I think there is also a resistor modification?

    ROM limit - I don't think the inline box modifies the RPM rev limit, only another CDI will do that such as an HRC or ignitech programmable one - take a photo and post your cdi? and how far up does it go? ie did you just get scared it was in the red or it actually went off the chart? from memory 14.5k is the limit, from a quick read it suggests that people generally read up to 15.5 standard ue to inaccuracies in the rev gauge, and the programmable box increase it to 16.5 indicated or so.

    I did used to have an nc30 that went to a bloke in chch in 2011 or so which had an hrc cdi on it....kick myself now!

    Appears to be the same I have. Not sure what sort of ignition curve it runs, but does run a lot better than the standard one ( swapped between friends bike to test)

    new here, here's my bike. My dad got it in 1992 with about 12,000km on it. Its now got about 95,000km. Dad had a tendency to not use it for months at a time in summer (he ran in summer, biked in winter) as a result the alternator was always getting nailed to charge up the battery when he did use it. Eventually it killed the alternator, which is pretty much the only work ive had to do to it.

    Well, exchange rate is good, have a talk to Rick Oliver about an ignitec unit? Or if you don't want to go that far I will and sell you my stock one ;-).

    Nice! Cool to have so much history!!! Most of the nc24's have done heaps of kms :-) didn't seem to get raced/tracked/crashed as much as the nc30 maybe?

    why do you need the whole thing? I have a fuel tap repair kit here if you can't be bothered waiting on ebay...spring, diaphragm and plastic bit....fixes HRC modded or leaky fuel taps. only time it should need replacing is if it leaks out the riveted side, or the inside bit snaps (happened to one of mine once).

    Would anyone have a spare RVF headlight assembly in the country?

    Worth a shot here before splashing for one overseas.

    Cheers

    Sorry doesn't seem to have posted my post - have you tried all the wreckers. - econohonda, go wreckers tauranga, the one in ngarawahia and the one in chch? Failing that - plenty on yahoo Japan auctions that you would get in for probably around 60-70$ all up
