Not too bad, needs a little green, it is holiday season. 😁

Seriously tho, congrats and the wait is over! 👏 I like it, haven't seen one in person but think that'd be my next choice in color.

It was a long wait as well. Thank for the tip an contact details. Things moved more quickly and the dealer was more open to call, communicating stats update after the email

Another one in the best colour. Just wish we had that riding weather hear. It’s currently struggling to get much above freezing.

Thanks!
No coatings done to the body yet. A buddy of mine who does coatings suggested we do it, but cleaning the fairings/tank is easy. It’s all the nooks/crannies that are a pain 🍻

Great looking bike Chris congratulations! Have you owned other adventure bikes like this or is the Pan America your first?

Definitely got it cleaned and got a great photo, don't think mine looked like that on showroom floor.😂

This is my first. I’ve had sport bikes most of my life but a back injury made those impossible to ride. The comfort of the ADV bikes and ability to go anywhere is what sold me on it. We have Jeeps that we like to take rock crawling, and I’ve found that to be more entertaining than going fast around a track in a sports car. I hope the same applies to the ADV bikes.

Ive only had it for a couple weeks, I’ve been through rain and a few service roads but nothing “fun” yet. And yeah I wiped it down prior to that photo 😎.

I wanted to try something slightly more offroad focused than the factory tires, but also had decent life so I installed a set of Dunlop Trailmax mission tires.

I like the appearance, any harsher of a ride or anything you like or dislike in comparison to the OEM Michelin Scorcher?

I haven’t spent much time with them but they definitely have a much stiffer sidewall than the factory tires(which you can feel over small road imperfections.) Turn in feels a bit slower/heavier with these over the factory tires but it only took a few corners to get used to. I may mess around with the tire pressures a bit tomorrow as I feel these need a bit less air with the stiffer sidewalls.
