Brainstorm NC23
Okay NC23 guru's...now talk to me 
Need little help with a brainstorm here.Ï've been offered an NC23 '89 jap spec? A non-runner atm. History since '97 owner known. All pieces + spares are there in the package. Should I restore it to genuine mint, or just into plain and normal street bike with genuine panels or maybe into trick-track bike (need some more details what mods are common, do's and don't like front USD suspension fitments, or maybe into streetfigther that you see more often these days...? Any idea is nice, nothing is wrong. Input is welcome. And who to talk to for spares, parts, upgrade mods etc. etc.

Re: Brainstorm NC23
Graeme France swears by keeping it standard, a little fettle with suspension and keep the 18 rear for a sweet handling bike. Track it but keep the road stuff for when you sell it on and enjoy going around in circles on it.
It's not having what you want but wanting what you've got....Loud ,Proud and Modified ....

Re: Brainstorm NC23
My 23:is completely standard I weigh about 80kg and the suspension is OK. GF does a 600 shock conversion which is good value. Racetech emulators also available from GF are said to be a worthwhile. Depends on what you want to do trck or road.
