NC30 Engine
i am considering a nc30 project in the very near future!
what engines can be put in the place of the normal 400cc lump if i decide to change it??
i have searched on the forum and couldnt find much really
i ask this because i have a crashed damaged gsxr750 srad that could possibly be used if i can fit it in :)
but i am open to suggestions on engine options also does anyone know who supply an underseat exhaust system for a nc30
any info would be great :) cheers

Re: NC30 Engine
Howdo,
The main reason the NC30 is a special bike is the V4 400 engine in it....
Personally...what you are talking is heresy!
I have seen an RG500 motor in one though..
You cannot fit an IL4 motor in as the chassis is only 2 and a bit cylinders wide...
Underseat pipes - nobody makes them but have a look int he exhausts thread for some ideas...
Welcome to the site...am sure you'll relent and see the V4 for what it is and not change it

Re: NC30 Engine
If it was down to me, Id say, VFR 750 V4, but seem to remember clearance issues, or have seen an sv650 motor in one.

Re: NC30 Engine
I think your right, worth a look is an understatement, that would be stonking!

Re: NC30 Engine
the reason i have gone for a nc30 is becuase of the range of parts availble if it ever went wrong or if i wanted to do work on it or upgrade it.
i had a vfr400 a few years ago and loved it but had to sell it
this is another reason why i want one
wont boring the engine put strains on it??

Re: NC30 Engine
if you want a faster bike buy a faster one the amount it will cost to upgrade everythin anyway.
the nc30 is as good as its ever goin to be as a v4 400
