Bought your seat and rode to Seattle WA and a lot of
places in between. This is the best improvement I have put on the bike. 500 to
600 mile days were no problem and the price is just right. 65 years old and
still riding.

Hello,
I just wanted to drop a quick note concerning the seat you provided for my Road
Star. I've been on a couple fairly long rides since receiving it and my rear end
is very happy now. I don't get that numb feeling after the first 50 miles. You
have a very happy customer. I'll spread the word about Pacific Coast Star to all
who are looking for an alternative to $800 seats.

for my '08 v-star 1100 through Ebensburg Yamaha recently. I just got my bike
back after having them, and a Hypercharger put on. Let me just say "HELL
YEAH!!!" I can't believe the difference in my bike. It looks different, and it
sounds freakin' awesome. I have been getting all kinds of compliments on the the
way it looks and sounds. I just wanted to let you guys know you defiantly have
one satisfied customer who will continue to purchase products through you. Keep
up the great work!

I received the potato chip seat as a gift and it arrived today. I CANNOT
BELIEVE what a huge difference this seat makes not only in the looks, but also
in the comfort. I am actually sitting IN the bike instead of on top of it. The
seat adds a whole new level of comfort and customization. You guys ROCK and
trust me.....it was worth the wait.

Well... I received the new seat on Tuesday, during a rather intense
rain storm - With life as a grown up interfering with my druthers, I wasn't able to go for
a long ride until today. With my butt planted firmly on my new seat (and my Sweetie off to film
school) I made the dash to Cannon Beach and back (250+ miles) without trouble--
Damn nice seat guys! Thanks (oh and expect some referrals from me)

Just received my new potato chip seat last week and
don’t ever let anyone tell you different – potato chips ARE good for
your butt!!! Together with the PCS rear lowering kit, my bike is slammed to
the ground. The seat has totally changed the attitude and appearance of my
Star and the ride and build quality of the seat is superb, not to mention
the fantastic price. Have patience once you place your order and rest
assured it is worth the wait. Don’t wait, however, any longer… if you’re
thinking about a new seat for your Star, order it from PCS!!!

I apologize that I don't remember who I talked to when I ordered
the potato chip seat for my wife's 1100 v star but he talked to me for a while
and answered all my questions, Thank You! The seat is perfect and it really
helps my wife touch the ground better, she is only 5' tall so this helps the
confidence allot! I will be returning the core or old seat, please keep up the
quality work and service.

I purchased the Monster Package Full Kit 1, 10.6 to 1 Compression Pistons, 39 mm
Flat Side Keihin carbs, Monster pipes, etc. All I can say is WHEW and HOLD ON!
The horse power doubled. My dyno sheet says it all. But the proof is in the
throttle. If you're thinking about buying another bike, DON'T. After
everything got dialed in the results have been incredible. Heads are turning
all the time when they hear me coming and watch me go bye bye!
I also ordered new custom wheels and tires, 18 x 5 rear and 19 front. I can't
wait to get other must haves, tank, rake kit etc from PCS. The bike is HOT! I
get the once over from all the custom chopper and drag bike owners. Harley
owners eat my dust!! It's all true...BELIEVE IT.....the guys at PCS are top
shelf!

When I bought my V-Star last year the one thing that really
stood out at me was how high the rear suspension sat. When the bike was on its
side stand you could actually see the tread on the top of the rear tire from the
side...far too high for my approval! The price of the lowering kit almost
seemed too cheap to be good but after reading all the positive reviews I went
ahead and ordered one. Wow, what an amazing difference it makes! The bike sits
like I always thought it should and looks awesome. The kit was very easy to
install, took me about 25 minutes. The ride is just as comfortable as before.
Hats off to PCS for making a great product at a great price!

