Hi all my name is Chad & if you have not seen me in the intro section, ill tell you abit about me now I have been into biking for many years & have lusted after the RC30 since a boy as thay had one in my local bike shop, that love afair turned to the more afordable NC30 which i did have aprox 4 yrs ago for afew weeks till i decided to get married & promply sold it in parts for the £££. I have had many bikes in the last few years but have just bought an 89 NC30 in a fairly ruff state. So the MISSION, (well i dont like to be off the road for to long & i probably could have just give the bike a spring clean & tune up & she would have been ok....ish) but iv decided to chuck out all the knackard parts, flee bay wots good & wot i dont want & buy in new parts that i do want, build it back up & then spray her by 24/4/09 as thats the day im off the MCN Skegness weekender. Not to bore too many peaple with wot iam doing, but i thought id post my progress on here as i go & if i get stuck or any ov you guys have any feedback on wot im doing, then you may find me crying out for advice.

Very loud is good spike i have a neigbour with a blackbird that has microns, we sort ov have a thing where we wake each other up by motorbike alarm clock, lol. Iv already got the Tyga steps on, orderd a Tyga rear end with Gavin today, so hopefully give me more to start on this weekend. Either l8r this week or next week ill be ordering the Suzuka front end with standard lowers, just to be alittle different. The room your looking @ in the picks was my pool room, iv just sold the pool table to fund the bike so is now a garage & once ready to spray it will be a spray booth, lol. Going for all black fairing with little bits ov red here & there, disc rotos, calipers,wheel strips,screen stay & filler cap. Thoughts ??

my thoughts are :

NO to the red screen brace & fuel cap

BUT re-powdercoat the spring red & get some red samco hoses

Hi Simmo already sprayed the brace & filler cap, gona see wot thay look like on the bike when all finished if it dont work ill just spray them a different colour.
