“I bought it to see more of the country, but it ended up showing me more of myself. Every ride takes me somewhere I didn’t expect.”
The 2026 Pan America 1250 Special brings 150 HP, semi-active suspension, and Adaptive Ride Height to terrain that doesn’t make maps. Tubeless laced wheels, ride modes, and a 173 mm TFT display keep you in control wherever the road ends. With tech that adapts, brakes that grip, and lighting that leads, this is the ride that stays in it, no matter what “it” is.

Switch between 850 mm and 875 mm seat heights to fine-tune your riding position, then let available Adaptive Ride Height automatically lower the bike at stops for surer footing. The result: a fit that keeps you comfortable and in control from kickstand up to kickstand down.
A fresh fuel tank design features a two-tone stripe and inset H-D® Bar & Shield logo, with color-matched fairings across all paint options for a refined, adventure-ready look that’s unmistakably Harley-Davidson®.
LED headlights that adjust with your lean illuminate more of the road ahead, so the twists don’t catch you by surprise
Michelin™ Scorcher Adventure radials deliver confident grip from city pavement to backcountry curves, while optional tubeless laced wheels open the door to even bigger miles and rougher roads.
Pan America 1250 Special takes on dirt with long-travel suspension and optional laced wheels. The Pan America 1250 ST brings it to the street with industry-standard 17-inch wheels, street tires, and a lower stance. Both harness 150 HP of V-Twin muscle, but they do it in some pretty different ways. Watch the video to learn which one is right for you.
Harley-Davidson’s Rider Safety Enhancements is all about giving you that extra peace of mind when things get a little unpredictable. It’s a set of smart tech that steps in during tricky situations, helping the bike handle traction while you’re accelerating, braking, or slowing down. With the Cornering Rider Safety Enhancements, the bike even adjusts for cornering, keeping things smooth and steady without you having to think twice.
ABS is designed to prevent the wheels from locking under braking and helps the rider maintain control when braking in a straight-line, urgent situation.
This feature electronically applies braking effort to both wheels when the rider applies the front brake lever and, on some models when the rider applies the rear brake pedal. ELB can help many riders achieve better braking performance. It boosts braking power when needed while minimizing or stopping the linking for lighter braking or at lower speeds.
The TCS is designed to keep the rear wheel from “spinning out” when the motorcycle is accelerating in a straight line and enhances rider confidence.
DSCS is designed to reduce excessive rear-wheel slip and help prevent rear-wheel lock under powertrain-induced deceleration, which typically occurs when the rider makes an abrupt downshift gear change or quickly reduces the throttle while on wet or slippery road surfaces.
With Vehicle Hold Control (VHC), your bike’s not rolling anywhere until you’re ready to go. Perfect for hill starts or ramps, VHC keeps the brakes locked after you let go, giving you a smooth, confident launch. Just give the brake lever or pedal a quick squeeze at a stop, and VHC has you covered until you’re ready to roll. Heads up: this isn’t a parking brake replacement, but it sure makes those uphill take-offs a breeze.
TPMS alerts the rider through the information display to low or high tire air pressure. Maintaining proper tire air pressure is important both for vehicle performance and tire life.
C-ABS is a variant of ABS that takes into consideration the lean angle of a two-wheel motorcycle, or the lateral acceleration of a Trike model. The brake pressure required to limit wheel slip when cornering is typically or lower than the pressure required under straight line operation.
C-ELB takes into account the motorcycle lean angle or Trike lateral acceleration. C-ELB will alter the proportioning of brake pressure between the front and rear brakes when braking while cornering in an attempt to improve the ability of the bike to maintain the rider's intended path.
C-TCS is designed to prevent the rear wheel from excessive spinning under acceleration when going straight or cornering.
On bikes equipped with C-DSCS, the system helps keep the rear wheel from slipping or locking up when you quickly downshift or let off the throttle, especially on wet or slippery roads. When turning, it can adjust based on how much a two-wheel bike is leaning or the side-to-side motion on a Trike.
Does the same job as regular wheel lift control but with a bit more finesse. It taps into the bike’s Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) to fine-tune its control. That means more precise control when you need it most.
