Right, time to put this site to use for its intended purpose.

I'm after a motor for my recently aquired NC23 CBR400. Henry (Takanini) said he doesn't have one, and Atomic want to bend me over and ream me.

I'd also take an NC29 motor if it'll definately bolt in (no modifications)

talk _real_ nicely to roo cos they got about 3 nc23 motors in pieces ;)
and an nc29 will not fit into an nc23 frame without drilling a couple of mounting points out...

Engine Specs for the CB-1 400 (http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/model/Honda/honda_cb1%20400%2089.htm) seam the same as for the CBR 400RR (http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/model/Honda/honda_cbr400rr%2087.htm). Might be worth a look. Doug (RIB) posting under BabyB's log-in

I heard that too, but they might frown on me if they found me racing a 600 in F3

check trademe out Gav someone is selling a CBR400 not running, as the carbs are poked (poorly adjusted i'd say) rest of the bike looked pretty mint, reserve already reached at something like $300 or some shit like that i know it was cheap, might be worth a look as a spare parts bike, or as the bike and the other as your parts bike, reckon you could end up with a good bike for even if you paid close to $1500 for the other CBR and put the two together and had heaps of spares for racing in F3 :2thumbsup

Bump. Due to an unnamed parts department, I won't be able to get my original motor back together by the 14th.

I'm looking for a 2nd hand one again if anyone knows of one going
