    Bought it back in 2006 from Milton keynes for £2500 serviced it and took it to the tt,brake were shit as discs were warped so pulsing in the levers,came back and fully stripped it in garage from September to the following March everything OEM from david silver ect the scorpion exhaust but still have origional ,every thing sent down your way to Maidstone for re chrome and polish a lot of stuff was on back order from Japan so hence took a while to do,cost about 3500 plus bike so hence imposs to sell with 6 in it ,but I love it ,rode it for a while back in 2011 but got back on a 1000 and nearly killed myself because of the power diff,she will still do 120 for a 30 year old bike they were good in there day but unfortunately a lot got tracked along with nc30s slowly becoming collector item now image.jpg . I image.jpg . I would love that new v4 when it comes out but realistically I will never have the money they will ask even if I sold all me bikes
