Hello everybody,
I traded my Switchback and Kawasaki versys for my new ride.

Its a Pan America, build 2021, first owned 2022. I got her friday. She had only made 630km (400mls) an the colour is rock river gray.

I love this bike so far, did about 350mls since I got her. Great engine, great cornering. A lower seat is ordered, I have a 30 inseam, so its a pretty high ride for me.

I am so happy I made the right choice, trading my two bikes for this one. There will be longer travels with my wife. She sits very comfortable, but we will try out some seats for her. And, I want to lower the pegs. For both of us for a even more comfy position on the bike.

Awesome motorcycle. I think, this will be a long term relationship.

Does anybody of you know about the refittings done through the dealership? Like starter clutch, electrical related things?

The following two are already done:
RCL:MY21 REV MAX IM SOFTWARE
RCL:MY21 PAN AMERICA SEAT BASE

Are there any more pending for my ride? I need her to be maximum reliable.

Thanks for having me.

Keep a eye on the lower radiator hose by the exhaust pipe and check it for proper clearance and there is several ways to address it if necessary, also maybe fit a larger amp hour battery and or switch to a lithium battery as some of us have done , plenty of searches on the fourm for any questions about concerns.

Hehe, my first Harley was a 93 Dyna Wide Glide which was leaking one drop each week out of the primary (not very much but there were drops). To prevent oil stains I got that old carpet.
My switchback after that FXDWG was bone dry as is my pan america.

Welcome from Los Angeles.

I also got the Reach Seat, as I have the same inseam as you.
Still can’t Flat Foot 🤨, but it would be so much worse w/o Adaptive Suspension.

The interesting thing is my other bikes have a supposedly higher seat height, but I flat foot them just fine, with standard seats.
I might even consider a taller seat, for one of them (to relieve the knee angle).

I sometimes wonder if the front is actually lowering, I can sense that the rear is.
