    Love the sounds of those bikes, I love the look of my NC30 but prefer the sound of the 24.

    bike looks great mate, people might be a little put off with the high km though

    Yeah that's the main issue that I'm having with selling it. Have tried dropping my price a bit to make a sale. But had mainly time wasters really.

    Maybe do some looking into a total cost of parts for a full rebuild, and mention its coming up to a full rebuild which will cost $blah blah for parts then ++ for any labour costs, overall it would still be cheap, but people dont know what the cost of it would be.

    Yeah good point. I think what I will do is see how it goes by being up here (better to get the word out on here). Then if still no luck then I will def look into doing so. Cheers.

    I used to know a past owner of this bike, and i am 90% sure that this bike has been rebuilt at some point in the last 10,000 km. Remember when you took the bike for a test ride before you bought it? I was the guy that you followed. Il ask the last owner for reassurance

    Yeah, good point . I did get a chance to ride it too, felt a hell of a lot smoother and better than the NC24 i owned at the time which had done 70,000 kms.
