2019 EICMA: H-D Pan America and Bronx
Harley reveals first-ever adventure bike and upright naked offeringWhile the full specification is still under wraps, Harley-Davidson has used this year’s EICMA motorcycle show in Milan to unveil production-ready examples of its Pan America all-roads offering and its Bronx streetfighter.
The news is around two all-new liquid-cooled engines and the leap into the new markets in a bid to attract new, younger customers also sees the 116-year-old brand finally doing away with its preference to refer to its engine capacity in cubic inches.
Instead using cubic centimetres in its engine monikers, the Pan America will be powered by the all-new Revolution Max 1250 engine, while the Bronx gets the Revolution Max 975. Both a water-cooled and Harley fans and will be pleased to learn the both engines still retail the firm’s 60-degree vee angle which has been used during the last two decades.
The 1250cc offering is capable of 145hp and 122Nm of peak torque, while the 975cc version is good for 115hp and 95Nm.
Harley-Davidson is making us wait for any real detail about each bike’s specification in terms of weight and componentry – though it did say it was working with brake specialist Brembo to create a one-piece radial-mounted caliper “that combines sharp edges with softer curves designed to create a style that complements the personality of the bike.”
Stay tuned for more information on the two bikes.
