here is the fun bit though, the speedo goes to 180kph, about 120, but the needle goes to about the nikon seiki bit, and a bit beyond, if its not restricted, which not alot of them are
very nice bike, but i am a little biased towards v4's
v4
will

No it isnt 125mph.
there are 1.6 kilometres in a mile. SO...divide 187 by 1.6 and, hey presto, your true speed.
116 mph??

Very nice Sean, i was suprised at the fact it has no rev limiter though, it's quite worrying.
Very good condition and lots of receipts, you got a bargain mate, just keep it mint. |

180km/h is 110mph just need to clarify that. I would be very surprised if the VFR does hit a true 130. Seems too good to be true.
Anyway, nice bike, best colour scheme out for it. ____________________ Honda MBX50 | Yamaha RD125LC | Suzuki RG125F Lucky Strike | Suzuki GSF600S

Might be worth checking, as if you're running that kind of road/engine speed ratio, sounds like the bike's been over geared. Returning it to standard will decrease the road/engine speed ration and give you better acceleration. Plus the speedo on NC30s is driven off the front sprocket, so if the gearing's been changed, it's likely that the speedo has become inaccurate.
From memory I think standard gearing is 15/40.
Nice bike btw, see you on 400gb  |

This bike is immaculate, has one tiny little scratch on the right hand side, the rest is mint, everythings clean and polished, shitloads of paperwork and receipts, it's had the valves done...Don't see how you can have a cleaner bike unless yours doesn't have one tiny scratch on it.  |
