Does anyone have any pics of a twin sided swingarm in a nc30 i know you will all say why i will say why not
maybe a sp1 swing arm or even a mc21 gull arm will fit i don't know.

The Honda VFR400R NC30 is widely known to be one of the best handling roadbikes ever made

I can see your point, the single sider is heavy, I've mock fitted a mc21 swingarm and it will go with a few simple mods. if your gunna do do it tho you can't keep it looking like a nc, something moto2 style would work well.

There is a member on this forum has done it,
He also made a stunning titanium exhaust for it,
He's the guy that repairs the collers on the NC30 exhausts.

I remember now,it was rcv4 he used a yam exup i think swingarm.

I wouldnt believe everything on wikipedia.. that was probably written by an NC30 owner with rose tinted glasses... :whistle:

I've seen a few NC30's modded with conventional swingarms, mainly to improve tyre choice.. I believe RCV4 has one...?

Normal swing arm + tyga kit would look awesome. Tyga kit doesn't look that great with a SSS.
