Hi All, Spoke to the exhaust people today, the new system should be finished by this weekend so I should be able to go and pick the bike up along with the...
Just thought you guys might be interested. There are two RC30s left in the United States that are unsold. I have on of them. I am the Motorcycle Doctor, ...
Richard This is slightly less than I was quoted by two vendors, one a repudable well known firm the other an unknown quality source (i would use the first but...
Hi, Has anyone ever looked into the effects of using an exhaust manifold from an RC30 or 45 on the '94 to '97 VFR750 ? I am building a track day bike from a...
Gordon, I remember Cole (Rc3094) posting this info up sometime ago check out http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/hondarc30ownersclub2/message/2152 Clinty...
Thanks Ian I remember this message now! ********************************* Paint codes for the RC30: NH193PA - Pearl White PB-186 - Seychell Night Blue PB-166 -...
Hi Andy, If the VFR model you are using is an RC36 then the motor is virtually an RC30 and the exhaust system and the carbs will fit. The RC30 exhaust system...
The RC30/45 crank is 360, the VFR is 180. Given the big bore you are using, the RC30 exhaust may not be the most efficient design to use. The carb swap may not...
Hi All, Got myself a VFR800Fi today, I know it's not an RC30 but it's still a V4, It'll be used as my daily transport. If there's anyone else on this list that...
Guys, As with all RC's my right front disc is slightly warped so I am going to change them. My question is which brand should I get Brembo full floaters or...
check it out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=6708&item= 1876045993 interesting that the 45 prices and 30 prices are getting...
Hi Jamon, Your right about the crank timing, it'd been a long day. I'm not sure of the type of carbs on the VFR but I think they are smaller than the RC30's...
Hi Billy, If I was going to use my RC30 solely as a track bike (which I do) I'd get any cast iron disc's as replacements for the RC3O originals, they offer...
For my RC36 project (836 cc, TBR complete exhaust, tuned engine) I need Keihin FCR 39 (flatslides) carbs. New ones are too expensive for me. I am willing to...
Ian, I had thought about cast iron disks but I had heard that they can break after a few years. I don't want to pay for a pair of disks that may break. The ...
RC30 exhaust headers will not fit on a '90-'93 or '94-'97 VFR750F. The 'VFR' exhaust ports are (how do I describe this?) - planer, while the RC30 (and '86-'89...
Have to disagree. Contrary to the marketing hype the '90-'97 VFR and the RC30 engines have numerous differences. Exhaust port flange orientation is one of...
Hi, This is all sounding very interesting, the only reason I said about the fact the RC30 and VFR motors were pretty much the same was, as you said, I believed...
Hi all, Last week a pal dropped by and gave me a VFR 800i motor to play with. Are there any parts inside that can be used on the RC30 ie, gearbox, bearings,...
It's an RC45 based motor. I don't think any parts would be interchangable with the RC30. ... From: colinwrc30 To: hondarc30ownersclub2@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
Does anybody out there run an HRC rear shock and linkage? Maxton recommends running a rear shock without a resevoir, due to the short stroke of the shock....
I run a stock shock rebuilt by Lindemann Engineering with the stock linkage. It feels as good as Olins units I have tried. I would think the amount of oil...
But it's the speed of the oil through the shim stack that determines how they respond. A quick shock movement forces more of the shim stack to move than a slow...
Hi Jamon, You said: "Now I seem to remember reading something about twin shocks being able to respond better to suspension movement because the piston speed...
Hi Ian, Cole and Gordon. Is the red colour code below from Honda directly or is it a "match" from a painter do you know? I'm having enormous difficulty getting...
-Martin The codes you have are the correct Honda numbers. However, they don't do anyone much good, as the formulas are not available. The easy way is to go to...
Your right. Classic Racer issue # 87 (Jan/Feb 2001). But their must be something to it. Crighton mentioned other reasons, as well as the heat and damping...