I did a lot of research on seats and couldn't believe how expensive they can be,
but then I came across the PCS website, read the testimonials, the unbeatable
return policy (return after a week with no questions asked) not to mention the
LOW PRICE and just had to try purchasing a seat from them. I opted for the
potato chip seat and lowering kit, I now know what people mean by riding in the
bike as oppose to on top of the bike, definitely more control and stability.
Thanks guys for making affordable custom seats. I already have in mind what I
will be purchasing in the future from you guys.

I'm going to take it to my local Yamaha dealer and show the guys there. They saw
it on your web site and now then can see the real thing!
Hope to do business again, Don.

I can't express
how happy I am about how our project turned out. I took out my bike
yesterday and while I was fueling it up a guy next to me started
complementing the workmanship and looks of my bike.
When I stared this
venture back in September I was only going to get a chip in my paint job
repaired but it took on a life of its own and began its journey to what it
is today. I know I made a few wrong turns by dealing with (XXX) because I
just did not know any better but I kept looking at your web site and took
the chance that I could deal with your company and that was the best
decision I could have ever made. I appreciate all the hard work and effort
that you gentlemen put into your business and your ethics. I know that when
I needed your creative vision or support during the build that I could turn
to PCS and you were there.
I will ride my
bike with pride and wear my PCS tee shirts as a testament of your company's
great products and support system. Someday I would like to bring out my bike
and meet you guys face to face and shake your hands and tell you that PCS
is the greatest.
I sincerely wish
you the best and can see by your actions that your company will grow by
leaps and bounds. I will be here to sing your praises and support PCS as
best I can.

Well, it all started a few years ago when I first bought my bike. I was totally in the dark about just how much was available for aftermarket accessories. That was until I found PCS's website and spent hours drooling over the custom bikes on their website. Over time I was able to make one of my own to include their chip seat, polished rotor, front and rear fenders, stretched tank, and their
Monster Pipe. I couldn't have done it without the always available help and reassurance of both Cary and Greg!! I can't count number of times we had talked and the advice was much appreciated!! My highlight was when I had the opportunity to meet them at a bike show in Las Vegas and to see their work in person. You couldn't ask for two nicer guys to do business with. They have always exceeded my expectations. Keep up the great work and I hope to meet up with you guys again soon!!

Bought my bike new and have put almost 18,000 miles on it in the last 2 years. The first two weeks were the most fun until this last week. I ordered a new Progressive Rear Spring from PCS and installed it last weekend. Words can't convey how much nicer my bike handles and rides. My wife who rides on the back pad (bun cruncher) says it's the BEST money I've spent on my bike. I've tried a few bikes here with the 1,000 pound springs on them and I'll take this one ANY day of the week. Very soft yet totally controlled ride with or without a passenger. I've tried to bottom out and have yet to get that job done. I've also not been able to get the nerve up high enough to scrape my floorboards like I could before. No squat in the corners it just plain flat GOES !! Thanks again PCS for a great product and super service.

Hi Cary, Greg, Potential customers,
Got my Monster Pro Pipe and lowering kit the other day, (shipping took awhile but apparently pipes were out of stock, no biggie) and wow, that's all I can say. This pipe totally makes my bike feel brand new, plenty of new found power and a sound that is definitely the envy of all the metric riders around my neighborhood! Installed the pipe and lowering kit myself took less than an afternoon with out too much hassle. Now the bike LOOKS and SOUNDS phenomenal! I will be doing more business with PCS in the future.

Installed the "Monster Kit" myself with a little help over the phone from Greg. Everything was straight forward & fit just right. I was very satisfied with the performance gains. This bike hauls now especially in mid to top end, Now that there actually is a top end. I am impressed with the customer service, it can be rather difficult to get parts ordered over the phone to actually make there way to Canada. Greg also hooked me up with a back rim & 200mm tire, which fits the look of my bike really well. Thanks Guys.

Never mind seats, let’s talk performance. The "Monster Kit" rocks. You won't believe the gains. I was able to install all of the parts myself with a little coaching over the phone fro Greg & referencing the service manual. I had the Yamaha dealership dial in the carbs. All I can say is wow, hang on & try not to smile to hard.

