Vfr/Rvf headstocks
My Haynes manual has been lent out to a mate and now I could do with it, this in mind I thought I'd just ask here instead. Firstly I know the 2 bikes have different length headstocks but do they share the same bearing shells and bearings? Cheers Paul.
Need any used Nc30 parts? Want to fit a Ducati front end to your Nc30? If so give me a shout.

No, the NC30 has a far larger diameter stem and bearings.

FWIW when having thoughts like that I look somewhere like http://www.patternparts.net in the bearing section, although it doesn't give sizes you can compare part numbers between models.

Re: Vfr/Rvf headstocks
You know its true, so there is no problem. :D
Serious though if you ever had the luck(?) of meeting shokrabi, you'd better be keeping him out of your bathroom.
Ever seen The league of gentlemen (or League of the gentlemen - never know which way around it is)?
Remember the bit when Dave's 'wife' needs to use the bathroom and brings the taps back, thats Shokrabi.
Just ask Riley, he's had it far to often
