Honda already made a much better looking cafe-racer around the same time as the NC30 anyway so why not just buy one of them and start from there.

Yep..
GB500TT
You can buy the XBR500 too, they all came out late 80's.
The GB500 has spoked wheels which only the last XBR had.
Cracking fun though.. twin outport 500 single.. balancer shaft so not too vibey and good for over a ton.
Micron do a race system for it too!
Kick start with auto-decompressor AND electric start!
Lovely sound and feel
