Anyone mould an NC30 nose cone onto an NC24?

Post by RobMorris »

As per the subject.

I prefer the look of the NC30. But i have the NC24.

Has anyone attempted to mould an NC30 nose cone onto an NC24?
My current nose cone is damaged. I cannot find a replacement. But can find plenty of NC30 nose cones!

Cheers
Rob

I seem to remember this has come up before. I used to own a 24 myself, and i think major changes would be needed!! They are totally different shapes when they mate to the side fairings...mainly as the 30 has 2 side fairings! Can ure nose cone not be repaired?

One of my friends back in Japan has a CBR400RR twin light nose-cone on his NC24, said it was easier to fit than the NC30 cone. Might be worth looking into.

Yeah somewhere!

It looks just like that one, albeit with a much nicer original 24 paintscheme
