I finally got an NC29 in January 2009 after being really impressed with my brothers. Was being used as an all year round bike so was seriously rusty:

Stripped it down to this:

Pulled the top end apart, reseated all the valves etc (41,000 miles and not one valve clearance out of spec after the previous owner admitted to not doing them - thats impressive!), had a number of bits shot blast and powder coated and the spent a stupid amount of hours repairing and spraying up what original Honda body panels i had sourced. I still need to get the wheels powder coated but im waiting until the tyres need replacing first. Now looks like this :)

Image

It has:

Dynojet kit
K&N air filter
Goodridge braided lines with Armstrong pads
Moriwaki downpipes with Fuel silencer
GF modified CBR600 shock with Ohlins spring with progressive springs up front
Ignitech ignition
Billet rearsets
Aftermarket clipons

To do/ would like:

Its standard engine wise so would like to get some work done on the engine along with a ram air setup but that involves money i haven't got at the moment.
Racetech emulator valve for the forks

Thank you :) Some people just think they will run forever without doing any maintenance!! I dread to think how many mile the oil had done when i got it!!

Thanks Dan. Got them through eBay. I was really pleased with them. They are these ones:

Those are made by a guy on here called Carl, his forum name is racesupplies. I'm sure if you gave him a bell he'd sort you out, he's a thoroughly decent chap like that!
