Re: NC30 steering dampers
NHK dampers for RVF usage are adviced with the 120mm stroke (NHK 3000 series).Micro Monkey wrote:Not sure whether the nc30 standard body work is similarly contoured to the nc35 but mine seems to have a very eccentric bracket to push the damper outwards, away from the clocks. Pretty simple really and you could probably make something similar, quite easily to fit other make dampers. I have seen other nc30's fitted with NHK's and they use a similar bracket and are mounted the same as mine. Think mine is a 120 stroke but will check.

as anyone got a pic of the HRC setup? ive got a design in mind but would like to see a pic 1st![]()

Re: NC30 steering dampers

The crown jewl! the stator/genny conversion allows fitting of gsxr 1000 stator an jenny (pics of prototype):

Re: NC30 steering dampers
Hey Dave, I recognise that bung! Bought one from you on fleabay. Top quality bit of kit and fits a treat.
Haven't seen you selling those resovoir caps though. Have you just started making those?
