You're going to like this forum - there's a fantastic number of projects to be found within the threads.

Weekdays aren't open to me unfortunately Spike - too much random overtime where I work. Will keep an eye out on the rideouts section for sure though.

I do like this bike. I was even going to show it to my dad! :D
The exhaust system looks great, if I was thinking of changing the look and sound of my 30 I might go down that route too.

Well done.

I thought you were complaining about it drawing attention every where you went with it? This thing must draw crowds!

Erm....I get the odd visitor who wants to see what's lurking in the back of my garage....but that's about it. The bike hasn't been on the road for far too long.

Hello Craig,
Was I one of those ODD visitors, from what I saw, there was only only one thing wrong with your bike, it is not in my garage, only joking

lol, not quite Dave.

Last time I was speaking to the "odd odd-chap" was a fellow I met up at Newlands when talking about his mint condition CB72.

I meant odd chap as in: not the usual, regular, habitual, accounted for, etc.; occasional; incidental;

"Craig still received the odd visitor when working on his NC30, who thought it odd that after two years' tinkering it was still not out on the road yet."

As mentioned in "Judgement Day", the bike is now on the road. I've just sourced an RVF rear wheel, which will be powdercoated white, so that I can also fit my rear hugger with no modifications (hopefully). Here's some hi res photos, I noticed that the previous were only 2 megapixels.

I'm embarassed to say, riding it for the first time in 2 years, or rather, the first time since it was a Tyga bike, the noise, the feeling from the suspension, the reflections as I rode it, almost bought a tear to my eye, Having it tested was like doing my A-Levels again after 2 years' revision. It passed without a drama, in fact Tony was very glad to see it at last.

So..what do you reckon to it then? Are you going to give it some welly places when you feel the need?

Glad to see you got it finished - it looks lovely. Would like to see it in the flesh one of these days. The paintwork looks very deep.

Good arrows man.. 8-)
