Yes very interesting as the nc29 frame seems it may have its design based on that bike as the frame is fairly unique in shape. Maybe Yakama can shed some light on this as he seems to be into F3 stuff.

Yes, thinking about the designers must of had this in mind at the time along with the nsr gullarm swingarm. Race inspired as they say. I expect the design would make more sense to Japanese F3 lovers as history has shown the frame was never copied again. A boy racer thing i suppose.

Re: Fore runner to the mighty nc29...
It appears to be a similar concept to the ducati motogp bike with the carbon airbox frame ,in that the headstock is mounted around the cylinder head with a cast section to the rear swingarm !
