    Do you find that they get warm over about a ton?

    I've tried tucking mine under my thighs but they either slip out or my
    eyes start to water after an hour or so.

    what the **** do I want to know about roads in the states for I mean
    honda NC40 (I can only find reference to 30, 35 and 29 on the net)
    I suspect yours are the size of those tiny little malformed peas you
    get in petit pois, all the better for that top speed eh!

    AFAIK there wasn't one. NC35, yes. NC40, no.
    In light of the above? About 0mph

    As you appear to be asking about a non-existent motorcycle, I thought
    I'd suggest an alternative adventure, see.
    More like black-eyed beans, boy!

    Yeah I though as much, A freind was babbling on about how they did
    140mph factory standard, though confusion is his middle name.

    Anyone know the fastest factory advertised speed of any of the honda
    400's I reckon about 125-130mph

    Dont think bollocks of any size will help you get much faster than
    that off a factory standard 400 bike unless you have a bit of gravity
    propulsion.

    Ok... Derrr... ask a stupid question

    NC29 180 Km/h restricted - 220 Km/h unrestricted

    better answer it yourself.....

    how much does de-restricting cost / what do you need to do?

    I guess new exhaust and jets, or is it simply a software upgrade? or
    both....?

    The NC names are from the track aren't they?

    So the NC40 a nickname perhaps for the later VFR400's I dont know?
    that ad said it was an NC40?

    "NC40's" probably only grey import or something.

    Were the race bikes also called RVF rather than VFR for the prod
    bikes? (I remember i had a great racing game on the Atari ST called
    RVF with 400 hondas was that just poetic licence to avoid copyright I
    wonder?)

    funnily enough I found that auction page (philipino pesos) in my
    searches as well, but not many other references to NC40

    No - just internal model designations. The RVF400 is the NC35. The
    RVF750 is the RC45, VFR750 is RC30. The VFR400 can be
    NC21/NC24/NC30/NC33 depending on which year.
    The NC40 is the NV400 - a sleeved down 400cc VT500.
    Yep.

    No it wasn't, the RC30 was the VFR750R ... which is what was said, is it
    not?

    It didn't have a lot in common with the VFR750F (other than a V4 engine),
    but it was officially the VFR.

    Most grey imports have been derestricted before being sold in this country,
    but I don't think it's a big job to do them.
