If its the one in the pic, then that looks a good deal.

Worse case you'll be able to part it out and get your money back. A fairing kit (assuming its all good) can be worth a tidy sum. But it looks a well looked after bike judging by the forks...

As for the NC30, still not ridden one, but have done bits of work to them. No different then other 400's. But beware NC30's are good to modify as said check out 400greybike there are some cool machines on there. If I were you I'd start with a Ducati front end (oddly I have a spare) swap, and see where your wallet takes you.

I had an ex who had one. Rode it from Squires to Scarborough and could not see what all the fuss was about. Rev the nuts off it to get anything. Absolutely no torque and far too cramped for 6 footer. ANything to do with the rear bank of cylinders was a pain to work on. They are only 2-3 KG lighter than an SV650 but have 56-60 BHP. If you want it because you want to have one then go for it. If you want a bike to use.....
