I've spent the last five years putting this together with original or fabricated parts.

I'll never get the money back spent on her but it was a project/dream to own one of these since I was a kid.

Bike is on Tardme (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=880823422)

311229

I've spared no expense but need an adventure bike to complete an NZ photographic tour - will consider a swap for Africa Twin or BMW Dakar type

Full Castrol RVF paint scheme (from Donnington SBK 1995) custom painted on new fiberglass fairings.

Expanded carbonfibre airbox. Carbonfibre Tank protector, exhaust can holder, front mudguard, heel guards, airbox intake tubes, chain guard and fairing inserts.

Braided front brake lines, Brembo (Ducati 916) radial master cylinder, Fireblade 956 (larger) Nissin calipers. Enhanced loud electric horn. MV Augusta rear mirrors.

Aye. If I could've kept all of the bikes I've had over the years I'd need a fucking big barn.

Easily one of the best NC35s i have seen/heard.
Makes me sad about parking up mine for the last year or so.

Very nice indeed! Unfortunately, though I'd like to, I can't buy it at the moment. But could you put up some more pictures to drool over please?

Good luck with selling.

Haha none of the above, started a new exciting job from my old one at Thunderbird Cafe :msn-wink:
But going to miss seeing and hearing your bike around town.

That bike is a credit to you.

Shame it has to go, but that's life unless you have wads of cash and a big barn as Crasher said......
Boy, when I think of some of the bikes and cars that have slipped through my hands over the years..... :crybaby:
