1992 Honda VFR400R NC30 Baby RC30 Titled & Registered

Description

It is with great angst that I list this wonderful. rare titled VFR400R (aka NC30) for sale.    

The NC30 is the third generation of VFR400R. and was the best known version. This saw styling changes. most notably the headlights were updated to smaller twin headlights. much the same as the RC30. and relocation of the silencer to the left hand side. which gave a more open look to the rear wheel on the right hand side. This model saw the introduction of the 360?° crank firing engine. which is also known as the "big bang" engine. The tachometer red-line was also raised to 14500 rpm. The NC30 was also officially sold in limited numbers in several European countries. The official European models were sometimes installed with a different CDI (ignition device). no 180 km/h (110 mph) restriction. speedometer that reached to 240 km/h (150 mph) and larger headlights (Germany). The NC30 was produced between 1989 and 1992. though unsold bikes were still available to purchase from Honda dealers for several years thereafter. The NC30 reflected the styling of its iconic bigger brother. the VFR750R (RC30). right down to its 18-inch rear wheel. Japanese-spec NC30s were available in a total of eight different colour schemes. produced with three different model year specifications (1989. 1990 and 1992). Export models were made in two different colour schemes. and carried model year designations L and M (1990 and 1991).

The Honda VFR400R NC30 is widely regarded as being a fine handling motorcycle. The engine has a very wide powerband for a 400cc engine. which made it a perfect beginners-superbike. It has a hardcore fanbase. especially in Japan and the UK. where the NC30 is a popular track-day and racing bike.

I am the second owner of this particular NC30.    I purchased it in July of 2013 from the original owner who imported into California in 1995. and then brought it with him to North Carolina. where it was when I purchased it.    It has a US (MPH) speedometer that was installed on it when new. and reads approx 14. 00 miles.

It has had all fluids recently serviced and is ready to ride.

It is in excellent mechanical condition. and very good cosmetic condition. though not perfect (see close-up pictures).

It has a clean PA title. and is titled as a 1993 model.

If you know these bikes. then you know that titled examples are very rare in the US. and that this is a rare opportunity to buy a titled example.

$500 deposit is required within 72 hours of auction completion.    Payment of balance to be made in guaranteed funds at or before pickup.   Buyer responsible for any shipping arrangement.    I  am willing to arrange to be here as needed for shipper pickup of the bike.
