Hi guys
Is the gearbox of the RVF and VFR the same? Ok to swap one for the other?
And a very long shot, would bits inside a CB400 box go inside a RVF box?
Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated!

Re: RVF gearbox
RVF and VFR are not the same but are interchangeable. Only difference is the first 3 gear ratios.
The CB400 gearbox won't fit, but it might share some of the parts between the VFR and RVF.

Do you know how different the first 3 gears are? Are they shorter ot taller?
Thanks

Re: RVF gearbox
Scoops,
Get a RVF box if you can, NC30 box in RVF is really hard to get off the line, better once on move but you will loose places at start of a race.
Belive me I have been through it!!
If my motor does not sell on ebay tonight I may strip it, if you dont get sorted drop me a line.

Howya Aly, thats the thing im finding it hard to find any Nc35 bits on this Island, loads of 30s around the place, and I havnt really much time to play round either i need it back in the bike in 3 weeks!
Let me know what the craic is if you do break your engine and we will see where were at.
