Sticky Resources for new PC800 owners 4
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: https://pc800archive.douglasvanbossuyt.com/ (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: https://www.douglasvanbossuyt.com/directory-of-all-known-honda-pacific-coast-pc800-web-sites-in-the-universe/ 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 https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=pc800 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: https://www.douglasvanbossuyt.com/personal/hobbies/motorcycle/honda-pacific-coast-pc800-links-and-information/ 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: https://www.douglasvanbossuyt.com/honda-pacific-coast-pc800-manuals-and-parts-files/ 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: https://www.douglasvanbossuyt.com/honda-pacific-coast-pc800-registries-and-lists/ And of course there's the big PC800 ride that Leland hosts most years: https://www.douglasvanbossuyt.com/the-great-pacific-coast-highway-pacific-coast-motorcycle-year-2xxx-motorcycle-ride/ 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

Chains or locks - do you use one? 9
Howdy, I've been perusing the forum trying to find any discussions about any anti-theft security measures and how they have been deployed. My '96 leaves very little room to run a cable or a lock and I don't even know where I would put it. So, does anyone out there use a chain or a lock or some other security measure to deter theft? Is there a nice big thread somewhere I just haven't been able to find?

'89 PC800 For Sale 11
Hi folks, up for sale is a very nice low mileage '89 PC800 located in Olmsted, Ohio. I did a complete tear-down restoration on this bike and helping to sell it for the guy who bought it from me last fall. It's now owned by an older dude who's not online savvy and the reason for sale is it's a no-go with his wife. Message me for his number to contact them directly. Thanks! https://www.facebook.com/share/14uRefMVDK1/

Getting a new engine 8
Had the bike about a month, been doing service and getting it dialed in when the ignition pulse generator decided to fail. Of course it is a no longer available part. So I just got a couple of good compression low mileage engines off ebay and just going to swap out a whole engine as I have a lot of blowby and compression is not that good anyway. (rings are not available either) got the Tupperware off and got it up on my motorcycle lift now.

Info/advice 5
Hello All. My PC is leaking oil from the camshaft rubber seal/plug. I plan to replace the 4 seal/plugs soon. I am wondering if I can do this without removing the rocker cover? If I loosen the studs and nuts will I disturb the head gasket? What torque do I use to tighten the studs back to? I have read somewhere that there is a risk of losing valve shims. Any info on my plans would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks Eugene

Bar weights 13
Howdy all, New Pacific Coast owner here in California. Just picked up a low mileage 1998 on a whim. It’s got some cracks in the plastic but runs great. Appears to have been down more than once, lol, and is missing the handle bar weight for the right side. Just the weight itself. The piece the weight screws into is still visible inside the handlebar. Anyone have one available or know where one can be found? Thanks in advance and cheers!

So it finally happened riding to work laid down the pc on the left side going about 30 in mph. I'm looking for the left side rear view mirror the whole thing. Left side lower protector( the one that covers the crash bars. I've got a white pc800 so that plastic is grey) left step holder cover, left lower cover, left side cover, left exhaust maintenance cover, I think that's it.

Everything must go 2
OK. I’ve been lurking on this site for a long time now, but I need to get rid of EVERYTHING motorcycle related. (I’m old, broken and simply can’t ride anymore. Walking is hard enough.) I’ve got a 1994 black PC, very well ridden and it looks it but the last time someone checked it ran; a 2010 Honda NT700V in really good condition, because I bought it just before I realized I couldn’t ride any more. It has a LOT of farkles; and a 2006 Honda Reflex scooter. (Thought I was going to ride that, but I guess not.) The Reflex definitely runs, and ALL the bikes were put in running condition but then I realized I couldn’t ride them. In addition, I’ve got a sh*tload of motorcycle stuff I just want to clear out and don’t want to take to the dump. Everything from used helmets (I know, but maybe someone wants to make art out of them; unopened parts from dozens of bikes I’ve owned; tools; stuff I’m not even sure what it is. Oh, and motorcycle clothing and riding accessories. I’m a big girl so they should fit anyone. Pics are hard to come by because they are all jammed under a motorcycle port cover and it’s hard for me to get in there. I’d really like to get rid of EVERYTHING in one sale. So if you want me to try to get some pics or have questions, let me know. Make me a reasonable offer for everything and I’ll probably take you up on it. I am in Roswell, NM, so you can check out the aliens while you’re here.

Carb boot removal 5
Hi all, Now that it's cooling off, I'm back in the garage and making improvements on my '90 PC800. I rode it some over summer after work last winter, I should have replaced the carb boots when it was apart. But, life got in the way, had to move and I didn't get to it. I've got carbs off and am looking at the boots - they won't keep a seal and leak. They are super hard and stuck on the engine. Nothing shocking about that. My question: Anyone have any tricks or tips about how to get them off the engine? Sometimes I am a knucklehead and miss a super easy solution. Thanks, ds

1990 PC800 stopped running - zero, zilch, nada. Now what? 9
My 1990 PC800, 55,000+ miles, stopped dead in its tracks over a year ago. After having it trailered to a local mechanic, who has worked on it in the past, he can still not find the problem. I changed the ECM unit and still no spark. A new battery was installed and no go. I need to bring it back home and am now wondering what should I look for to get it running? - carbs? - fuel system? - wiring/cables? Suggestions/recommendation are welcomed. Worse case scenario for me would be to sell it as a salvage but I would like to get it running again. I am in Goleta, California, between Los Angeles and San Francisco. t 805-696-5749

New again to me 89 restoration 44
Long long story short, I’ve known this bike since new. A good friend of mine bought this bike new in 91 and I bought his old bike. 10 years later, I bought it off of him and drove it for the next ten years then I gave it back to him. Fast forward another 10 years and only 500 miles later, he gives it back to me. I was hoping this was going to be a quick new battery and carb clean and back on the road but it is in a lot worse shape than when I gave it to him. Needless to say, there’s a bit of restoration needing to take place. Some of the paint is chipping off so it’s going to get a full respray on the plastics keeping the original color. The choke cable is broken and the only way I found an intact one was to buy a complete set of carbs. Those will get rebuilt and balanced. New fuel filter and hoses, rebuild master cylinders and brakes, spark plugs, oil, filters, coolant, thermostat, tires, wheel refinishing, LED light replacement except for turning lights are just a few things on the list. As it gets torn down further, I’m sure the list will continue to grow. After a quick rinse when I got it home. I realized how long ago I owned this bike. I added a mirror so I could fix my hair before work. Don’t really need that any more. Half torn apart.