Recently purchased the "regular" seat. Much better than the factory seat. Flat level seating verses the butt numbing hump of the factory seat. Plus really finishes out the look of a great low, long, and lean ride. Great job guys.... with the great Texas weather I spend alot of time in the saddle.

My bike is already slammed to the ground
and your
Monster Pro Pipes are unbelievable. I have had 4 friends who are H-D salesmen who say that if they didn't know better they would think they were listening to "the best sounding Harley-Davidson they have ever heard".
Also, I have been riding Harley's for 43 years - I have never been more pleased with a bike than my Yamaha.

Just wanted you to know we got the install of the pipe all finished along with an air kit and carb jets and we are VERY happy. Bike runs GREAT and for all the hype, the pipe isn't that damn loud. We had Cobra slip-ons installed on stock head pipes before, and THEY were LOUD. Monster Pro is VERY mellow going down the road and the torque differences are incredible. When she does drop down a gear and hammers on it, it sounds like an angry hornet, VERY cool.
We stopped at the local Yamaha dealer and a guy came out and got to talking about the pipes. Before long every salesman there was out asking about it.
Thanks for a great product.
Art and Michelle Armfield
I heard from a friend about PCS and I thought I would check it out. After seeing the black monster pro pipes I couldn't stop thinking how they would look on my bike. I looked everywhere at different black pipes and nothing compared. I finally purchased them. I received them in about a week or so and when I installed them (I'm a first timer), the directions were very specific and went on without a hitch. After everything was put together the moment of truth was there. I expected to hear a sound that was a little better than before and then I started it and a prehistoric monster was born. These pipes made my bike a top fuel dragster. I could not be more pleased with my purchase and plan on returning to PCS for future purchases. Everyone asks me about my bike and now the elderly hate me... this makes me so happy. Thanks PCS

You know...When I got the Roadstar, I rode it like everyone else and said to myself, what the hell is up with that seat?!? And, why are the handlebars SO far forward? I'm 6' tall and not a small dude by anyone's measure. I got wind of PCS and had 'em put on the Chip. My God. What a difference. Lower, better control, better look, you name it.
I've thrown a bunch of chrome on the bike and have finally just dropped off the bike at their shop for new bars, braided lines, chromage and a few other things. They need to keep my scooter for a few weeks and you know what, as bad as I'm jonesin' to have it back already (just dropped it off last night), I don't have a problem with them hanging on to it. I know it's in good hands. These guys gave me a good price and have always given me great service with a handshake.
Highly recommended to all, no reservations. You just don't find people like this too often, let alone in the automotive/cycling industry. Give 'em support and business guys, they got it comin'.
Ride well bros.

After looking around trying to find lowering kits for my bike I checked out the Swedish sight www.yamahacustomclub.se and found that a guy had ordered a lowering kit from PCS. The price was right so I ordered a kit. 10 day's later the mail came, and last Thursday I entered the garage and replaced the "dogbones". I can't use words to tell how surprised I got when I saw the result! The whole bike changed before my eyes and it got "complete". With the dragbarhandle, pullback raisers, supertrapp exhaust system (modified), the bike went from ‘almost finished’ to ‘finished’. The comments from other biker's was: That's a nice bike!! and, eye's almost popped out. Thank You for fast shipping and a price that's right and most important, a product that really makes my bike look the way I want. Best regards from Sweden!

Went down to pcs, and got the slam deal (lowering kit, potato chip seat)!!!!!!!!!. The kit slammed the seat height down a couple inches (about 5) which was perfect for me. I’m glad I chose the pcs lowering kit and the seat looks and feels great.
The custom bikes they got on the site looked even better in the shop! thx pcs!!!

WOW.... I ordered the forward controls on Monday, and they arrived Friday, AWESOME. It took a little over an hour to remove the old set, put the new forward controls on, and have them adjusted. Installation was a breeze, adjusting them to fit me took the longest but that is personal preference. They look GREAT, the lines flow with the bike, and they look and feel sturdier than the originals. They were about a $100 dollars less than anybody else I found. I can't even describe how much more comfortable it is moving my feet 4 inches forward. I makes me feel like I'm more one with my bike.
Thanks Pacific Coast Star.

