Inverted fork conversion for the vfr 400 nc30?

[xivlia]

Hello, i was wondering if it is possible to fit nc35 inverted forks onto the nc30? if so, does it require huge amounts of modification?, will there be any improvements over the normal forks? is it worth the hassle? but my main question is....is there ANY way of doing it? i would really like to try and convert to inverted forks JUST for the looks even if it doesnt give better handling etc.. i know this question seems like its been asked before....im not sure if it has or not, but ive searched for it for at least 15 seconds... i couldnt find any tropical fish or posts regarding this. so i made one up. thanks guys

Rick O does a fitment kit. His kit also allows most modern Honda inverteds as well. 929 blade looks good on 30's :)

I don't think you looked very hard it's asked at least once a month.

With forks, overhaul forks (no point doing half a job), fitting kit, brake calipers etc your going to be looking around 300 gbp.

No difference in forks either, I wouldn't bother.

Fix the problems with the bike and keep the money for when you break it again. It's money your not goign to get back

I did it on my VFR, and for all intents and purposes, it was a waste of time and money. Costs a fortune to do, you need forkt, yokes, clip-ons, calipers, spacers etc It did look good, but my standard forks that hard Rick O's internalt and the Brembo calipers made the bike's front end hard to fault.

Here's what she looked like,

Looks good!

As for your bike.. I really wouldn't bother.. whats the point of it 'looking good' (if you prefer the fork style) if the bike is a POS?

With the money you could buy or put towards

Decent rear shock.
Front fork kit
Upgraded brakes (brembo / sp1 et al)
Tyres / chains and sprockets.

IF you already have all of this and are made of money then fair enough.

But all of the above will make your bike a lot quicker than a set of 35 forks.

And just to add, the fork conversion was that last thing I'd done on the bike as there was nothing left to do on the bike.

Its not cheap at all , mine cost an arm and a leg with maxton spec forrks , tyga yokes , 600rr calipers , ses clip ons ect ect but does look nice.

I did it only because i prefered the look , like others have said a waste of money and not a priority if theres other more important things to do.
