Ive just posted an intro and have come here for some advice.

I performed a search but didnt find the results so apologies if it has been asked hundreds of times before.

I am hopefully collecting my RVF on Saturday. Ive been on bikes for years and intend on developing a little HRC section in my shed (although the UK spec NC30 in RWB on here is HUGELY TEMPTING ALSO) but im in Dublin in Ireland and would need to arrange collection. we'll see

Anyway,

I'm looking to swap out the NC35's carbs and replace them with the bigger NC30 ones. What, if any other mods should be performed at this time?? I will order an K&N air filter also as im assuming the larger carb will require more air. I will let the jetting be handled by a local professional on a dyno.

I am also looking for a carbon Tyga exhaust if anyone has one for sale or even the NC30 carbs alone would be great.

Any advice on the most inexpensive ways to pull as much from the little bike as possible would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

I am pretty sure that teh 35 carbs are an easier beast to set up and live with. I think i am right in saying that you will get a little more top end from using the 30 carbs.
I guess it depends on what you intend on using the bike for i.e. track - road and how much you plan on spending on it and what you are hoping to achieve?

I suppose ideally, if i could keep the NC35 carbs but upgrade the jets that would suffice. Essentially I'll be looking for a very quick and nimble road bike for weekend blasts.

Quicker exit corner speed and plenty of midrange are the goal here. I'm sourcing some SP1/SP2 calipers too as I'm a bit of a late braker and would like the added comfort of some serious stopping power.

the bike has a delimiter but i'm unsure as to whether or not it has the HRC programmable CDi. The current owner didnt mention.

Would a different jet and needle setting be a more sensible option?? If so, what type of set up do people here run?? I see a lot of RLR arrangements but they are too costly.

Thanks

NC35 carbs are superior, IMO, to NC30 carbs.

Saying that, if you are keen then I'll swap you some 30's for your 35's as I find 35 carbs run nicely on my 30.

I'll ride the bike first and make up my mind then

SP1 calipers seem to be reasonably priced too. As do the master brake master cylinders. Im hoping that a nice Tyga can comes up for sale too and i will postpone any further purchases until i have it stripped down and assess the condition.

Try to find an SP2 brake master cylinder - it has better feel than the SP1, especially on a lighter bike like the RVF. Calipers themselves are the same IIRC.

do you mean you'll make one? or have you found somewhere that's making them again?
