right this is the bike im thinking of buying , its an nc30 with a converted cbr 600 rr rear fairing , but it doesnt have any pilly footrests , the holes are there in the subframe but due to it being converted i dont think the nc30 ones will fit without fouling the fairings , does anyone have any idea or seen anyone to get around this ? i want to buy this bike saturday but if i cant pick the missus up from time to time i cant buy it :(

Even if the foot pegs did fit the seat unit would most likely crack over time as i doubt the pillion seat is supported correctly by the bodged subframe.

Each to their own and all that but that bike looks awfull, and a money pit i bet too. Seriously mate theres much better NC's about for sale.

i cant find any nc30's that are less then £1500 i dont wana spend close to £2000 on a 24 year old bike

i did have a look at the subframe and it was bolted on and had brackets welded on etc to support it , but i spose your right , i did put up a wanted on here but got no reply and all there is on ebay atm is projects or there even a nc30 on there for near £2500 !! lol

If you have a pillion seat fitted I think you need the pegs for mot?
