It Is A Steal at $13.5K

Take a close look at this absolutely spectacular 2023 Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Special with only 2,300 original miles.

If you want one motorcycle that can truly do just about everything, this is it.

Ride it to work. Take it to the beach. Load the bags and cross the country. Hit the back roads on Sunday. Take it down a dirt road or onto a trail. Then turn around and hammer the highway with 150 horsepower on tap.

The Pan America completely changed what people thought a Harley-Davidson could be, and this particular bike takes the concept to another level with more than $4,500 in premium accessories and upgrades already installed.

Adult-owned, professionally maintained and exceptionally clean, this motorcycle is completely set up and ready to ride.

PAN AMERICA 1250 SPECIAL PERFORMANCE

At the heart of the Pan America is Harley-Davidson's incredible Revolution Max 1250 V-Twin, producing approximately 150 horsepower.

This isn't a traditional heavyweight cruiser motor. It is a high-performance, liquid-cooled V-Twin designed to rev, accelerate and perform.

Power is delivered through a 6-speed transmission, giving the Pan America tremendous acceleration and serious highway passing power.

Even an experienced sport-bike rider can have a blast on this motorcycle.

Other major features include:

  • 1,250cc Revolution Max V-Twin

  • Approximately 150 horsepower

  • 6-speed transmission

  • Brembo braking system

  • Dual front Brembo disc brakes

  • Rear Brembo disc brake

  • 19-inch front / 17-inch rear adventure wheel setup

  • Long-travel suspension

  • Multiple electronic ride modes

  • Cruise control

  • ABS

  • Traction control

  • Advanced rider safety electronics

  • Bluetooth connectivity

  • Navigation capability

  • Approximately 5.6-gallon fuel capacity

  • Large 6.8-inch color TFT display

This is a legitimate premium adventure-touring motorcycle loaded with modern technology.

SEMI-ACTIVE SUSPENSION & ADAPTIVE RIDE HEIGHT

One of the biggest advantages of the Pan America Special is its sophisticated electronically controlled semi-active suspension.

The suspension can continuously react to factors including vehicle speed, suspension movement, acceleration, braking, lean angle, throttle input and the selected riding mode.

This bike also has the highly desirable Adaptive Ride Height system.

As the motorcycle comes to a stop, the suspension can lower the bike, making it substantially easier for the rider to get both feet securely on the ground. Once underway, the motorcycle returns to its normal operating ride height.

For a tall adventure motorcycle, this is an outstanding feature.

OVER $4,500 IN PREMIUM UPGRADES

This Pan America has already had the expensive work done.

SCREAMIN' EAGLE CARBON-FIBER EXHAUST

One of the first upgrades installed was the premium Screamin' Eagle exhaust with carbon-fiber detailing.

It gives the Revolution Max V-Twin a deeper, more aggressive exhaust note without taking away from the bike's long-distance touring capability.

It looks fantastic and sounds even better.

DENALI AUXILIARY LIGHTING SYSTEM

Up front you'll find a set of powerful DENALI auxiliary LED lights.

The bike also incorporates DENALI's accessory-control electronics underneath the seat, allowing compatible accessories to operate together and be programmed for different functions.

The lighting system is currently configured so the auxiliary lights flash when the horn is activated.

It is an impressive setup that dramatically increases the bike's presence and visibility.

DUAL DENALI HORNS

This motorcycle is also equipped with an incredibly powerful dual DENALI horn setup.

These are among the loudest motorcycle horns we've experienced and provide substantially more warning power than a conventional factory horn.

Hit the horn and you know you're going to be heard.

PREMIUM SMOKED ADJUSTABLE WINDSHIELD

A premium smoked windshield has been installed, providing additional wind protection for long-distance riding.

The windshield is adjustable, allowing the rider to tailor airflow and protection depending on riding conditions.

TOURATECH WINDSHIELD / ACCESSORY MOUNT

The bike is equipped with a Touratech mounting and stabilization system, providing additional windshield support while also creating an excellent mounting location for navigation and electronic accessories.

