Hello from France
Hello from France,
I recently purchased a used Pan America Special. It is from July 2021 and has traveled 14500 km.
It's not my first bike, I've always rode a VFR 750 model 1997 and 1994 since my 24 years
For my 51st birthday I gave myself a dream, that of riding a Harley Davidson.
I have a whole new world of motorcycling to discover with Harley.

Welcome from Spartan Country, Michigan!
I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Get a three ring binder and record all your maintenance, repairs, accessories, etc. This will be a great reminder of what was done when. And great material to pass along to the new owner should you sell and upgrade. Also know how large your fuel tank is, a rough idea of your range per tank, and record your fuel usage. I have an app called Simply Auto that I record all my fuel used. I use the odometer and use the fuel gage as reference only. I reset the odometer to zero on fill ups, and I know I can safely get 200 miles on a tank on around town riding, and upwards of 230+ on trips.

Thank you all for your welcome.
I don't speak English well so I use "google translate" I started reading discussion threads about Pan America.
I see that there are quite a few problems with the starter clutch, the ARH system which is malfunctioning as well as the alternator which is not supplying enough voltage. Hope all of this doesn't happen on my July 2021 PAS.
I love the look and character of this bike so much. Another week to wait before you can ride it. I'm like a kid before Christmas, I count the days and the nights.
The dealer must do the 16,000 km service and replace both tires.
