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

LA did mine on the 89 also and at present with about 6K on it is holding up well. He is having trouble with his computer and email at present. But when he get it fixed maybe he can give the exact instructions as how he did it. HH

I'll look at mine for brand name when I get home. I think they were from the Aerostitch catalog. I have 'em on both PCees. They were gifts and cost about $40 each (I think). They wrap-on, wrap-off quickly and easily and get plugged into a small socket exactly like the Battery Tender plug. I have a small toggle switch so I "know" when the plug is hot & when it's not. The plug wire comes out thru the gap-o-sis behind handlebar cover. They're simple, efficient and have done well for me. Of course, I do live just this side of Hades and have only used 'em a couple of times ... to dry my socks. FWIW, Ghost-2 came with heated grips that were wire wraps under the grips. For my purposes, they did not work as well nor were they as practical as the on-again, off-again heated grip wraps. DRAWBACK: I cannot use my Throttle Rocker (wrist rest) when using them. *WHIMPER, WHINE* --Ann

I need to add.... If you're thinking about getting one at the show, call down to see if STA pre-order/bring one up/reserve one for you. Last year I went, and STA had the size I was looking for, Clearview+3 but I got the last one. I was tempted to get a +5 if they had any left.. Plus last year, they shipped home my stock windshield at no charge when they get a chance, do check though. -cmc ===== Christoffer Carstanjen - 98PC800 Nebuchadnezzar AIM= christoffer67 - chat sometime? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I don't know about all the physics stuff, but I do know that a moving motorcycle can stay upright all on it's own. How about proof? 1. Go to the Motorcycle Online's video archive (http://www.motorcycle.com/mo/mcvideos/videos.html) and check out Krazy Keith Kardell "bungee skiing" behind his pilotless Sportster. 2. Did you see the special bike Keith Code set up to prove that you MUST countersteer to steer a motorcycle? He rigged up a second handlebar, attached to the frame, with duplicate controls. Next, he dared anyone to try and make it turn, while riding, without using the regular bar. No one could do it. I submit that if the bike can continue going in a straight line, upright, with a rider leaning and jerking from side to side, it could do it without his help. 3. Toys. I have a 2-wheeled RC motorcycle that can buzz along in a straight line, without falling down, with no "help" from the controller. And, one of my favorite toys as a child was the Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle. One would put the bike on a platform with a crank and flywheel mechanism, and crank like hell. This would spin the rear wheel, and when released, the bike would zoom away, with remarkable stability, even to the point of flipping over obstacles and landing right back on it's wheels, not stopping until hitting something or finally winding down. As far as the snow scooters, not much different from standing up, which most of us are already quite good at. And the little sidewalk scooters, did you ever ride one of those? It is a learned skill, much different from piloting a bicycle or motorcycle. And, a few years ago I helped my son (now 9) to learn to ride his bicycle. What was the hardest part? Starting and stopping. Steering took a little practice.

No arguments. I like the list the way it is. Rick Sequim, WA -- Visit the PC800 web page at <URL:http://www.pc800.net/> To unsubscribe from the list, send "unsubscribe pc800" in the body of a message to majordomo@.... To report problems, send mail to pc800-owner@....

You are correct, this certainly sums it up for me. I have forwarded a copy to a friend of mine who rides and a copy to a friend who always asks "Why?"

Daniel MacKay writes: [...] How long can you stay upright at an intersection before putting your foot down? Why is it easier to stay up when the wheels are turning, even a little bit? And why does motorcycle handling change with speed? If you keep a motorcycle upright at speed by unconcious balance of your body with no gyroscopic effect from the wheels, then what does your body push against in order to tilt the motorcycle into a turn? The answer is that which you are attempting to deny. Did you miss the high school physics class where one sat in a pivoting chair while holding a spinning bicycle wheel to demonstrate what is possible with a gyroscope? -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@... ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system. -- Visit the PC800 web page at <URL:http://www.pc800.net/> To unsubscribe from the list, send "unsubscribe pc800" in the body of a message to majordomo@....

As a list user on Egroups and now YahooGroups and being a yahoo member for a couple of years I have had no spam from my subscribing. I dropped AOL because of all the BS spams I got from everybody including all the porn SOB's. I rejoined for a month for free because I was going on vacation and not an hour later... bam porn emails for me and about 20 a day after that. See you later. My kids are on yahoo, my kids friends are on yahoo, my father and mother are on yahoo. So you get a little ad. Some of it I have looked into and used. Something I never did with the porn from AOL. Michael? The spam you and yours got is unfortunate. But from all the people I know that use it and have subscribed to a Yahoo Group list I have not heard of any spamming like you have experienced. ===== Later Roger R Chaska, MN '98 PC800W - Ketchup (a.k.a.

I don't have any personal experience, but are you sure you don't mean Saddlemen, instead of Saddleman. I did a Google search and Saddleman makes seat covers for cars , http://www.saddleman.com/company.html while Saddlemen is connected with Travelcade http://www.saddlemen.com/ which has been a long maker of motorcycle seats. I was going to search the Usenet's groups with deja.com, but I see they have been brought out by google, http://groups.google.com/ One post was found there that rated the seat, it was: travelcade gel seat, www.saddlemen.com you can sit on the seat all you want, stand up when you need to, they're sweet!
