Re: Show us your bike...
Beautiful job, I’m going for kind of the same look. What clip-ons did you use and how does it ride overall now?

Re: Show us your bike...
My beloved 1993 production year NC31 became some kind of a "project" for me last year.
I've teared it down to a single bolt.
![Image](https://a.d-cd.net/5c01525s-960.jpg)
First things first. So I completely repainted the frame, rims, forks etc - sanding plus powder coating
![Image](https://a.d-cd.net/6MAAAgGbKOA-960.jpg)
![Image](https://a.d-cd.net/48AAAgGbKOA-960.jpg)
The front rim - original 3" NC31, the rear one - 5" NC42 for ABS rotor![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif)
The front rim was also slightly modified for installation of front ABS rotor.
NC42 swingarm was also installed - it took some time to machine some parts, it won't fit by itself.
Fuel tank, fenders was painted in Kandy Apple Red
![Image](https://a.d-cd.net/zwAAAgIX0OA-960.jpg)
Side covers were made from scratch with carbon fiber.
![Image](https://a.d-cd.net/agAAAgHUFOA-960.jpg)
The seat was altered and gel-pad was added
![Image](https://a.d-cd.net/zYAAAgEkVOA-960.jpg)
Engine was fitted with tunable EFI on original NC42 throttle bodies. CBR1000RR COPs etc
![Image](https://a.d-cd.net/9fa54f5s-960.jpg)
The work is in progress at the moment
![Image](https://a.d-cd.net/jYAAAgEkVOA-960.jpg)
And some items for next year

Re: Show us your bike...
Amazing work and total dedication to this little underrated bike. I think, although the movement on this forum is quite slow, it would be awesome if you took some time and did a new topic about it on here, in English, so it would come up on g00gle when searchingpugnator wrote: ↑Mon Nov 12, 2018 4:48 pmMy beloved 1993 production year NC31 became some kind of a "project" for me last year.

Re: Show us your bike...
I'm working on good description in english, I have one in russian though. In spite of the fact I write a lot in english at work, I make a lot of stupid mistakes when it comes to something personal. I hope I finish it soon.theEK1 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 11, 2019 10:44 pmAmazing work and total dedication to this little underrated bike.

I read everything on drive2 and 400ccm.ru. Hopefully will do some more work on my SF, and shall be able to share progress of it here. Keep up the good work

I use this for regular VMCC runs. 27 years old so eligible for the majority of their events. It has won a centre stand since this picture. Graham
