Well, I'm too old to ride and maintain 3 motorcycles.
I have posted many detailed videos done during the 60K major service
on this bike. It will be sold only to a good home and owner who will continue to use and care for it the way a classic and emerging collectable deserves.
The front brake fairing not installed in this video will be mounted.
Kenwood stereo is currently in-op. Manual on PDF. New AGM battery being installed "now". Tires are just broken in. All Service Records From New !
Asking $3000 may deliver. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Beautiful motor, just wish I was in America to buy it from you. It's rare to see someone actually care about their bike this much these days. Love from the UK.
Kaze, Thank you so much. a small ( 20 foot) shipping container goes between England and California for about $2000 USD. I suggest you find some friends, buy several bike you want here, and ship them over. Don't know what the VAT situation is there coming from a non EU country.. but you would not have to pay sales tax here if you export it.
Hi Larry, I'm in Petaluma and sent you a PM.
Judging by you other comments... this is not good fit for you. It is a full fledged 602 lb motorcycle - not a scooter in any way shape or form. It wants an experience owner.
Always a fan of these models.
pretty sophisticated motorcycle under the skin. If it were fuel injected, people would be clawing each other lining up to get one. This version of the engine with hydraulic tappets and dual ignition is a cut above the NT-700V and other similar hondas.
Agreed. I appreciate most Bikes, but I could be happy with many of these older models.@@captlarry-3525
Excellent bike. The only carbureted bike I would consider buying now.
when I had bmw's with bing carbs... I really had no problems...and very easy adjustment. The problem comes when the carbs are difficult to acess. Constant velocity carbs are very reliable. Today we are seeing problems induces by ethanol.... which absorbs moisture from the air rapidly, creates gum, and it corrosive to some alloys. In comparison Aviation gas (which is mil spec) remains good over 10 year periods. So we are having our machines degraded and disabled, by crap fuel... which also gives 20% worse gas milage. So in a futile attempt to reduce emissions, we are increasing fuel use and carbon emission by 20% and causing carburation problems that result in engines running worse.. and making unneccssary emissions. There is no doubt that we can now achieve optimum mixture and minimum emissions over a wide range of temps,and altitudes using fuel injection. However there are still engines meeting EU tier 5 standard using carbs... they do offer great field serviceablity. But in America...as long as we have ethanol..they require the owner to either drain them when layed up... or keep running them and never letting the fuel get old. Regular use solves these problems... IF you can find Non Ethanol Fuel.. Use IT !
I try to keep ethanol free gas in my bikes, especially in the cold months when I might not ride as much, but one of the things like about fuel injectors and ethanol gas is you have to ride them often to keep them running well, so I try to ride as much as I possibly can! It's tough with 5 bikes tho...@@captlarry-3525
Very nice bike! Would love to own that. But Norway is far away from California....
you know I would love for you to have it.
@@captlarry-3525 What a lovely thought 🙂 Unfortunately no realism due to: 1) Currency rate US$ vs NOK is really bad. 2) On top of buying price I must pay for freight and then toll on both bike and freight. 3) I need a speedometer with km/h to get it street legal. 4) Working out how to get it safely and inexpensively to my city (Bergen) in Norway. But the thought was very nice. Would create an extra bond between us (we already have the Fisher bond). ;-)
Capt Larry, I have the same model, where did you get your parts from?
Byron, haven't needed many... depends on what it is. Airfilter came from Honda, oil filter is a Napa Gold, Tires on-line mounted by Cycle Gear, coolant hose was used from ebay. AGM battery off the shelf. I think I bought a carb overhaul kit s on ebay, some places like Partzilla have some OEM parts at very high prices... might have gotten jets there. I haven't needed fuel pump or alternator, but the choices there are either after market or used. I would have zero qualms about using an aftermarket fuel pump. Guys use larger alternators from another model honda V-twin if they need one... or aftermarket has them from cheap chinese to american. I think I would just rewind mine with heavier wire.. but mine works fine ! right now lots of these bikes are being parted out... so it is a very good time to buy and stock parts you may need in the future. In england they make a lovely set of new cooling system hoses... close to $300 but first rate. I see whole engines being sold for a few hundred bucks... and sometimes whole used(dead) bikes under $1000. So for the real long haul 20-30 more years... getting what you want now is wise. On the other hand I expect mine to go another 100,000 miles with no big mechanical difficulties. Where do you live ?
@captlarry-3525 dallas tx, I'm looking for carb rebuild kits, and fuel petcock
you can find the carb rebuild kits ( jets, gaskets and diaphram if you need it) on ebay. The only source for the little emission control diaphrams on the side will be used parts. It is a pain to remove the carbs...but a good cleaning, setting the float level correctly, and getting the idle mixture adjusted right... will probably take care of most problems. I have one intermediate jet that has been consistantly annoying...and I will probably break down and get them on the workbench this winter...and put an end to that! I was pretty agressive running carb cleaner through the carbs... doing as much as could be done without taking them apart... I think there is a simple kit available to rebuild the petcock... which I would alwayd do rather than install a Tee instead. Its a safety thing...but the tee is simple .
Interested in purchasing. PM me price and location. Northern California? Thoughts on shipping or?
I love this. No way to contact Slipclutch,but he has extracted my contact info but not replied.
@@captlarry-3525 Im still interested in the bike. How can I contact you?
Hi. Is the bike still available? I own a '96 PC800.
