I have only worked on the castrol one [and ridden it].
Hollo will have more info, but the tank is tight to the cam cover and not much room anywhere.
Exhaust pipework looks interesting

Re: vfr750 engine in a nc30 frame???
this sounds like im gonna have some fun doing this one! still got to find donor bikes/parts yet!
what was it like to ride then? did you notice the extra weight? did it still have that nc30 feel but with more power?

It felt a little front heavier but being low was easy to handle at low speeds.
After riding my NC30 it was amazing to have a motor that pulled so hard and so smooth in the low and middle rev bands, but was still a small bike.
It was around 89bhp I think, but the torque was the main advantage.
