2025 Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Special Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Harley-Davidson for the super motard motorcycle segment, the 2025 Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Special pairs a 1252.1 cc (76.4 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 150 HP (109.5 kW) at 8,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 128.8 Nm (95 lb-ft) at 6,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 119.8 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,750 rpm) and peak power (8,750 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Pan America 1250 Special measures 258.1 kg (569 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.58 HP/kg (1.72 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,585 mm (62.4 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 21.2-liter (5.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.11 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 415 km (258 miles) between fill-ups.
