NC mileage
How many miles has your nc30 covered.
I spoke to a chap today with 67,000m [ just gone around the clock ] and the engine was as quiet as my very quiet 16,000m one.

Re: NC mileage
53k from an NC35, engine was running sweet but started jumping out of gear so swapped the engine.
I'm pretty sure that it was abuse by the previous owners athough about 12 trackdays can't have helped!

Re: NC mileage
mine is showing 74,000-odd kms. Although that's not likely to move much at the moment due to a knackered regulator.

I have used the bike to commute almost every day for the past 8 years and it's become a great friend. I'll admit that it is cosmetically challenged at the moment, and in its road state rather than trackday guise, but I still love to see it in the carpark at the end of the day and am glad that it's mine.
I was looking at the '700 mile' RWB NC30 yesterday when spotted and had a quick chat with "arsey30". I'd never seen a UK NC30 before, so went for a gander. Cracking iconic example, some minor cosmetic tarnishing the only downside.
Me, I'm sticking with the well worn approach, but still have a healthy respect for those who want cossetted examples, because they are just fantastic to look at.
Regards,
Dave.

Re: NC mileage
who was it in southwales that used to commute on his daily, and ran up some galactic mileage before selling it to graeme france, with around 100k on it, and buying a low mileage RVF to continue his commute.
