That's me passed, hurray, glad to be on the 400. Stuck a few pics up here and there, just need to get the rest of the fairing sorted, but it's coming along nicely.

So I have managed to get my hands on the 1989 Suzuka 8 Hour issue of Riding Sport that has a small article with the bike in it, it seems the bike is a 4 hour F3 bike (The class was split between F3 and the lower spec SP400)

Here it is:

Is it just me or does it look like the bodywork is touching the floor on the final image?

Not sure its hard to tell?

Have you go the bike yet?

I'm keen to hear about your thoughts after a track excursion.

No not yet still in japan the now. Will tell all once its over here

From what I can work out in 1989's suzuka 4 hours the team qualified 4th but finished 33rd in the race

So Drew cant seem to find a way around exporting the bike in bits as its a race bike from new and so has no paperwork so the bike will be broken down in the coming months and then shipped over to the UK. But in the mean time the CBR now has a new stable mate, not quite the same quality as the CBR but none the less a nice bike that will be treated to a full resto and if I can find the remaining engine parts will be converted to full F3 spec as I now have most of the other parts required

NC30 SP400 spec suzuka 6 hour bike, rough and requiring some work:

Is this for sale?
