The front end is from a K4/5 GSX-R 600/750. I have a K5 750 and the only thing that lets the bike down is the forks, and yes that is a complete Silhouette fairing he had.

@ Jeff, I'm looking both looks and performance. There's nothing wrong with my present set-up, but I think a USD front will finish the bike off nicely (once I get it finished...)

It's only the Silhouette upper cowl and rear seat unit, and all other panels are original honda panels.

love the way this bike looks, maybe just me but it looks chunkier than the usual NC35's, probably down to those lush gandor cans trick front end.

good job

How very dare you, LOL!

Bike is still in my posession, infact I rolled it out for the first time in months on Sunday as I was tidying garage out and I forgot just how sexy it is (I know I'm biased!). New neighbour came over for a shufty too (he's got a GSXR) as he's always clocked something under the covers but never knew what was there.

Uut of MOT and tax currently, but I left it properly "wintered" drained fuel, etc. so it shouldn't be too much getting it fired up again.

Still in two minds as to selling, my body's knackered these days and the NC is hard work with ankles in my arse and weight on arms aggrevating my knackered triceps tendons!

Well, the USD conversion is going aheah. Got some forks, yokes and spacer kit to fit. Just need some clip-ons, calipers and braided hoses and its ready to go.
