with unlimited services is a no-brainer for heavy riders). This is what I call building a relationship. Went through a number of ******* store managers but the finance, sales, and service managers are well acquainted with me).

The other trouble I am having is you want the BRAND new model year "USED" with "all the stuff added" in February. I do believe you will be waiting a bit longer than a few months.....

I am done commenting...

 

I do all my own service, between that and high turnover I am always meeting new managers. I do have a go-to dealer but they are hit-and-miss on pricing. I have about 90k miles on the 2 bikes since 2014, like I mentioned, 2 different dealers. I am not getting the bike until I hit a milestone so there will possibly used 2023 models. I prefer new though.
