Re: RC45 Wheel on NC35
I'll swap you for a Dymag or similar 
But on a serious note, if I decide not to do it, I am happy to grab it and send it off to you.
Keep in mind that I'm in Aus though so postage won't be cheap.
Send me through a PM if you like with a figure you would have in mind, and I'll work out if it's doable in that range once postage etc is added.

Alright well turns out the wrecker got my hopes up for no reason 
The wheel is actually off an VFR750.
Maybe this will be easier to fit?

Re: RC45 Wheel on NC35
I thought that price was waaaayyyy too good to be for an rc45 wheel!
Rick Oliver sells a kit to fit the vfr750 wheel to the nc's. You need the later 5" wide wheel to fit, the earlier ones were 5.5".
Here's one fitted to Riley's nc30:

Re: RC45 Wheel on NC35
I know, damn wreckers! Would've been wrapped for an RC45 wheel.

That's the bike it will be coming off, so I'm guessing thats the later model?
I love the look of the 5 spoke wheel. Would I still need to have a spacer for the sprockets? I'm guessing a 160 tyre would be best for this?

Yep, 1994 onwards models had the 5" wheel.
Not sure about the spacer, I know the hub needs to be modified (to take the 750 4 bolt axle?).

Re: RC45 Wheel on NC35
Yes it does. Rick Oliver sells the conversion kit as was said a few posts above.
Could anyone chime in and let me know how beneficial this actually is?
