Any damage?

500 for fairings, 300 for tank, 750 if you take the lot

there is a complete set there for mounting, but i'm not 100% sure about the red colour match between the two sets as laid out in the first photo

I bought all this days before my nc30 was nicked!

EDIT: I'm in auckland and can drop off with the van if you're not too far from my travels

right... who's got a gps and who's going to the track?

They also have sprints.

Flat run for about 2.2km or something silly.
One can get a higher top speed than on a track.
And it is timed.

Update on the raceevolution fairings, the guy has emailed me to say that "As for the tail, we will most likely carry out a refund on the tail

".... Given I ordered a full kit from them, custom painted, can he do that (ony give a refund of half the product)?

Get a full refund.

Everyone take your NC30s along to Pukekohe on the 18th, let's make it a day of V4 madness. 90 bucks the whole day. It would be insane to hear all those V4s droning down the straight from the pits.

Would be nice to be sitting on the pit entrance and hear the motors loaded up as people are coming up the hill.

Remember to keep the throttle pinned from the hairpin right through till you brake for turn 2.

Pussies.

Wow, that's some bad news there.

Hopefully mine aren't too hard to fit. AJ mentioned that he has had some luck before mixing and matching the old/new parts.

He wasn't planning to do the tail, but unfortunately the stock tail section on my bike is getting quite brittle and has a ton of cracks through it. He mentioned that he needs the center piece because the RaceEvolution supplied ones don't have correct mounts for the brake lights, which again is unfortunate as mine has a broken tab. Could always grab it off him next week and solvent weld on a new tab, I guess.

I'm still optimistic that it will turn out for the best, but at this point, I'd probably be looking elsewhere if I were doing it over. Anyone know if JustFairings have a 2-up tail piece? I notice under their 'road fairings' section they only have the front pieces.

You pay and i will be there! Do they check licences? Should have my full by then but just curious.

I have a spare h bit that the tail light goes onto. Bit scratched and one tab mission maybe but works..

Thanks, I think I've got a spare with a missing tab hanging in the shed too, but I'll keep that in mind.

No they don't check licenses. No wof/rego/license required- just cruise on and have fun.

Just changed my exhaust from stock to the full tyga stainless race system,
remind me to NEVER remove the stock exhaust system from an NC30, that and do it with Tigertim20 who somehow managed to crush my hand under the subframe and rear wheel after the shock was removed haha
Sounds SWEET.. wouldnt pass a WOF though... :L
