Nope, but you can get an RVF wheel (the NC35, looks like a mini RC45 instead of an RC30) for pretty short $. I'm gonna see what I can dig up that might be a bit erm... lighter than that though![]()
You can get a hub conversion to run Ducati or VFR type wheels, but this bike does NOT need a 180 rear tire.
No one else is laughing trying to picture scottie riding this thing?
or am I the only one?

So how easy are parts to find for it?

Not easy at all, at least not stateside. You can find anything you need in the UK or Japan.... fortunately, Degsy is the man with the plan on that
What I *can* do though is use other stuff (like a more common front end, wheels, brakes, controls, etc.) to minimize the NC30 specific parts. And the motor from it is totally good, so I will be keeping that as a spare if we decide not to rebuild it.

Agreed! My daughter is looking to move up from her Ninja 250, and if I could go buy one of these right now, I would.
She wants to move up to a 600 i4, but I am extremely hesitant to do that. I would love to find a nice 400cc bike for her, but she is demanding full fairings, (kids!) so that knocks out Bandit 400's and CB-1's, which are tough to find anyway. I would like to find a nice FZR400, but these are very rare (not beat to death) as well.
My only other choices are to move up to 500's, which limits me to EX's and GS's.
That VFR looks super sweet! I would try to retain the stock paint job, even if it is a bit loud and retro. That bike is very unique!
gregp, you could always check out the new GSF 650. Air/oil cooled 650 inline 4, so it's nowhere near as nutty as a traditional 600, comes fully faired.
Scottie, I've got an exporter in Japan that deals with bike parts, particularly JDM HRC bits if you need help sourcing specific bits. He's pretty good at tracking down good used bits too.

Nice Scottie.... Tony told me you picked that thing up. Sweet!

Oh, that was Tony's? I kept lusting for that thing but never had the cash... Nice score!

Full list of Motorcycles that Scott has owned since I have known him (2001), in no particular order:
Aprilia RSV-1000 Colin Edwards
Ducati Monster 944
Ducati Monster 750
Ducati 851
Ducati 848
Ducati 800SS
Triumph Dayonta 675
Honda VFR400
Honda CB-1
Husqvarna Supermoto
Kawasaki ZRX1100
Don't worry. Soon Omar will be getting his S1000RR, and Scott won't be able to take it, and purchase either an Aprilia RSV4, StreetFighter, or another Superbike.
Delkevic makes a 17" rear wheel for NC30s for short money. There are also quite a few NC30 parts available on E-bay. Good luck with the project, I love V engined Hondas! especially V4s!
