No - exactly the same function.

NC30 HRC CDI are rarer than a straight politician...

This box is just a std top speed derestrictor

Cheers, dude.

I have pictures that beg to differ! lol

well where are they then .... ?

umm, lets start front he front

450 conversion
ram air
oil cooler
how about getting the engine blueprinted and ported by someone like RLR?

i think these are most of the things the guys on here would want done to there 400,the oil cooler is easy done(depending on what way you wish it to work,oil/water easy,oil/air a little harder) the 433cc motors are well worth it (so i'm told) but you need to get someone who really knows about these bikes and has experience of them to build it. the ram air,i think it's probably best for the track as it really starts to work to fast speeds and WOT but i have heard of someone fitting it to a road bike and it got good reports.

my "wish list" but be similar
engine rebuild parts weighted and match
heads ported
RVF pistons
RVF cams
hours on the dyno to have it set up to run the TSR's and whatever filter works best
some big F off rads (ricks probably)
and one of ricks fancy pants CDI's to take advantage of the motor work and the fueling

some are easy got ,some not so easy

come on smev,what have you heard that you like the sound of and what really doesn't float your boat ?
have you anything plannedd your not telling us and are trying to keep under your hat ?

I like the idea of blueprinting the engine, but after looking at a rough price list from RLR i'm more than put off!!

Perhaps getting a spare engine and really going to town on it in the future- like the USA guys are doing. 450cc, blueprinted, ported, lightened etc. But at the end of the day the bike is nearly 20 years old! and spares/ replacements will become difficult to get hold of sometime.

Maybe just set up the current engine well on a dyno :)

What I'm not keen on is twin exhausts SP1 style - having a can on the side with the 'open' wheel seems like a step back in design to the NC24 - but thats just my opinion!

And there's nothing that I'm keeping under my hat - for now

+1 to that, to me the whole idea of having the the zorst on the left was to give the wheel on the right good clean look, sp1 style (unless is real high level) kind of spoils it, but they do sound good, and twin stacks are ment to be better for setting up

I think setting you bike up preperly will make it pritty damn quick, but you know you want the ultimate rocking horse shit... flat slide carbs!, now get searching on yahoo japan!

FCR carbs aren't rare, it's the linkages you want.

Which I'm pretty sure g-force are working on, along with carb rubbers.


The question is: will FCR's really make a difference to you and I (that aren't Rossi)?

i know it's xmas and most people are spending more of there time in shops than in garages but have you got anymore done ?

oh and do you think "Santa" is going to bring the '30 anything for Xmas ?

I haven't had a chance to do any more to the bike - atleast its sitting on its wheels - the frame is only partially done and thats the way its going to stay for the next couple of months

I've sold an old exhaust system and my minimoto so will be using that money to get odds and sods - proper chain adjuster, plugs, usual bits and bobs really!

I'm off to Afghanistan for a while so won't be able to do any more work until I return.

As far as I know 'Santa' isn't bringing it any pressies - although I do hear that there might be a nice tool box and tools heading its way!!
