Sticky Resources for new PC800 owners


 

Howdy everyone,

I figured since we've had a resurgence in interest in the PC800 in the last year and many wonderful new people joining the two wheel Tupperware party, we should post up a collection of links and info that will be useful for you to find what you need quickly.

The first and most important is the "search" function that is available on the Messages tab at the Groups.IO iPCRC portal:?/g/ipcrc/messages? Look in the upper right corner.? Type in a few keywords there and you'll find all the messages related to that.? I've found a huge treasure trove of information there from 20+ years of PC800 wisdom.? If you need to go farther back in the archives than what we have here (it goes back to 2000 here), the old PC800 mailing list that started in 1994 is additionally included here:??(note: nothing going to Groups.IO is being backed up at this point.? I haven't gotten together the time to modify the PHP code on the archive site to do that and I haven't wanted to dedicate the funds to have Tim Dearborn who Leland paid to write and maintain the original code to do the work).

We have a very large files section on the Groups.IO site that collects files dating back to 2000 and perhaps earlier related to the PC:?/g/ipcrc/files? There are a *lot* of good technical documents in there that I haven't even discovered yet.

We've got a very large photos and albums section on the Groups.IO site with photos going back into the early 2000s:?/g/ipcrc/photos? It's a bit disorganized thanks to the transfer from Yahoo Groups when they shut down but there is a lot of good info in there.

We also have some old databases available here:?/g/ipcrc/database?that contain a variety of info.? I don't think anyone has done anything with the databases in about ten years though.

There is Leland's Directory of All Known Honda Pacific Coast Web Sites:??that I'm maintaining for him while he's on his final Iron Butt ride.

Beyond that, there are many PC800-related videos on YouTube?? There are many how-to videos that walk you through various maintenance procedures.? And if there isn't a video for what you want to do yet, then I suggest you make one and let us know so we can catalog it here.? Or if you request it, next time I do that maintenance task on my bike, I'll record what I do so it's available.

There also is the big list of links and information that I've built over the years:?? I've tried to capture and catalog all the good info I've seen come across the iPCRC and that I've learned the hard way in a decade of PC ownership.

We have a variety of manuals and parts files available thanks to Leland's efforts that are now available here:?? There is a PDF copy of the manual on the manual's main page which is higher resolution than the JPEGs showing up on the individual pages.? That's something I need to investigate with my website to see why the resolution has recently lowered.? It didn't used to be that bad.

There are a bunch of registries and lists related to the PC800:???

And of course there's the big PC800 ride that Leland hosts most years:?? I'm maintaining the website while Leland is away but it's still very much his ride that he leads.

Does anyone have other websites to add to the list of useful places to look for PC800 information?

Cheers,

Douglas in Monterey


 

Douglas,

Thank you for all you do for the PC800 riders world wide. You've stepped in and taken the mantle from Leland and it is great.

I just heard about the organization from a friend who sold his PC by posting an ad here. ?I’d like to sell mine as it’s either gained weight or I’ve gotten older over the 20 years I’ve owned it (it’s my second PC). ?It’s a great bike, as my profile statement says; I’ve ridden PC’s over most of the Eastern US and went back to this one after toying with Harley’s for 7 years. ?How do I post a notice? ?Thanks, Dave
