Honda NC30 Dyno Test HD

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

This is my 1989/90 Honda NC30. This is a re-shoot of the bike on the dyno with a far better camera than the one I made the original video with a few years back. In HD and with a proper shielded microphone I am hoping to better capture the sounds of a little 400cc Honda V4 spinning its crank up to almost 15k rpm and its gear driven cams at half of that speed. The bike is fully de-restricted with HRC ignition box, proper jetting for the 100 Low Lead aviation fuel it is set up to burn, snorkel removed from airbox for more intake noise and a random M4 carbon slip on pipe that just happened to be the right size to fit on the stock Honda 4:2:1 exhaust collector. The bike makes a whopping 54 bhp but is one of the most fun to ride bikes I have ever had the pleasure of beating on. None of the suspension internals are stock in the forks and the rear shock is a Penske. Supermoto take off tires are perfect with the NC35 17 inch rear wheel spinning in the single sided hub. God, I love this bike, the sound is amazing and you pretty much have to try to crash one at the track to do any damage. Total mileage on engine and chassis is close to 30k miles!

    I owned one of these in the 90s it had a custom paint job a carbon race can kn filter and dyno jet kit in the carbs, on the dyno it put out 60 bhp at the back wheel it was a great bike but if you rode it in traffic on a sunny day it felt like a oven, I wished I still had it today.

    I had a 1986 VFR750FG, the FG stood for F-ing goes. That bike was way ahead of its time, once uncorked, the only thing that had more legs back in the 80s was FJ1200 a bike with almost twice the displacement. A friend I rode with had slightly modified VFR and it could keep up with my 98 CBR900RR. It could still hang with modern sport bikes GSX & CBR 600s 15 years down the road, easily out torquing them. At the Tokyo motor show I saw Honda introduce a new VFR 1200 with a dual clutch.

    I have had 2 of the genuine 750cc 1986 Honda V4's, awesome bikes and yes, way ahead of it's time. My last one made 106 bhp on a dynojet 150, so maybe 88-93 on my current dyno. The chassis was sort of crap with the 16"/18" wheel combo but all in all it was a rockin ride!

    About 130mph at the rev limiter with the gearing that was on for that test, same gearing the bike ran last when raced at Texas World Speedway years ago.

    I agree for a 4t engine the V4 fits the bill perfectly for bikes and gives an engine sound so perfect to my ears. One of these days an RC45 and RC30 will find their way home with me. I passed on a crated RC45 last year for $28k and a salvage title bike for $18k...they need to come down a little more...please! One a side note my Aprilia RSV4-R demo in white came in today, too bad the forecast for the rest of the week is snow and freezing temps/rain.

    The bike only had a well used M4 slip on from some other bike and the intake snorkel removed from the airbox along with jetting and the HRC CDI unit, otherwise all stock parts. The NC30's just make lovely music, nothing more than a slip-on pipe really required to enjoy the sound.

    Because it sounds cooler honestly, the 1-2 bhp gain was not worth the trouble but the intake noise is!

    Great quality video, may I ask why your running without the snorkel?

    I have always like the Translogic models of QS systems but this bike does not have one on it, simply letting off the throttle slightly and upshifting by hand. Glad you thought it was that smooth though!

    Like the V8 engine in cars, the V4 in bikes has something special, the best of all worlds. The V5 is a hybrid that is also impressive if not as well balanced. Once you've had one everything else seems lacking somehow.

    You can get 70 + bhp out of this little bike with the right set up .

    What other performance mods have you done to her except an RVF exhaust, can, removed snorkel, and assuming you've increased the main jets to cope? 54bhp is an OK reading, but without heavy mods you can get 10hp more than that. Alex

    Different type of dyno, I right there with power, another 2 or so is easy enough to get with a little leaner main jets. Bike is basically stock other than end can, jetting and airbox mod.

    is it better to get this bike while restricted or to get an unrestricted cbr250rr? thanks!

    That depends on how hard you like to ride. I think the unrestricted cbr would be more fun than a restricted NC30. I have unrestricted MC22 and NC30 and the MC22 is a great bike. I get to rev up to 16k on the roads, thats nuts! If your more tame tho get a restricted NC30 as it wont rev nearly as much.

    Nice. Does it take longer for it to get up there though compared to the un-restricted one? I had a shot of one before and I definately noticed the bike being alot slower rev's, maybee was just the bike. There both super cool bikes tho with real race pedigree.

    Daniel Madden I can only assume it does mate as a standard NC30 has about 52bhp. It won't speed up as fast because your getting about half the fuel through the carbs so naturally it will be slower. The fastest i've had is about 102mph, which is about right compared to like a ninja 250 which is slightly faster top end (because its lighter than a nc30). I cannot wait to get these stupid washers out the bike! lol
