Highest mileage NC30

Post by trademe900 »

Who has the most km/miles on their NC30?

I've managed to get to 120,000km before I sold it on original motor, still running strong and power just like anything else.

Has anyone broken 200,000km?

Post your mileage of your NC30 and let's see who wins with the highest!

Also state how many motors you have gone through or what work has been done to the motor!

Service is such a vague word. It had oil changes and 1 carb balance and that was it. Replaced the plugs but I don't think it needed it anyway. Removable sponge air filter. No valve clearance adjustment either.

I think with these bikes the motors can go on way past 200,000km without motor work but it's just you are far more likely to wreck it getting your knee down on the local roundabout or something before then.

The NC30 from Hell has 76,000m on the clock, 122,000km.

The motor sounds good.

yup, did 110,000 miles on my '89 nc30, so about 170,000kms or so on the clock when i sold it to go racing.
engine felt no different to when i picked it up with 9,000 miles on it.

got a '99 RVF now with 25,000kms on it - so should keep me going for a while :-)
