PanAm Lubricants

It connects North and South America, the Alaska ice with the world’s most southerly beer in Patagonia, all in all being some 25.750 kilometers long, not counting a short trackless stretch in the Panama jungles, where we went in 1996 to find the gruelling “Mud of No Return”. .

PanAm Oil SAE 60
Seems it never rains in Mexico … PanAm SAE60 - the official oil of the El Diablo Run 2019 on Baja California, where temperatures above 30 degrees are standard and requirements for the engine lubricants are demanding. But thanks to global warming in Europe, too, the thermometers literally point far north in summer. For our old air-cooled machines this spells significantly more strain, which has to be considered when selecting your engine oil.

PanAm Clean-Funnel
PanAm Clean-Funnel
A good funnel is a must have in any workshop when it’s time for an oil change or a refill. The annoying part of these jobs was to stow away the oil dripping funnel into a dark corner where you would find it a few months later contaminated inside-outside with dust, bugs and other debris. The PanAm funnel puts an end to this problem because it features screw-on caps at the top and bottom which can be removed for action and which keep the inside of your funnel perfectly clean during storage. The flexible spout makes it more versatile as it allows to direct the funnel tip in tight spots.

As nice as stock rigid frame saddlebags, or reproductions of them, may look, for those real long hauls they are not what you would call the ideal solution due to their limited storage room.

They mount with Army style pin-strips or two straps, ideally to our PanAm or original heavy duty luggage carriers which feature the matching holes. Made from tough cowhide leather, with three front straps and chrome buckles to close them.

PanAm Vintage I Tool Kits
PanAm Vintage I Tool Kits
After forty years in the saddles of Harley-Davidsons, on long hauls, short trips and race tracks, eventually, we have compiled a tool set, which is the must-have combination to perform routine maintenance works and on-the-road emergency repairs. Even on the PanAm Tool Kit was, basically unchanged, part of the equipment we had stashed into the saddlebags. Chain tensioning (primary and secondary), plug changes, oil change, points ignition timing, valve adjusting - for any job, which naturally occurs during long trips, there is exactly the right tool. No compromises. This also counts for quality, because every single component of this kit is a class A tool by the German manufacturers GearWrench, Stahlwille, Walter, Knipex or Felo. Admittedly, this ends up a bit more expensive but, on the other hand, this kit is a once-in-a-liftime purchase. A super heavy duty canvas roll holds all parts securely and rattle-free in place. In case of loss all single components are available separately.

PanAm Open Face Helmets
PanAm Open Face Helmets
With this helmet PanAm is celebrating an epic ride that was the starting point of the PanAm brand: they went back to the days when a bunch of intrepid riders were fighting mud, mosquitoes and torrential rain in the jungles of Panama, trying to ride the Panamericana Highway where it gets lost between alligator swamps and misty mountain ranges: in the Darien gap.
This helmet was going to be like a helmet should be. As compact as possible, at the same time safe and sound. There's people who know how to do it, and they found them. They went for the original beer-yellow, adorning the rigid Harleys way back when, and the PanAm packaging today. As an additional reminder to the origins of the PanAm brand, the stylized Panamericana Highway winds its way around the proud owner's head. A pump jack icon signifies the importance of good lubrication for those big twins carrying us over this world's highways.
You’re buying a helmet that is equally at home on the Panamericana Highway, on an Alaskan ice road or way down Tierra del Fuego on the dusty ruta 40. It wouldn't look out of place in the rue de Trèves in Brussels too, even if doesn't have an ECE homologation …
Further features:
optionally leather or fabric lined, heek and neck cushions are removable and washable, double D retention strap,

PanAm Transmission Vent Screw
PanAm Transmission Vent Screw
Transmissions need to be vented. If they don't have a vent or it's clogged, pressure builds up in the transmission housing, causing the seals to leak. On the 4-speed Big Twin models, Harley-Davidson solved the ventilation problem with a screw that had a thin blind bore the length of it, which met an equally thin cross bore in the screw head. The L-shaped bore allowed the inside of the gearbox to “breathe”. Anyone who has been riding old 4-speed Harleys for a while knows from their own experience that this breather screw doesn't stay clean for long and either gets clogged up by dirt particles or, when riding in the rain or washing, even lets water get into the inside of the gearbox.
This is not possible with the PanAm breather screw. With the help of a short nipple and a rubber hose, the original 90° bore is turned into a 180° turn, and no more dirt or water will pass through. The countersink of the screw head fits original ratchet tops from 1965-early 1979 or accessory ratchet tops. Earlier original tops had a steeper countersink angle. If you don't mind the countersink angle mismatch, you will of course be able to make use of the PanAm screw on earlier ratchet tops or on tank-shift tops.
