As some will know I am searching high and low for an NC30/RVF. I have stumbled across this and would like to know what the seat height is (in particular whether it has been increased, comparing 2 side by side pics it didn't actually come across as higher - the NC30 has a large tail section where the tyga kit has fresh air).
Thanks :D

Nope, definately not. I had 2 NC's at one time. 1 was fitted with a Tyga seat and the other was a standard bike. Although the Tyga seated bike had a new shock in it, it wasn't any higher than the standard shock. The Tyga seat was definately higher than the standard position, but by how much I don't know as I never measured it and have since sold one of the NC's and sold the Tyga seat off the other.

If it is for Mrs Santa and she is vertically challenged then would not be looking at a TYGA seat matey!
Saying that - you can get a lowering kit for the bike but this would not help your riding it when you take it for a spin now and again...

yes it is for mrs santa LOL - she loves the look of the tyga kit as well and I can already see it in RCV211V (?) colours
maybe I am dreaming a bit on this one, but the guy said he'd take £1650 which seems VERY good considering the price of the kit itself although there are no original parts supplied...
....is there anywhere that this "stat" could be found, I have tried the tyga website but to no avail....
We are still hunting for that elusive red/white/blue NC30 in great condition (under £1500) but until then all options will be considered

This might help illustrate it, (Castrol bike isn't mine) this will possibly be the best back-to-back comparison. Both bikes have the same Hyper-Pro shock and both are standard 18' rear wheels and both are fitted with the standard VFR dog-bones