APPLE CARPLAY / ANDROID AUTO DISPLAY

Mounted directly in the rider's field of vision is an aftermarket Apple CarPlay / Android Auto compatible display.

Connect your phone and you've got access to navigation and other compatible smartphone functions without having to constantly handle your phone.

Combined with the factory TFT display, this bike has an impressive technology package.

TOURATECH HANDGUARDS

Heavy-duty Touratech handguards provide additional protection for the rider's hands and controls while reinforcing the bike's adventure-ready appearance.

WUNDERLICH PROTECTIVE COMPONENTS

A selection of premium Wunderlich protective components has also been installed, including protection around vulnerable braking components and other key areas of the motorcycle.

HARLEY-DAVIDSON ENGINE / SKID-PLATE PROTECTION

Underneath the motorcycle you'll find the heavy-duty Harley-Davidson engine protection / skid plate.

If you're exploring gravel roads or rough terrain, this is exactly what you want between expensive engine components and rocks, debris or other obstacles.

UPGRADED STAINLESS-STEEL FOOT PEGS

The factory setup has been upgraded with premium stainless-steel foot pegs, providing a large, secure platform whether you're seated or standing while riding off pavement.

HIGHWAY PEGS

Adjustable aluminum highway pegs have been installed, giving the rider another position to stretch out during longer rides.

For anyone planning serious touring mileage, this is a great addition.

SW-MOTECH SIDE-STAND SUPPORT

The side stand has been fitted with an SW-Motech enlarged kickstand support.

Anyone who has parked an adventure motorcycle on dirt, gravel, grass or soft pavement knows why this matters.

Instead of carrying a separate kickstand pad in your saddlebag, the enlarged support stays attached to the motorcycle.

PREMIUM HARLEY-DAVIDSON HARD LUGGAGE

Probably the most visually obvious upgrades are the premium Harley-Davidson hard luggage cases.

They're rugged, functional and removable, meaning when you arrive at your destination you can remove the bags and carry them inside.

The rear of the luggage has also been tastefully accented with American flag graphics.

This is exactly the luggage setup you'd want for cross-country touring.

HARLEY-DAVIDSON REAR LUGGAGE RACK

A Harley-Davidson rear luggage rack has been installed and is ready for additional luggage or a compatible top case.

YOSHIMURA TAIL TIDY

A Yoshimura tail tidy kit cleans up the rear of the motorcycle and gives it a much sharper, sportier appearance.

UPGRADED CONTROLS & PROTECTION

Additional upgrades include premium Harley-Davidson control components, brake-lever equipment, brake controls and rear master-cylinder protection.

HANDLEBAR RISERS

One of the most practical upgrades on the motorcycle is the handlebar riser setup.

The bars have been moved approximately 1½ inches rearward and about 2 inches higher, resulting in a more relaxed riding position and taking additional stress off the rider's shoulders, arms and upper body.

Combined with the Pan America's upright riding position, wide handlebars, comfortable seat and upgraded windshield, this motorcycle is set up to ride all day long.

ONLY 2,300 ORIGINAL MILES

This Pan America has just 2,300 original miles.

The rear tire still looks exceptionally fresh, the wheels are excellent, the fuel tank is beautiful and the motorcycle presents extremely well throughout.

It was adult-owned and professionally maintained.

The bike is about as clean as you could reasonably expect a pre-owned adventure motorcycle to be.

FULL CONDITION DISCLOSURE

There is one minor cosmetic mark on the side of one luggage case from the previous owner.

It could be professionally refinished if the new owner desired.

this motorcycle is exceptionally clean.

The:

  • Wheels are excellent

  • Fuel tank is excellent

  • Bodywork is excellent

  • Controls are excellent

  • Accessories are excellent

  • Motorcycle overall presents beautifully

WHY BUY A PAN AMERICA?

1. VERSATILITY

This may be the single most versatile Harley-Davidson ever produced.

