I have only worked on the castrol one [and ridden it].

Hollo will have more info, but the tank is tight to the cam cover and not much room anywhere.

Exhaust pipework looks interesting

this sounds like im gonna have some fun doing this one! still got to find donor bikes/parts yet!
what was it like to ride then? did you notice the extra weight? did it still have that nc30 feel but with more power?

It felt a little front heavier but being low was easy to handle at low speeds.

After riding my NC30 it was amazing to have a motor that pulled so hard and so smooth in the low and middle rev bands, but was still a small bike.

It was around 89bhp I think, but the torque was the main advantage.

that would be a nice gain! 89hp up from about 60! thanks
