Another RVF thread!

Great thread Hooligan.

Looking good mate. I can vouch for the Image works too - they are top quality

I don't know, I sent them an e-mail for a price quote for full replica kit. Their website said, be patient, it may take a few days to get back to you, we are busy and handle lots of e-mail everyday. Um, that was about 2-3 weeks ago.

On the other hand Rick Oliver is the man! I sent him a list of parts that I need on Sunday afternoon and he responded immediately! I told him he should have been out at Donington watching Sir James fall down instead.

Thanks for all the compliments and responses, this forum has helped me out tremoundously with this luverly project bike!

I might be able to help. I DO have a SPARE loom. I bought a load of parts off E-bay and it was included. I don't know if it is NC-30 or NC-35 so I'll have to check. I was told it is NC-35. I'll lay it out and take a picture. Check back later.....

Nope, sorry mate, it's not a NC-35 loom and I don't think it is a NC-30 loom. I don't know what the hell it is?

Anyone care to take a guess at it?



This is the load of parts I bought off E-Bay. I've checked all the parts numbers to the NC-35 fiche and most are for the NC-35. Some are unknown. I got 2 rocker cover gaskets, 2 head gaskets, 6 sets of fork seals, 8 exhaust port gaskets, 3 thermostats, thermostat housing, 6 dzus fastners, 8 exhaust port nuts, hoses, nuts, bolts, and many other gaskets, seals, etc. All genuine Honda parts in original plastic. I think it was a steal, considering we can't get any of this stuff over here, $400 USD for the whole lot.



Here is a pic inside the tank after the sealer. It's not too pretty, a little lumpy here and there, but everything is covered, and this stuff is supposed to be impervious to just about anything and is supposed to last a very long time.

Damn you Jeff, so you were the one that outbidded me. Those parts came from Tim over at GPC, good deal for the lot. By the way I picked up the panel you sent today..thanks again.

That was you! Bastid. Yeah, TZ Tim. Well, you know if you ever need anything, you know where to find it now. You cost me A LOT OF MONEY$$$$$. Jumped from $165 to $400 in the last minute of the auction. That wasn't me bidding, that was the automatic E-bay system. I entered a maximum bid of $400 days earlier just because I thought this motor was seized and I desperately NEEDED those parts and couldn't get them anywhere else. The auction was kind of misleading because there was no real description of the parts and like I said, a bunch of the stuff isn't even for the RVF. What was he doing with these parts in the first place? Small world man, but then again, how many RVF's are there in the US anyway. Did I call you a bastid yet?!

[calirvf]

LOL...well I only bid up to $275 since I was waiting for Tim to get back to me on the list of the items..I'm pretty sure you have more than $400 worth of parts there. Let me know what you have and I might buy it from you. :D

Are those exhuast port gaskets the ones that mate to the cyclinder heads and rear manifold? If so, I need the two front and two rear if you wanna send them my way (CA)?

But seriously, if you want to sell them let me know.

I was looking at the part numbers and think they are the same as a VFR so maybe i can get the local honda dealer to order them.

[calirvf]

Nas- hows the bike coming along? You still planning on selling it..

[nas00]

Cali-

Depends on what direction my life goes in the next year (grad school wise)... right now just tinker w/ it in my spare time. I'll put up some pics in the days to come. You find your MC28 yet?
