The 'N' relates to the engine capacity (bikes with something like 251 to 400cc)
(for example;'M' covers 100 to 250cc, 'P' covers the 401 to 650cc range, 'R' covers the 651 to 750+cc etc - not sure on the exact capacity each letter covers but you get the idea.....)

The 'C' is Honda's designation for road/sports bike.
'D' id for on/off road.
There are more that cover commuters & off road bikes etc.

30 is the model number Honda give it - normally with a few digits space between the preceeding version (prototypes???)

NC30 = (VFR400) 400cc enine capacity range, street/sports bike
RC35 = (VFR750) 750cc capacity (range) street/sports bike
MC21 = (NSR 250) 250cc capacity street/sports machine
RD04 = (XRV750 Africa Twin) 750cc on/off road bike
and so on......

How about Honda racing designations, such as CR110, RC174.
How are they derived, any idea?.