You can commute on it Monday through Friday, hit the back roads on Saturday, take a dirt road on Sunday and then load the bags and ride across the country.

If you want one motorcycle in the garage that can do virtually everything, the Pan America is difficult to beat.

2. PERFORMANCE

With approximately 150 horsepower, this is no slow adventure bike.

It has serious acceleration and huge highway passing power.

If you're coming from sport motorcycles, there's enough performance here to keep things interesting.

3. COMFORT

The Pan America's upright seating position, wide handlebars, comfortable seat, cruise control and wind protection make it an outstanding long-distance machine.

This bike is even better thanks to the upgraded windshield and handlebar risers.

If you've spent years riding cruisers or Harley-Davidson touring motorcycles but want something lighter, faster and more athletic, this Pan America makes tremendous sense.

4. TECHNOLOGY

The Pan America Special isn't a stripped-down dirt bike with a big engine.

It's a sophisticated premium touring motorcycle.

You've got:

  • Semi-active electronic suspension

  • Adaptive Ride Height

  • Large 6.8-inch TFT display

  • Bluetooth connectivity

  • Phone integration

  • Navigation capability

  • Cruise control

  • Multiple ride modes

  • ABS

  • Traction control

  • Advanced rider safety systems

Add this motorcycle's aftermarket CarPlay / Android Auto setup and DENALI electronic accessory system and you've got an extremely well-equipped machine.

5. IT'S A HARLEY-DAVIDSON

There are some outstanding adventure motorcycles on the market from BMW, Ducati, KTM and others.

But the Pan America has an identity all its own.

For the rider who wants a powerful American V-Twin adventure motorcycle with the Harley-Davidson name on the tank, this is the bike.

HUGE VALUE

This motorcycle was approximately $28,400 as equipped, and duplicating a similarly equipped motorcycle with these upgrades represents a substantial investment.

This one already has the premium accessories installed and sorted.

With only 2,300 miles, you're getting a motorcycle that's barely been broken in without having to absorb the initial depreciation and accessory installation costs associated with buying new.

That's the smart way to buy a motorcycle like this.

    WHY BUY A PAN AMERICA?

    1. VERSATILITY

    This may be the single most versatile Harley-Davidson ever produced.

    You can commute on it Monday through Friday, hit the back roads on Saturday, take a dirt road on Sunday and then load the bags and ride across the country.

    If you want one motorcycle in the garage that can do virtually everything, the Pan America is difficult to beat.

    2. PERFORMANCE

    With approximately 150 horsepower, this is no slow adventure bike.

    It has serious acceleration and huge highway passing power.

    If you're coming from sport motorcycles, there's enough performance here to keep things interesting.

    3. COMFORT

    The Pan America's upright seating position, wide handlebars, comfortable seat, cruise control and wind protection make it an outstanding long-distance machine.

    This bike is even better thanks to the upgraded windshield and handlebar risers.

    If you've spent years riding cruisers or Harley-Davidson touring motorcycles but want something lighter, faster and more athletic, this Pan America makes tremendous sense.

    4. TECHNOLOGY

    The Pan America Special isn't a stripped-down dirt bike with a big engine.

    It's a sophisticated premium touring motorcycle.

    You've got:

    • Semi-active electronic suspension

    • Adaptive Ride Height

    • Large 6.8-inch TFT display

    • Bluetooth connectivity

    • Phone integration

    • Navigation capability

    • Cruise control

    • Multiple ride modes

    • ABS

    • Traction control

    • Advanced rider safety systems

    Add this motorcycle's aftermarket CarPlay / Android Auto setup and DENALI electronic accessory system and you've got an extremely well-equipped machine.

    5. IT'S A HARLEY-DAVIDSON

    There are some outstanding adventure motorcycles on the market from BMW, Ducati, KTM and others.

    But the Pan America has an identity all its own.

    For the rider who wants a powerful American V-Twin adventure motorcycle with the Harley-Davidson name on the tank, this is the bike.

