    I wouldn't bother with an HRC kit. Give you more problems than this worth.

    Why don't you all just stick a loud pipe on 'em, leave them alone and ride the feckers?

    Silent is right... HRC setup is not worth it for road bike. it will run like a bag of balls without massive effort and you will not get 70hp; at least not without extreme work like 450cc, compression, pistons, rods and NC35 head etc, massive coin needed.

    The evidence is clear already when just look how many non stock, modified (poked) NC30 road bikes there are... it's such that you can't get one with a stock induction at all these days as they've all been butchered beyond the point of no return. They all fail. Please save yourself many headaches mate... if you have an NC30 with a totally stock setup (minus can of course) then you should feel blessed.

    Better mods for NC30 are rear shock, springs for forks, jack up link for rear.
    ...Full throttle till you see god, then brake.

    Iv been tempted between a stand and a Dolly,

    If you seen the space I had in our garage you would be shocked at how I can do anything lmao, yet I managed to fit the 250 and the 400 in there side by side, with a tonne of effort, we have an uphill slope into the garage so In order to get the bike out, I either ride it into the garage and get off, then when I need it, I push it out backwards and either push it uphill to turn it around, or push it 20M past all the crap down the driveway and turn it around on the street, or I ride it up to the garage, try and push it up hill then turn it and push it uphill and over a ledge into the actual garage so the front is facing out.. haha a dolly would be great, ride in, rode on, turn. Lmao

    I have brought some HEL front and rear braided lines, the next thing on the agenda brake wise is a calliper rebuild kit or new callipers? dunno if you can get after market ones or anything like that? mine arnt looking flash hot.. infact they are looking like a 40 year old life long hooker, So here are my questions,

    Can you pick up a calliper rebuild kit easy and cheap enough? and could you use callipers from another bike?
    and can you get a fork rebuilt kit as well or do you need to buy all the components separate

    Search 400GB for calipers that work. I believe its fireblade calipers from around the year 2000 work.

    I think you need adapter plates with them for nc30. nc35 is a straight swap
