    So does the other 40% never work, only at times, or also always works?

    Exactly.

    It is the sexest color of the NC IMHO. All the
    other colors are too much like todays production
    bikes. All of the white schemes stand out in a
    crowd

    Word on the street is a that well sorted NC30 is a match for a NC35. The racers over here dump the 30's 18" back wheel and find one from a NC35. Like rocking horse manure though.
    Slightly different carbs (bigger I think on the NC30)

    Forks on both bikes need work.

    Brilliant bikes, a hoot on the track, and at the right circuit will easily embarrass the big boys. But so gutless that road work can get tiresome and in my case dangerous. All or nothing, so every ride becomes a full on mission in an attempt not to have to slow down for anything. Just keep it pinned. I had to sell mine before it killed me. It tried more than once.

    Have a look here for info

    Seamus, don't even think about it. They are tiny things and you'd look silly. Very silly.

    Any excuse to drag out this picture. Again.
    hmm no for sale section on that site. I wonder why.

    you're getting dangerously close to being adding to the "I hate Bwhip list" good thing you don't have it anymore or else I'd chisel your name onto the list.

    Would it help my case if I told you that I actually had two RVFs (NC35) at one time

    you're pushing your luck buddy. You can get back on my good side by going out and finding another one and sending it me. you can do it in parts as long as you send the whole thing eventually.

    Okay, I am confused...

    FLYONWALL9, you have a VFR400 for sale for 6K which includes a title

    Skittles, you have a VFR400 for sale for 5200 and no title...

    So these two bikes are the same, but not... meaning the bike that ONEvcs mentioned is the same as FLYONWALL9's bike, but is actually Skittles bike.

    Correct?

    Nah, there's two or three in this thread. The first one on supermotojunkies, which had pics linked from photobucket in the first 3 posts, then Fly's above with a title, and if I'm not mistaken the one posted above by OneVCS is Skittle's bike. Though the first one may be as well.

    Then somebody has a completely different Rothmann's replica elsewhere in here.

    And not a RC-30 rider in the lot..

    I get the pleasure of fondling an RC30 and
    RC45 on a regular basis and have had the pleasure
    of taking the 45 for a pretty long spin. I'm in the
    process of painting his race only 08 CBR in a
    retro RC30 race paint scheme, I can post pics
    if it flips up anyones skirt. A good friend of mine
    owns them, he is friends with another guy that
    lives here in Bama that often buys and sells
    NC's, NR's, and NSR's. He does outstanding
    work on all his resto's but never bothers getting
    titles for the most part.

    My NC sold this past Monday on FleaBay, well
    I should say I have gotten a deposit on it with
    hopes she will have a new owner very soon. It
    only took 3 times listing it before the new owner
    saw it. I'm proud that he thought it was worth what
    I was asking when I first listed it, bringing 6600 bones.

    I wish I could ride the thing with my bad back but being
    laid up 3 days after a 120 mile ride isn't my idea of fun.

    Just passing along the bike is still for sale. The person
    that won it at auction ended up being a DEADBEAT
    bidder and did not follow through with payment.

    So, if your still interested its still for sale. I would
    like to also say it now has ZERO miles on new
    fluid change. Also, I found some rock chips in the
    lower fairing (when doing the oil change) so I
    repainted the red and white portions of that fairing.
    So, it now looks like new again.
