Hi guys and girls, Been wanting to get some pics of my NC30 up on here for ages.
So far the modifications when i bought it were: braided brake lines, tyga rear end, tyga rear brake reservoir, adjustable rearsets, blueflame end can, crash bobbins, carbon levers, carbon look mirrors and carbon look front indicators and bar ends.
I have only bought a vfr tank pad but plan on polishing a few things soon like exhaust pipes and brake pistons, exhaust hanger and i wanna get a carbon or black rear hugger and chain guard. Like most peoples VFR's I dont think this'll ever be complete, but Im very hapy with it at the moment, Just gotta get ot up and runnin'. Bring on the good weather!!!!!!!!
Any comments are much appreciated thanks! Just tryin this to see if it works

May sound cool but it causes a lot more pressure in the exhaust and I wouldn't recommend doing it a lot... |

the best popping you can get from the exhaust is after raggin it down a straight somewhere and getting hard on the brakes, dropping the gears.....
thats nice......
bike looks good too. always liked the telefonica colours |
i went to a bukake party at the weekend, i dont know what came over me.... myspace.com/sibmx http://www.justgiving.com/simonspringall |

Ha ha ha, oh my God! I almost didn't do it, I almost didn't do it! I thought, is this in bad taste? But you know what, I went for it. I went for it and I'm so glad I did! Ooooh, worth it, totally worth it.

thanks for the comments guys, I feel i have to give credit to the lad who owned the bike b4 me cos he did all the work up till now, if i was gonna design the plastics the bodywork form scratch this is the exact scheme id have done.
ive asked this a few times b4 but i always seem to trail off the point in posts,lol. but does anyone know for certain that if i dont put my exhaust heat guard on, or replace it, is my tyga barke reservoir gonna melt from the heat????????????????? cos if so im gonna have to bloody use it arent i and i wont get the full effect of polished pipes that i want!!
some other pics i took

Nice bike only really let down be the exhaust. If you have the time then I think removing it and cleaning* it up would help make it look that bit more 'sorted' or at minimum refit the heatsheild to help hide it away better
*clean = wirebrush or wirewheel, wet'n'dry, wirewool, autosol and probably some rust beater to eat away the worst of the surface rust....it would be 2 to 3 hours & 4 new gaskets well spent |
