Thought I'd share with you all some more pictures of my dads project VFR400 NC24; Latelty, the forks have been refurbished, the front wheel bearings replaced, the headrace bearings replaced and a few things polished and painted.....such as this top yoke:

For those who love looking at the guts of engines...here are the top's of the gear's that drive the camshafts:

Anyone who's done valve clearances on an SV knows its a bit of a faff (although not as faffable as doing them on a VTEC honda...). The NC has an ingenious solution...simple adjusters that you can use your ordinary flat-head screw driver on. Just twiddle to adjust the vavles if they are out of the tolerance limits...no shimming required:
