Those Rc30s are common as muck, they should have bought the rarer nc30!, You know, the one in the middle'ish

curious to know what he did to make the Ducati wheels fit dave (front and rear)
great pics.

Interestingly i can take my RC to the local bike meet / watering hole and no one (really very few) actually spot it or know what it is, yet like this weekend i can rock up on the RVF400 and it gets far more attention (not always good) and people looking at it.
Not sure if its the same elsewhere or just typical of the north west bikers / power rangers.

I will ask the owner about the wheels.
The RC30 and 45 are common in the south where I ride because I have been organising summer rides for 9 years and there are around 40 RC30s and half a dozen RC45s in the group, so they are often out on the road.
There are lots of NC30s, a few are UK, but very few NC35s now that mine is sold.

The owner tells me they are Marchesini.

i know they are the marchesini (well they are actually brembo and based on the light weight marchesini wheels)
i just wondered who did the machining work to suit the rear hub and also what was required for the front to fit.

I will ask again but I think they came with the bike last year.

Great pic! I just got a HRC kitted RC30 last week myself. Came with the street parts and a few spares.

Anyone know someone with an extra kickstand, lights, and turn signal brackets? :pray: Not the easiest bike to find parts for..
