Re: NC30 rev limit
I was indeed.Slightly off topic, but Alex were you and your VFR featured in Visors Down mag (think it was) recently? Someone shoved a 400grey feature under my face and thought I recognised the name.

I don't think they're out mate, my cdi is set at 14,500 and it hits the limiter at an indicated 14,500. My dyno print outs show this also.seriously though, does anyone know if the stock tacho is out and by what?

Re: NC30 rev limit
i like mine set to 15,500 but even set @ that, i want more rpm - im too used to 2 strokes.
but as i say, i get no problems @ all.
ive had a few standard 14,500 nc30's & they're rubbish, i have personally found that the extra bit makes a huge difference & im talking about getting off of 1 bike & getting straight on another.
i had 3 nc30's all with slightly different set ups & my 15,500rpm was the best of the bunch & the best of my lots bunch as well.
it'll be off to pdq1 in taplow, berks, in a month or so, so i guess i'll see what kind of power im running then.

Re: NC30 rev limit
I usually ride to the standard limiter on the track, but did hit 15,500 sometimes when needed which was useful (hrc cdi).
I wouldn't mess with the standard limit on a road bike.

Re: NC30 rev limit
no, i didnt set it @ 15,500 as such, thats how it is.
i spent a whole load of money on the bike on carbs, exhaust, etc, etc & after all the bits & pieces were done, the new rev limit was 15,500rpm.
i think its mainly because i fitted the UK spec speedo to the bike but that along with everythng else makes it work a treat.
in the near future i will be getting a RO cdi & will have the limit raised again to 16,000rpm - just because its there doesnt mean you have to use it (but i know i will) ha, ha!

Re: NC30 rev limit
Am sure the G Force crew measured them and found it out by 1k - i.e indicated 15.5 was really 14.5banoffee wrote:seriously though, does anyone know if the stock tacho is out and by what?

Re: NC30 rev limit
thank you - this is the real point - 15.5 is REALLY 14.5 and that's what I have it set to on the Ignitech. cheersCMSMJ1 wrote:Am sure the G Force crew measured them and found it out by 1k - i.e indicated 15.5 was really 14.5
