RC30 - old race bikes

From Mondello Park this weekend, Barry Gill and Derek Wilson back in action in the new Classic Superbike class. Nice to see some battle weary RC30's back out and being used as nature intended! http://i697.photobucket.com/albums/vv336/dancesonvans/9BEFE4D3-4435-4969-A929-C3DE633E7EFF_zps9jxk2rav.jpg ...

Radial fork swop

Currently stripping down my 2007 cbr1000rr (superbike engine going in), and it casually looks like the front end might fit the RC45 Upper fork 50mm, lower 54mm, fork distance 214mm... I think it might be a fit if I used the cbr1000rr wheel and discs etc. in the rc45 yokes. Anyway, I might try it out...

Changing clutch plates

Right. I'm clearly doing something stupid here. The clutch started slipping last time out; so I'm midway through changing the plates. However - I've never worked inside a 45 before and I'm a bit stumped!! How do you lock the slipper so you can undo the centre nut? (Item number 5 in the diagram) http...

Re: RC45 17 inch front wheel options

Hi John. If you choose a VFR400R/NC30 or RVF400/NC35 front wheel, you can fix the front wheel with RC45's disks and wheel side collars. Just for the benefit of anyone else looking at 17 inch options, I can confirm that the RVF400 front is indeed a straight fit, with the RC45 discs and spacers http:...

PGM FI fault codes

Howdy all, The pgmfi light is on on the RC45. It'll idle for a second or two, then the revs will rise slightly and the light comes on. It is revving fine and idling fine, but I haven't ridden it yet (still a work in progress!) On bridging the under seat connector, the fault code is 5 short blinks. A...
