  • This fix involves a little more time, but is not at all difficult. Even if you don't change the filter, use this video to help you check it once in a while. If you've recently purchased a PC, I'd do this right after changing the oil/oil filter.
    NOTE: The plastic pieces on your PC will be much easier to work with & remove if you warm them up first with a 20 minute ride.

    Excellent video despite it being on here for many many years. Looks a lot easier than I thought it would be. Thanks

    I really enjoy your PC800 videos. I refer to them often even for just getting plastics off correctly. DONT stop making them.
    thanks

    THANKS for going through all the trouble of filming and editing. I know it isn't easy and often takes hours.

    This is invaluable to me, as a prospective PCS buyer. Both in terms of understanding the beast, but also for inspecting a bike before I buy it.

    @NHfreeenergy it monitors my charging system. Green means all systems go, which it usually shows. It mounts "in-line" on the charging system, and the light bulb sticks up through a drilled hole in the plastic, with some silicone glue to hold it in place. The PO put it on some years ago as the PC has known issues with electricity.

    Silicone spray clips and grommets makes removal a bunch easier

    I recently picked up a 1996 PC 800. Having a lot of fun with this bike. Your videos have been extremely helpful in getting to know the ins and outs of this bike. I am trying to pull the front fender and/or brake caliper covers off. Is there a trick to doing this? I don’t want to risk breaking any plastic. Thanks!

    • @PC800Fixes
      @PC800Fixes  3 года назад +1

      I never worked on the front calipers, and I sold my 96 PC years ago. Wish I knew where it ended up!
      Best of luck to you. They're great bikes. I rode mine all over the country.

    Just bought a new Honda air filter today, the price is up to $43.75!!! The K&N is only a few dollars more...less than 50.

  • @captlarry-3525
    @captlarry-3525 3 года назад +2

    Fast Forward to June 2021. I paid $45 for my air filter . Strangely, a set of rear brake shoes costs about the same thing.

    • @PC800Fixes
      @PC800Fixes  3 года назад

      Whoa! They’re 45 bucks now?? They must be made out of virgin Canadian lumber. Haha

    @ludatuner1 Thanks. I traded in my shiny PC back in August after trying to sell if for a month or more! I ended up getting a BMW R1200RT, which in my opinion is the perfect PC replacement bike. Unfortunately, I've got to figure out where everything is all over again now...

  • @robbackhouse1059
    @robbackhouse1059 8 лет назад +1

    It would be a good idea to also change the plugs now that you have all the panels off.

  • @pidjones

    I think that you will find they are JIS screws, not Phillips. Honda (most Japanese) use JIS screws. Use a JIS screwdriver and find the job so much easier.

    • @PC800Fixes
      @PC800Fixes  4 года назад

      True, true. The one in the PC toolkit is best. Not sure why I didn’t just use that one.

  • @philwarner6604
    @philwarner6604 3 года назад +2

    Now I know why the center covers on my "new" 89 PC800 do not fit together in the middle. Should be an easy fix now that I know why. BTW, are there any bibs on the carbs or intake to attach vacuum lines to balance the two carbs?

    • @PC800Fixes
      @PC800Fixes  3 года назад

      I sold my PC 10 years ago next month, and honestly can’t recall balancing the carbs. I know I did it! Just don’t remember how I attached the manometer. Good luck with the ‘new’ bike from the year I graduated college. Haha

    neat video but not one japan bike has Phillip head . They all JSI Japan industrial standard and that is why they end up toasted if you didn't know it . Looks like but different and when you use Philips the JSI top well cam out if you use to much force on it . Neat pc800 videos .

  • @giampaolosf
    @giampaolosf 8 лет назад +1

    To replace the starter motor I need to take the carbs off. After unscrewing the connecting tubes bands screws do I have additional screws/bolts (I can't see) to remove prior to pull out the carbs? Tx

    • @PC800Fixes
      @PC800Fixes  8 лет назад

      Never did that fix, and I traded my PC in on an R1200RT back in 2011. Best of luck to you!

    The better question is this, where the hell can I find replacement air filters other than k&n. I'm not interested in paying for a name, especially one attached to a filter that doesn't filter
