I would love someone from this forum to buy this bike & fix it. While the cosmetics may not be to some peoples taste, I'm certain the bike could be loved by someone who'll enjoy the pleasures of owning an NC30 - cos I think Ersan could have this for 25 years & will never gel with it. Most folk not only love their bike, they can't resist having more than one (me included)

Good luck with your R6 or whatever you buy next, please also trade your toolbox in too so you're not tempted to work on it.

here we go again with sly insults on my workmanship, dude if i were to buy a brand new r6. why would i tinker with its engine or throttle bodies... i wont touch any of that.

and i dont thin i would ever buy two of the same bike even if i loved it sooooo much. i just dont see the point.. why buy two of something? its just throwing money away, unless your a big bike collector/enthusiast.

Not a sly insult at all chum, it's just some friendly advice.
And from having read all 108 pages, yes - I reckon you'd still be tempted to tinker.

sounds good, but id also need to buy gasket sets which is like 100 quid anyway. accommodation in a hotel say.... 3 nights? another 100. fuel... 200? more? thats expensive for me. and after all that? how much will my bike be worth? no one will still buy it here? if anything theyle give me "a half eaten mars bar" like some people have said.....

List all your problems you believe. If your gonna cover my travel and digs then im sure guys on here (i hope) will be charitable on the spares.

whats the gaskets for?

We'll get this fucker sorted. And when its done dont mess again.

You need all them plastics off ready when i get there im coming to do the mechanics not the cosmetics,
