Not a VFR, but stummbled across this NS400R

Post by karl BKK »

Anyone had or have one of these?
With so many strokers kicking around on Thai roads, i'm always tempted to buy something to potter around on, but why 'potter' when you could potentially fly on this little beauty http://www.mocyc.com/store/view.php?idclassified=439508

always liked them, they do sound good (in a strange kind of way) too due to being a V3. get one!

Providing it's in good condition I guess it would be quicker than a VFR400 once up in it's powerband too?

I nearly brought one a few years ago, they seem to have gone up in price since.

Some english broucheurs these.

The non JDM bike made 72hp (60 for the jdm one), they weigh about the same as the VFR too.

I don't know if it'd be quicker... the tyres are 100/110's and you can get much stickier stuff for the VFR...

Different though..

i like these, another one of those odd ball bikes that were over shadowed by the 500's. Seriously outdated chassis tho.

i just so happen to have a ns400r engine in the garge, anyone wanna know if it'll fit in a NC frame?

I've ridden one - brilliant motor!

From what I can remember it is best to remove the ATACS, the motor is a flyer ;)
