Colorado and do not own a PC800 but am looking to add to my collection so saw
one in the area and am now trying to get some information to make a decision if
I should get one. so yea that's about it. Right now the questions will be
directed to help me make my decision, if I do end up getting one then there will
be all sorts of questions and as I get to know it more there will be answers
too.

inmature. I just had a guy about your age asking about my bike at the mall. I
was impressed, he wanted a quiet, affordable and practical motorcycle. He even
had spikie hair and a ear ring. America, there IS hope. Just one bad note, he
thought it looked like a Helix. Helix!!! I went to a vintage bike thingie last
night and most of the guys thought my bike was cool. YES!

All I gotta say is my bright yellow PC called Ride gets comments, all good...
Some have (not having seen the left side) asked if she's new and can they get
one. NEW! *And* can they go buy one new!

Everyone loves the trunk you can haul ice and drinks in, and while they may not
have been the coolest back when they were new, the pervasion of Sport/Touring
has made them *way* more than acceptable.

I highly recommend getting one. But the better answer is are you comfortable on
it? I'm 5'4", and I have certain issues I had to deal with... namely I have to
stand it on somewhat elevated heels, and the bars had to be brought back 1.5"
with a VTX1800 riser kit. 2" would not have worked with the cables, 1" isn't
enough.

But now that I'm all figured on that, I absolutely won't give her up. I love my
Ride!
