Turn your Harley-Davidson Pan America into a streetfighter
The people at Powerbrick have developed a bolt-on kit of parts that turns any Pan America 1250 into a minimalist streetfighter.
Earlier this year, the Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 ST rolled onto the market, giving fans the chance to ride a more sporty, road-focused version of H-D’s top-spec adventure bike.
With revised wheel sizes and tyres, suspension settings, and cut-back bodywork, the ST straight away looks like a meaner, leaner, and more serious bike. But if it’s styling is already a little too bland for you, and if you’re in the camp of fans that think that Harley’s design team didn’t go far enough; allow me to introduce the Powerbrick, a a Dutch company offering a range of customisation kits - and it’s latest is aimed at the Pan America.
The kit is said to be completely plug-and-play, meaning you can pick up the lot, or just certain elements of it, and fit the parts to your bike in the comfort of your own garage.
The package of parts includes a front-end kit, to delete the windscreen and slim down the bodywork, and a Samco coolant hose upgrade - because who doesn’t love a bit of Samco pipework? The chunkier (read ‘more expensive) upgrades in the kit come in the shape of some lovely Rotobox Bullet carbon wheels and a completely new sub-frame to tidy up the rear end of the bike.
The subframe can be configured in several ways, with either one, two, or no silencers mounted to it and can be requested with or without a pre-fitted Alcantara seat. You can even specify what colour you want the brake lines, with black, carbon, and orange options available.
Now, before you go and start stripping your Pan Am’ in preparation for ordering a kit, there is a catch - the price! Altogether, the entire streetfighter kit would set you back €9,445, which when we convert that into Pounds Sterling is… a lot! You could, of course, just opt for one or two parts, but really to get the full effect of the Powerbrick makeover, you’re going to have to sell a kidney, and I hear they are fairly important.
You can check out the kit for the H-D Pan America (and a number of other bikes) on the official website.
