Haha! The plastic bag with the pen gave it away ;)

Sometimes lings.com (lings honda) can be cheaper on stuff if your making a bigger order and DSS don't have it in stock (as they get their special order stuff from lings)

Front calipers and discs needed a bit of attention.

Controls, after grit blasting, the clip ons revealed a nasty little surprise. Both of them were cracked right through.Now i`m not saying that they would have failed and snapped completely, but it made me think what if!

Absolutely stunning work your doing there, very impressive. Good luck with the rest of the build.
Need any used Nc30 parts? Want to fit a Ducati front end to your Nc30? If so give me a shout.

Yokes needed blasting and painting, new genuine bearings and seals were pressed in.

Very nice work! :grin:

Blasting and repainting makes a world of difference, looks new! I'm adding a blasting cabinet to my Christmas list now!

That's a great restoration job you're doing there. Keep up the good work.
