I would love to HD make a sport touring PAS. Lower it 2", add an effective fairing, better windshield and it would be a great bike.

Agree. 17s, electronic windscreen, adaptive cruise, blind spot monitoring, < 630lbs. I'd have to give my RT a sideways look.

Interesting on the CVO ST. Looks like old body work, with carbon fiber bits, and a different cam for the 117.

I could see the CVO PAS, if it was more aimed at on road touring.

I think your on to something…they dropped the normal Pan America from the carryover lineup. My guess is the CVO version will be heavily biased for Sport Touring and not as dirt worthy as the Special. But who knows, it could be highly modified with lighter parts, added guards, etc. to make it more dirt worthy. It is also possible that it has a refresh in bodywork, looks, etc. that will be rolled down to the lineup next year…kind of like they are doing with the refresh to the Streetglide. I wonder if it will have a big bore kit and be more powerful? Maybe it will be bumped up to 170 HP or something too. This could be a good move…assuming they don’t screw it up with design problems.

I think the picture in the article is the old ST…I don’t believe it is the 2024. My guess is that hasn’t been leaked yet.

Agree fancy paint and chrome? Or they could deck it out with all the extra guards and whatever you bolt on from the catalogue. Then you have a $$$ that is meant to go in bad places and maybe get scratched, ect.

Maybe all the extras, but not looking a CVO?
