Honda Pacific Coast (PC800) Owner’s Manual

This database was originally developed by Leland Sheppard, iPCRC #72. After his passing, I took over maintenance and upkeep to keep Leland’s memory and legacy alive.

The information contained in this owner’s manual database is from the Honda Motor Co., Ltd. Owner’s Manual dated 1996, copyright Honda Motor Co., Ltd. 1995.

At the bottom of this page is the Table of Contents which links to individual pages in the manual. From the individual pages, you can page forward, backward, to the start of table of contents.

Please let me know if you have any questions or problems using this database.  Email me: Douglas Van Bossuyt