I just want to start off and say that PCS customer service is excellent. I had a miscommunication and my seat did not get ordered when they said it did. Cary wrote me an e-mail and we had it straightened out in now time. Not too many companies like to take the blame but he did. Anyway the seat has been on the bike for 2 years and 20,000 miles all I can say is awesome!!!!!!!!!!! I can ride for hours and with the OEM after about 100 miles I was sore, and you cannot beat the price. I would highly recommend the seat to any one. I got the Original.

I just installed the Monster Pro Pipes in place of Jardine Rumblers on my 1100. I love the pipes. Sound is much deeper at idle and at speed. Two friends have 1100's - 1 with Cobra, the other HK - both full pipes. The PCS pipes sound is deeper than both at idle and at speed. When you factor in the performance gains you can FEEL (especially with an Air kit), you can't go wrong with the pipes.
Thanks PCS for another great product and your usual great service.

The bike looks GREAT sits 22 3/8" ground to seat standing up, get plenty of compliments THANKS. Give out your wed address to all that ask, highly recommended. Nice doing business with you both

Hey Greg,
Just rode home last night with your potato chip seat on my wife's ride. After scolding me for taking her new bike out without her, she couldn't get over how much better the new seat looked. She starts her MSF course tomorrow, so she'll have to wait 'til this weekend to see how great it FEELS, too. Next time I'm by (stretch tank?), I'll have to get your autographs. You guys are gonna be a BIG hit!
Thanks again,

Thank you to Pacific Coast Star for the professional and prompt service when
I order a pair of Samson Rip Saw for my Bike. They were sent the next day after
my order and arrived in Alaska within 4 days. They look and sound great, just
what I envisioned Thanks again and I look forward to doing business with you in
the future.

Thanks, guys, for the quick email reply, the fast service, and a great
product. Got the new 4-way lowering kit and installed it on V-Star 1100
Silverado in about 30 minutes (including coffee). Bike looks great, and rides
better in my opinion (did a little 6-hour run after installation)! Already
looking at the list for more products from PCS! GREAT JOB! I'm sending other
guys your way!

I just had to drop a not to say what an exceptional product you folks have. I
started out by purchasing your lowering kit for my V Star 1100 Classic, and man,
what a huge difference it made. I then had to purchase your Potato Chip seat and
what an even bigger difference that made. It gave my bike the exact look I as
looking for. I placed my order for the seat on a Sunday evening and had my new
seat on my bike by Thursday afternoon. I couldn't be happier. And I forgot to
mention that the lowering kit took me a total of 45 minutes to install. Thanks
again for making my bike the bike I had always imagined.

Just wanted to let you guys know I love the potato chip seat. I was surprised
how much more comfortable it was over the stock setup. That with my pcs
lowering
kit really gave my bike the look I was after. Just ordered a new fender and tank
from you guys and can't wait to get them so they can go out for paint. Still
deciding on the style rear fender I will purchase from you. Keep up the good
work. You guys blow allot of the other vendors out of the water. Ride on

seat from PCS soon. The bike looks and rides great, I am waiting for my new

I bought the lowering kit. Installed it in a 1/2 hr. Love it.I can slam it
when I ride solo and when the misses wants to go it takes 3-5 minutes to put it
back to stock setting. I'm gonna get the original seat here pretty quick. Thanks

Hi Carey and Gregg,
I just wanted to say that the Chip seat is awesome! It gives the bike a much
more custom look, the way it follows the frame and fender lines. Of course,
the
lowering kit adds to the look as well. Together, they make the bike look and
feel low, lean, and mean. The stock seat is in route to you guys. Thanks again.

