Due to having possibly the best wife in the world I will shortly be selling the NC23 as it's been replaced by a not too shabby birthday present:

Never owned a new car let alone a bike. It was 0 miles when delivered and now has 43 but is currently at the dealers having some choice parts added. I love this almost as much as the wife :D

The NC23 will be off to my mechanic for a full service including fitment of a full set of HEL brake lines and an MOT. Then it will get a a wash and detail and will then be up for sale. I'll be putting it up for sale here first in the hope that it will go to someone who knows what they are buying lol. Here's a pic of it in it's current state:

Completely standard with all Honda plastics (no fibreglass copies).

Haha now an RC30 would have been something VERY VERY special. I suppose I'll just have to put up with the KTM ;) Even though I'm still running the engine in IT'S FAST! It's just tarmac ripping stomp from tick over and by god does it want to lift the front in ALL gears when you open the throttle :o

Yeah I know. My brother owned it before me as a fresh import back in the day but a new family made him have to sell it so I snapped it up. It's a fantastic bike and has never had a problem in the time my brother owned it and whilst I've had it. It's got to go though as there isn't much spare room in the garage these days and I just can't justify 2 bikes. The wife has told me I don't have to sell it if I don't want to but the sensible voice inside me tells me I should. I've had loads of fun on the NC23 but now it's time to move on.
