And no mention of 'HRC' in the title, he's definitely missing a trick. Imo it's definitely the best NC30 in the history of this planetary system...

Im struggling to see how someone can spend $17000 on a NC and not even make an attempt to sort the suspension out and put some decent rubber on it, and this got in a mag :o I feel for you aussie's somethimes.

Still it has some nice annodised levers and Nobunaka rearsets which i presume are made from cheese, fucking wake up man. Oz or not, pound or dollor, the guy is living in a dream world but hey what do i know, im just a tool from england that probably doesnt even own a NC :roll:

guess the person is not really all that eager to sell....

Yeah I have seen that on Ebay many times...but gee they have high hopes. You can get an NC30 probably shipped from UK with spares for that price.

The most expensive NC30 I have seen was a AUS$10000. It was a race bike which had lots of spares including stands and tyre warmers. Pretty much set for racing with the appropriate suspension set up and supposedly the first working air ram intake system. Well looked after bike and had many spares if a crash did occur.

Yeah, that was Ian Wiltshire's bike (TW performance).

Good bike and probably was worth that money, especially because of all the titanium bits and big spares collection. The ram air was rudimentary IMO... and there are faster V4's out there. ;)

I see Ian is well known in the 400s :D. It's a shame I wasn't able to purchase it though, had no money. Seen it on the tracks a few times and the fellow who bought it crashed it once and ruined the lovely paint work :(. But I think it is still in better condition than mine haha.
