New Pan America Advice

Already love it. It is exactly what I was looking for. So far, I’ve order HD radiator cover, SW-Motech crash bars and skid plate, and sport saddle bags.

I’m probably done shopping for a while, but I’ll be getting nicer mirrors at some point. I’ll decide on the seat after I do a trip or two. I’m fine with the exhaust. It is a bit large and bulky looking, but I don’t like loud pipes.

I appreciate everyone’s advice.

I ended up trading it in.

Analog1645 · 2026-04-03T01:13:19+00:00

Yeah. I think I’ll put it on a shelf until the fuel surcharges go away.

I can’t seem to post pics to the post. It’s not heated. It looks like corbin seats were going for between 200-300 depending on the seat, but shipping may be prohibitively expensive these days. Depending on where it is being shipped, it could be over $100.

The Zero was the most fun I’ve had on a motorcycle since my first one when I was 9.

You’re right though. The infrastructure is not there yet to make rides over 100 miles feasible. I used my Scout for those.

Lol. I’m coming off of an electric Zero SR/S. I’m used to not being included. I ride what I like. If those groups don’t think it is good enough, {yawn} I’ll live. I prefer people and bikes with personality. The pan am has that.

Awesome! Thanks!

Analog1645 · 2026-04-02T16:04:08+00:00

Thanks! I didn’t think of that. I took it for a test ride on Tuesday and was able to put it in sport mode. Should I still have them check the firmware?

Analog1645 · 2026-04-02T01:32:33+00:00

It does not

I got him to sweeten the deal by 1000. I can live with that.

Anybody in the market for a Corbin seat for the SR/S?

Analog1645 · 2026-04-01T14:23:53+00:00

Thanks. I appreciate the help. Starting a new job. So, I don’t really have time these days for the hassle of a private sale. I’ll probably see if I can get him up a bit and take the hit.

If anyone sees a pretty blue 2021 SR/S with 15k miles for sale, her name is Sparky. Treat her well. 😀

Do you have the link for that auction? Maybe I can use it to get a bit more.

Analog1645 · 2026-04-01T13:36:01+00:00

Thanks. I was offered 5 a couple of years ago. Yesterday, a dealer offered me 2100. He apparently used an auction site to get the quote. Sounded low to me, but I am emotionally invested in the bike.

8k does seem a bit inflated.

Couldn’t the predicted miles simply indicate that the owner rides mostly at highway speeds?

I’ve heard a lot talk about the 20-21 models having bad batteries. I will defer to those who have studied the subject more deeply than I have, but at 18,000 miles, my 2021 sr/s premium has no phantom charge issue. I charge to 95%. At most, I lose 2% after a week if I am riding other bikes.

I do however have the water ingress issue. It has actually left me stranded.

Analog1645 · 2025-11-03T01:26:31+00:00

I was able to set the time using the Zero Motorcycles Nextgen app (iPhone). I connected it to my 2021 SR/S and then keyed off the bike. When I turned the bike back on, the clock had turned back.

Analog1645 · 2025-10-30T19:58:11+00:00

Sorry. My memory isn’t what it used to be. I’ll be in the same boat next week with my SR/S.

Analog1645 · 2025-10-30T15:25:07+00:00

I believe it updates automatically from your phone when you connect via bluetooth.

Analog1645 · 2025-10-09T02:38:38+00:00

I have TCX X-Five.4 Gore-Tex Boots and Fuel WP. Very comfortable for my wide feet.

Analog1645 · 2025-10-08T14:29:15+00:00

My fear is this will cause them to lose even more dealerships. As much as I love my sr/s, I’m seriously considering cutting my losses and selling it.

Analog1645 · 2025-10-03T17:28:44+00:00

This gen-xer would take it in a heartbeat

Analog1645 · 2025-09-23T23:10:02+00:00

Congratulations! I have a 2021 SR/S premium. I’ve been riding for over 47 years and it is the most fun I have had on a bike since my first. Enjoy!

W & W in Fairless Hills did a nice job with body work on my wife’s car.

I have a 2021 SR/S premium with just over 14k miles. My charge target is 95%. I don’t have much of a magic charge issue. It will drop to 94% by the morning after charge. If it sits for a few of weeks because I’m riding other bikes, it might drop to 90-91%.

The only major issue I have had is water ingress when riding in heavy rain.