    HUGE VALUE

    This motorcycle was approximately $28,400 as equipped, and duplicating a similarly equipped motorcycle with these upgrades represents a substantial investment.

    This one already has the premium accessories installed and sorted.

    With only 2,300 miles, you're getting a motorcycle that's barely been broken in without having to absorb the initial depreciation and accessory installation costs associated with buying new.

    That's the smart way to buy a motorcycle like this.

    THE BOTTOM LINE

    This is an exceptionally well-equipped:

    2023 Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Special

    with:

    ONLY 2,300 ORIGINAL MILES

    150 HORSEPOWER

    ADAPTIVE RIDE HEIGHT

    SEMI-ACTIVE SUSPENSION

    $4,500+ IN PREMIUM UPGRADES

    HARLEY-DAVIDSON HARD LUGGAGE

    SCREAMIN' EAGLE EXHAUST

    DENALI LIGHTING & DUAL HORNS

    CARPLAY / ANDROID AUTO

    TOURATECH COMPONENTS

    WUNDERLICH PROTECTION

    UPGRADED WINDSHIELD

    HANDLEBAR RISERS

    SW-MOTECH COMPONENTS

    YOSHIMURA TAIL TIDY

    …and much more.

    This isn't a Pan America you'll need to spend another several thousand dollars upgrading after you buy it.

    It's already done.

    Buy it, load the bags and ride.

    FINANCING – SHIPPING – TRADES

    Financing is available through Freedom Road Financial for qualified buyers.

    We can also ship this motorcycle directly to your door virtually anywhere in the country.

    Trade-ins are welcome.

    WHY SHOULD YOU BUY FROM KAPLAN? WHAT DO YOU GET?

    “You are buying from the Kaplan Cycles Family. We are not just another big auction house. We are family-owned and operated and have been buying, servicing, and selling motorcycles since 1975. You will work directly with Ken Jr., Ken Sr., and/or one of the 30+ experts on our team. We provide museum-quality, white-glove concierge service from start to finish. Every motorcycle we sell is inspected, serviced, and supported by our team, and we stand behind it after the sale. You’re not on your own — we back what we build and what we sell.

    With over 17,000 units sold and still 100% positive feedback, we are the best stress-free buying experience you can have. From the first call to delivery at your door, we will handle it all — because vintage motorcycles deserve support, and so do you.

    With every bike we curate you get:
    • museum-level inspection & preservation services
    • every machine is professionally evaluated, serviced, & rotisserie detailed
    • all critical systems are checked, adjusted, or renewed
    • you get professional setup, tuning, and delivery prep
    • done by the best experts in the industry — we ride and restore every day
    • you get post-sale phone support
    • you get white-glove, insured, always-enclosed shipping to your door anywhere in the country

    You’re buying from Kaplan Cycles at the New England Motorcycle Museum, one of the largest vintage motorcycle collections in North America. Free museum tours and tickets are included with every bike sold. With every bike you purchase, a portion of the proceeds is used to support, continue, and improve the 501(c)(3) nonprofit New England Motorcycle Museum.

    You don’t just win an auction — YOU are creating & helping to preserve motorcycle history, and you become part of our family, a Kaplan Cycles client for life.

    We do not take new clients off the street.
    We do not service bikes purchased elsewhere.
    We only take new exclusive clients who purchase a motorcycle from us.

    You get a guided purchase experience with, and from, the experts who care about the bike as much as you do. If there’s a problem, you don’t get ghosted. You call us — you will have our cell phone numbers — we will answer your call on weekends, and we will help make it right.

    Auction platforms = listing only. No support. No accountability.

    Kaplan Cycles = we stand behind what we sell.

    You are buying museum-curated provenance. That means:
    • expert evaluation
    • documented condition
    • professional presentation
    • long-term preservation mindset

    You’re not just buying a motorcycle — you’re buying a curated piece of motorcycling history.

    From the #1 family in this business — Kaplan Cycles & the New England Motorcycle Museum.
