Harley-Davidson: The fire department rides a Pan America
PREMIERE In Kall in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia, a Harley-Davidson Pan America is in use for the first time in the world for firefighting and disaster control.
The rebuilt machine was donated by Harley-Davidson Germany after the previous service motorcycle of the local volunteer fire department was destroyed in floods in the northern Eifel region last July.
Radio system and first aid equipment
In addition to blue lights and siren, the Harley-Davidson Pan America Special got a special navigation device that allows it to communicate with other emergency services. In addition, Harley-Davidson equipped the motorcycle with a radio system, a first aid kit and a fire extinguisher.
An additional battery including a special charging system ensures the power supply of the special equipment even after long periods of idling. The tank, rear frame, rims and radiator grille of the machine were painted in the prescribed signal color.
