NC30 CONVERSION

[Cammo]

If you're still running the standard gearing (15t front/40t rear) then change your front sprocket for a 14 tooth, acceleration is improved, best bang for buck mod there is for an nc30.

Possibley think about a 433 conversion, but i dread to think how much it'd cost to do, but dont think you'd et 75 out a that. If your that desperate for more power just buy a bigger bike, ramair will only work above 100mph, and a modern 600 would be better handling and maybe lighter aswell.
The reason most of us like 400s is because we like the bikes and accept them for what they are, ok, we'd all like a 75-80 bhp small v4 but unless you've got a massive budget and a race/ engineering team its not gonna happen.
Tho there always nitrous................................followed by a big bang!!!!!!!!!!!!

Put a vfr750 engine in it

Money would be better spent on suspension fork overhaul new springs and a nice new shock if not already done that should make it quicker . If you want a 400 to tune up reckon an fzr is a more realistic proposition with bigger gains to be had.

According to Rick Oliver by by doin the following -Cylinder heads ported and gas flowed, valve seats recut, combustion chambers modified to increase compression ration... U can gain another 10hp

But at what price? Waste of money on a roadbike in my opinion.

Enjoy it for what it is and make the most of it with smart modifications.

I agree, but:

Dont want another bike if u cant remember, try reading from the top of the page. Just wanna know how to do a ram intake as suggested

dude your attitude is fucking terrible. drop it or leave the board.

people can read. the problem is you post up the most stupid questions ever, dont seem to know which end of a screw driver to use or how to read a manual and then get pissy when people tell you what you don't want to hear.

all of this has been covered hundreds of times on this messageboard, the information is already there.

What you dont seem to realise is

1. it costs a lot of money to get very small power gains... Gforce tuning have spent aroudn 25,000 usd or something very close, maybe more on their bikes and they are now around 100hp, but still having engine failure problems.

2. once you "tune up" the bike to get past around 70hp most, if not all of these bikes become USELESS for the road, not diffiult to ride but almost impossible to ride, imagine using a tractor to do a motogp race, its like the opposite of that.
all the power is at the top end but no where to use it.

3. it requires a lot of mechanical skills and / or peopel with money and knowledge to do it (which if you had or knew you wouldnt be asking such a vague question)

4. being in a high altitdue place you will loose bhp becuase of the lack of air. many of the alternative suggestiosn given such as drop a gear on the sprockets to improve accelleration will give you more of an effect cheaper and require much less skills to do.

Your demanding to know "how to do ramair" but its not that simple. Do you even know how it works? It's like posting on a NASA message board, how do I get to the moon?

Theres a good reason RAMAIR isnt used on most road bikes. it can be overly complex, only offers gains at high speeds which most ride bikes wont do for long enough to gain.

I will assume you choose ram air as it sounds the simplest to implement onto the bike but its probably one of the most difficult to get set-up properly, and in your location and with it being a road bike will cost a lot and give the least amount of results.

If you are determined to waste money then

1. fit a smaller sprocket, this will make the bike accellerate quicker but you will loose a small amount of top end. Worth it

2. fit a big bore kit to the engine. The kits available are well documented with how to get them setup, enlarging the motor is one of the easiest and sure-fire ways to get more power out of it. It's not cheap but it will be the best.

Fuck Neo, u like picking on me mate

1) ive seen really dumb ppl on hear askin questions almer fudd wouldnt ask like wheres the choke

2) the reason i stated the R.O subject was cause i was really just wantin to know if thats correct

3) i live in jhb, where i do 180 on our normal roads, they arent little village roads like in U.K, So theres plenty of place to use power even in the region of BUSA TURBOS, which there are around here

4) I am good friends with a couple engineers and The top mechanics S.A has to offer, that do mods on our track cars and bikes, so i have the ppl to do it and for very cheap

sorry for pissing you off

HAve a pork pie on me.......no wait dont

[CMSMJ1]

Dude..

Neo is pretty much bang on.

If your mates are all top mechanics...why are you asking us? get them to read this thread (Hi Guys)

There is nothing unreasonable being said...

if you want power - get a bigger bike.
