Scott's NC30 Track Bike Build
Acquired this NC30 and a spares bike recently
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=54284
Will be a track bike.
Its a little rougher and the crash damage is worse than first anticipated.

Re: Scott's NC30 Track Bike Build
At least you have spares. I’d check the yokes too

Re: Scott's NC30 Track Bike Build
This is a bit of a budget project and I was hoping for the motor to be relatively sound (aside from the usual valve and carb issues).
Unfortunately I found this
so the chances of this motor running hot in the past are high.
How do head gaskets etc hold up to overheating on these motors?
Found this "catch bottle thing" on the inside of the fairing next to radiator hole.....amazing what people consider as a fix!

Re: Scott's NC30 Track Bike Build
The bike had a massive oil leak which I traced to the back of the waterpump.
Pulled the pump and came across this, already has an insert in which has been over tightened and split.
Previous owners answer to the leak was obviously more spanner torque
going to attempt to extract insert, ali weld and put a new insert in.

Re: Scott's NC30 Track Bike Build
As for bodywork I'm going to chop the bottom of tailpiece (hope I don't upset any purists on here ) and use the sub-frame that it came with.
For the fairing I'm thinking something similar to the Tyga kit for the MC18 / 21's.
(like the bike second from the left in the image at the top of the page)
This fugly front setup will be the first thing in the bin!!!
Comments welcome on bodywork.
