I had a thing for the PC800 a while back. Then, in quick succession, I heard it referred to as "the station wagon of motorcycles" and "the bastard child of a motorcyle and a scooter". Instant buzzkill.

I also liked them for a while, I think I saw one for sale a few months ago with 120K on the clock.  Looked like it just rolled out of a dealership too.

I had one briefly, was going to make it a project, but gave up after awhile. Very, very comfortable and can't beat the built-in trunk space. Pain in the butt to work on due to all the tupperware pieces.

Congrats.

It uses the same oil filter that we use on our last gen 750's. I replaced the fuel filter and rebuilt the carbs, so if you have any questions on those, let me know.

Nice looking pc800!  I have to admit, I almost bought one when I bought my NH.  I have absolutely no regrets getting the NH, ricky but wonder what might have been.

I think everyone should have both a Nighthawk and a PC800 <G>

The NH is such a cool zip out and zoom bike...  and the PC800 ... well, it's so comfortable ...   I can tell that longer rides are going to be more fun.

Still loving BOTH my bikes.  The PC800 was to be the comfort bike for more than 1 hour rides -  and when my wife rides with me -   --but now I have the PC800 here in Kentucky and the NH in TN at my Mother's place.   So when the weather is good - I have something on 2 wheels I can enjoy. 

I don't think I'll be able to keep both into 2013  -  but I'm sure enjoying it for now.
