What the weight numbers tell you

A full tank is not weightless: the 5.6 US gal (21.2 L) listed capacity works out to approximately 34.8 lb (15.8 kg) of gasoline. This is an estimate rather than a Harley-Davidson curb-weight specification.
Weight is not identical across every model year in this page. Use the year-specific section rather than assuming one figure applies to every Pan America 1250.
The calculated power-to-weight figure is 26.83 hp per 100 lb to 27.78 hp per 100 lb across years with compatible data. It shows how much engine output is available relative to the bike’s mass.
