Vfr750 rc30

The 400's are pushing about 60bhp, so not bad really imo. Meant to handle very nice. I think I might have one as my next bike, but im not certain as im not sure how ill feel losing 50% power...

Not to bad I don't suppose 0-60 4 seconds, but then you can compare it to a 600 whih you wouldnt pay to much more for and take a second off the 0-60 etc but then you'd miss the looks If I could afford two bikes then I would defo get an NC30

Aye, but something i have learnt is that you dont need all that performance on the road... I love the falco to bits but its rare I use all the performance and when I do it takes me into licence losing territory rather quickly!

Way I see it is that the corners are the fun bits, the straights just get in the way, so a 60-70bhp bike is enough 99% of the time... Since a race bread 400 should out handle the likes of the SV650 out of the box so to speak and is something a little different it should make a great road bike. Plus im only small and lightweight


Oh and if you (if your weird ) dont like the standard look, there is this.

In which case it’s that’s the older buildings. Didn’t think they had offices that side of the road. Always thought their offices were upstairs above the showroom when it was the old green tin can. I think their office is now on the first floor at the back of the secondhand bikes section, but they just look like bog standard white space offices.

Now the parts warehouse, would love to have a look round there. Having worked sorting out stockrooms before I can imagine that they have all sorts of hidden gem’s tucked away in there...

You werent trying hard enough then.

My brother had an NC35, we tried the traffic light GP, and TBH there was nothing in it between his RVF and my SV. He coudlnt loose me through the twisties on it either.

30's and 35's are a bitch to launch properly.

See the "For Sale" link in my sig to see an NC35 launch.

they still retain the concept of a "tall first gear" do they not?

I would love an RVF400
