    Wow! and on your "barn" find.

    I really like the Honda Pacific Coast. There are two that I know of riding around here in the Anchorage area, but not as nice as yours.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    Very nice Dave, and congratulations, that is going to turn out to be a fine ride. For some reason they weren't all that popular back then, but that doesn't stop it from being a really nice motorcycle. Keep us updated if you would.

    Good job Dave. I have never met a Oacific Coast rider who didn't have a big smile on his face. I always thought they were a great meld between a scooter and a motorcycle. And as I remember they get great mileage.

    That's great find Dave, but I think that since it is a Pacific coast. It might actually have 100547 miles.

    You know if I had not been tracking this for years
    I may agree, the ones you see out there all have
    high milage they were a popular commuter bike
    when they took off all the body parts you could see
    all the factory markings had not been touched.
    I think I will ride it to Yosemite Saturday and see if it
    still remembers it's first ride there.

    Ah, the PC, reputed to be the world's most boring motorcycle. Also, one of the best bikes Honda ever made and was never truly appreciated by the consumers. Interestingly enough, Honda is now making an updated version in the guise of the NC700. Congrats! Great find.

    My last bike was the Honda NC700 with autoshift. I loved it an would still be riding it if my knees would allow.

    Enjoy your barn find!

    I owned a 1989 PC. Drove it for many years. A really great, trouble free bike that was way ahead of its time. Fantastic find!
