Bringing the old girl back to life

[mattnc30]

Firstly a big hello to everyone!!

Well after a crunch in the car its time to get back on to the NC30, although to do so i'm gonna have to get it back on the road after my last spill Other then the right hand rearset bracket needed and throttle cable, and return cable, what should i be looking to do before i bring her back into life??

Also should i stick some new rubber on to the bike as it has been standing for over a year now.

many thanks matt :)

Go for a full service, oil, coolant, brake fluid, air and oil filters, new spark-plugs, fresg petrol, clean the carbs etc etc A year is a long time to leave it standing so if you do all this the bike will love you for it.

cool beans, although i'm a bit warry of the carbs on the vfr, heard they can be a bit of a git, also dont i have to take the radiators off to get to the front spark plugs??

You can get to the front plugs with the top rad intact, but it's best practice to ramove it as you'll not damage any fins that way, and if you are replacing the coolant you might as well take the rads off and give them a clean anyway.

true true, not done a service on the bike myself yet, but i have the manual and as long as i take my time should be all gravy :)

If you get stuck with anything just post it up, we're here to help. Carbs can be a bit scary and can also be difficult to re-seat, but like everything, take your time and you'll be reet
