The Gear Patrol Podcast is our weekly roundtable discussion focused on products, their stories, and the culture surrounding them.

In this episode, Editor Steve Mazzucchi talks about the all-new Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 (MSRP $17,319 to $19,999) adventure bike, which he just tested in the desert for several days. Steve also answers questions from GP followers, who asked about everything from riding dynamics to seat height.

The Pan America, which costs between $17,300 and $20,000 MSRP, is loaded with tech, and enters a segment where competition is fierce. It is also Harley’s first bike of this kind, meaning purpose-built to tackle off-road terrain as well as it does flat pavement. This isn’t the typical Harley you might picture when the brand comes to mind, and Steve, a newcomer to off-road motorcycling, thinks it’s a very good first foray.
