Harley-Davidson has introduced its new Enthusiast Collection, a series of the American brand's motorcycles featuring special-edition livery created to celebrate the unique stories and special interests of riders within the Harley-Davidson community. Each design will be launched annually, available in limited quantities across a curated selection of motorcycle models. The Harley-Davidson Pan America 1250 Special G.I. is part of the Enthusiast Collection launch, as well as a Harley-Davidson Tri Glide Ultra. Th company's designers created a special Mineral Green Denim Deluxe paint just for the series, and military-inspired graphics.
The G.I. Enthusiast Collection is draped in Mineral Green Denim Deluxe paint, an all-new color created specifically for this launch, and completed with service-inspired graphics. The Pan America G.I. is available only as factory-installed for the Special variant, in limited quantities primarily for the U.S. market.
"The new Mineral Green Denim Deluxe paint pays homage to the Olive Drab paint used on Harley-Davidson WLA models," revealed Harley-Davidson Vice President of Design Brad Richards. "The tank graphic celebrates the iconic white five-point star, which was used during WWII on military vehicles."
The tank also features a stenciled 'H-D' and a location of Milwaukee, Wisconsin abbreviated, inspired from the spec tags found on government-issued military equipment. "The stenciled approach is a treatment often found on military vehicles as lettering was frequently done in the field. Here we're calling out the birthplace of the Harley-Davidson Motor Company and the original WLA model," adds Richards.