easy. It took about an hour and half. Great customer service! Greg had every
answer and was very willing to help in any way he could. Received the core
refund check in record time! Very pleased and will recommend you guys to as many
bikers as I can. I have already had allot of comments on the seat and the
lowering kit. Great job!!
Thanks so much

Where to start? I initially ordered the Ultimate Slam kit and an AIS kit in
February, and had them installed the day I got them - WOW what a difference! I
swear I sit 4 inches lower than stock. (of course I had to shovel snow to get
the bike into the garage from the shed, so I couldn't ride it yet - arghhhh!)
Then I decided spring was a ways off and went ahead and ordered the air cleaner
and had Greg and Cary Chrome it for me as well.
The bike is now together, the snow is gone (almost) and I've had her out on the
road again. I can't believe the difference in the feel of riding now with the
chip seat and lowering kit. And the look of that DPM air cleaner is fantastic!
Thanks again guys for your wonderful and fast service, as well as a great
product!

I was skeptical at first -- how can a seat which cost a fraction of the
competition's be as good as the competition -- I said NO WAY possible! That was
until I sat down on one of your seats. I immediately said YES WAY possible! All
I can say is that PCS may not have the brand name of Corbin or Mustang or LePera
and all those other brands - remember this, let your butt do the judging and you
will soon realize that the PCS seat is as good as any of the others mentioned
(plus you save mucho $$$ for the chrome goodies).
The cool thing about the guys is that they know how to wrench and they know
their Yamahas. For me it was worth the 200+ miles round trip to get there and
back. The advice and work (fixed most(?)of the things the dealer screwed up on)
they did for me was worth my time. In fact, I hope to see you guys soon. By the
way, PCS sells more than just seats -- this website does not do justice for all
the other goodies they sell. SoCal riders, make the trip to Dana Point and do
yourself and your bike a favor. I'm sure glad I did.

Hey guys, received the
ultimate slam package today and installed the seat and
lowering kit in 1 hour (by myself). The seat fits me like a glove and really
does change the appearance of the bike for the better. The lowering kit is
awesome very easy to install and adjust the best thing is if I get tired of
riding LOW I can adjust it up a bit for a different look all together. You guys
have been a great pleasure to work with and will continue to do business with
you and tell others about you. Thanks again for your knowledge and professional
attitude.

The "Original Seat" is AWESOME. (Like everyone else has stated).
I have the seat rail on my bike and I just have to say that this seat is THE
BEST match for this Seat Rail. The curves and match up are exactly the same.
Better than stock. The Corbin Boulevard seat does not work at all.
I just road 600 miles in the past 2 days and I have to say my butt is not aching
at all!
Cary and Company are great to work with.

Mt. Baldy & A Coastal Sunset Cruz-z-z!
Early one July morning, the San Diego Star Club met for a group ride up to Mt.
Baldy. It's about a 300 mile round trip if you follow the coast line back.
First, all the members had to gather round my bike and comment about how way
cool and/or wicked the 'Warrior' looked. And, how did I lower it and where did
that seat come from? I pointed to my Pacific Coast Star hat and shared the web
site address with them.
The ride was a combination of freeway speed runs and mountain twisties in 105
degree heat. My seat stayed cool and comfortable while the bike handled great!
The long coast line cruise was awesome during a perfect sunset. What a way to
experience a cool bike set up and a fun ride...
Readers; check out my bike picture on the lowering kits page! It's not hard to
find. :~)
Guys; these are some good sites for sharing info and stuff. Join ABATE and help
preserve our right to ride free and safe!
Your stuff is really great! Thanx...

they deliver a great product. The factory seat was a back killing, butt breaking
nightmare. Pacific Coast Star really delivered everything they said they would
with there ORIGINAL seat. I only get out of the saddle if I want to now .Thanks
guys, I really enjoy this scooter again.

Had Greg and Cary custom fit my seat because I was close enough to take it to
them and they lowered my ride 2 1/4" for my while I waited. The best
testimony I can give is 12K on the bike after the mods and not a sore butt to be
found. I will be getting my Midnight Star next week and will have it lowered and
the seat cut down ASAP. These guys are the best and their work is too.

