    Are all VFR400 engines the same?

    Hey guys

    There is a VFR400 engine for sale on tm at the moment, the engine number is nc13e-1036710. Im thinking of getting it as a bit of a project for myself. I just want to know, will it fit in my nc30 if need be?

    I did a bit of research and it seems like it came out of a NC21. Someone told me that the older engine has slightly different mounts, but i dont know for sure. And are there any other internal differences?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    NC21 and NC24 are the same, NC30 is definately different i am just not sure how.

    Heads etc LOOK the same though, but looks can be decieving, ask a hondur forum.

    My bike has about 2000rpm more before the limiter hits than Koba's NC21. Still about equal pace from the lights. What's more their ignition timing is different which gives their engines different, but equally awesome, tunes.
