Haven’t had chance to check, got one ordered anyways, if it isn’t the stator chances are I’ll be taking it to garage. Hopeless w electrics tbh so fingers crossed that’s all it is

Have ended up buying a 92 nc29, spent far more time trying to fix it than riding it, for every week it runs well there’s 2 it doesn’t run at all. Scratching head atm seems to stop powering fuel pump and sounds like running on 3 cylinders after having high beams on for long enough, had new fuel pump + reg rec ran fine for a week then went night ride with lights on and runs horrible now. Seems to sort itself after leaving for few mins then goes to shit again once I get on road even without lights on. Honestly no clue haha

honestly its more just the inline 4 sound more than anything, rather listen to that for the 2 years than a vtwin. had the chance to ride a couple i4 600s and liked how they pulled at higher revs, if the 400 is anything like that id be happy.

Ideally looking for something 4 cyl and at least a little sporty. Not too fond of the dukes or sv’s tbh. Xj6 maybe ? Found a nc29 for 2k, looks clean enough. Heavily leaning towards that rn. Going to be stuck on it 2 years and restricted at least a portion of the 2. Don’t want anything too slow haha

Got my eye on a nc29 atm which is what I’m guessing ur referring to? , insurance is still 250/mo but looks like I’ll just need to suck it up no matter the bike I get. Only concern I have with buying a bike this old is part availability, has he had any issues with that?

Been checking insurance prices the past 2 hours, growing closer & closer to mental breakdown by the quote. choices seem to be win the lottery or buy an absolute piece of shite. 19, a2 license 1 year ncd trying to get insured on a restricted bike so may as well be the devil in these companies eyes, looking to buy something like a cbr650r/cb650r/mt07. Received one quote so far, 350/mo on a 650r which was a miracle by the looks of it. already being shafted for 125 insurance @ 200/mo Are these bikes just off the table at this age ? Anyone managed to receive any reasonable quotes on anything like this ? should I just go f**k myself and buy a bus pass ?