Wanted one of your seats and finally decided to try the "potato
chip". It takes a while to get used to the ride (as good or better than
stock), but I really like the look it gives the Classic. If you want the stock
width, go with the "original". If you want a good feel and a great
look, get the "chip". This one modification made the biggest
difference in both the comfort and looks of my ride.

I shopped the entire market and found the PCS Original to be the best value
and had lots of good testimonial feedbacks about the seat and the excellent
service. I agree Cary and Greg are really interested in customer satisfaction. I
was fortunate and had a great ride to their shop to get the seat. While there
and recognizing these guys cared about me and answered my many questions, I
bought a lowering kit also. Both the Original and the lowering kit make the bike
a lot more balanced and after about 500 miles of riding, the seat is much better
than the stock one. I expect it to get better as time passes. I am over 60 years
old and really needed this to make my riding more enjoyable.
Cary and Greg thanks a million.
Sincerely, Turbodave

Anyone interested in lowering the RoadStar should look into the Pacific Coast
Star lowering kit. Excellent quality; simple installation (and I'm no wrench --
but I'm starting to feel like one). Took about 75 minutes from start to finish.
Definitely improved the ride and the look. Make sure you have a standard and a
stubby 17mm wrench, a 17mm socket, and a universal joint adapter for that one
hard to reach bolt at the bottom of the relay arm. Take my word for it (from
someone who didn't want to grind a part to do the flip --which I know is free),
the PCS lowering kit is worth the price. Works great with their Potato Chip
seat. BTW, I don't work for 'em and I don't make any $$$ from 'em.

NO MORE GUMMI BEARS FOR ME! Just back from 1265 mile trip to Myrtle Beach,
including a little jaunt into North Carolina. The potato chip is better than I
had even hoped. NO tailbone pain! Feels good, looks good. It sits me a couple
inches lower than stock, and with the rear lowering kit and 2" risers on
the bars, I've got the perfect kinda laid-back driving position for me. The ONLY
complaint I have is that it took almost a month to get the seat. You might want
to ask how long it'll take when you are ordering it (I didn't) so you are not
waiting impatiently. Plan ahead. I think you'll find it's worth the wait!!

My wife hates the PCS original seat! Maybe that is because it is on my bike
and makes me want ride ALOT more. With the PCS seat I look at fuel stops as a
nuisance not a break for my derrier. My wife might hate it, but I LOVE it and my
kid loves the comfort of the PCS pillion over the stock! Great job from a couple
of great guys.

I tried out my "original" seat today for the first time. I rode 254
miles, and I have to say it is the best $80. I have spent on my bike. I butt
didn't get numb and tingling sensation I normally get from the stock seat. One
of my friends had to try it and he is ordering one tomorrow. Customer service
was great. I even canceled one order for a bike I sold and they didn't fuss one
bit. Great guys to work with

Finally got the chance to take a ride with the new potato chip seat on my
Classic. What a difference! Love the way you feel a part of the bike instead of
riding on top of it! Just a short ride but the seat felt really comfortable. Craftsmanship
is top quality. Seat really looks good on the bike. Your prices are so
reasonable too. Thanks for offering such a good seat for a great price.
I returned my stock seat the day I received the potato chip. I just knew I'd
love it even before taking a ride.
Keep up the good work! I'd recommend the PCS seat to everyone.

Cary and Greg customized my seat to fit me better and support my back. As an
Orthopedic Surgeon, I can recommend this seat shaping to ease the back. It is
much more comfortable now due to improved ergonomics. That same night they
lowered the back of my bike with their "special" kit. With the new
seat and the lowered wheel, the bike definitely handles better. Seems there is
more traction on turns due to lower center of gravity. This metric bike is
looking more like an expensive Harley every time I go to Pacific Coast!!!!!

We have only done a few short rides, but she is much happier. Now we're both
