NC35 (re)build thread - tis the season for 400cc greybikes

...
We revel in the “Aha,” moment around here. A guy thinks his bike is running great because he doesn't have a baseline to compare with. But when the carbs go back on he says “So THIS is what it's supposed to feel like.” Zoom.

The work you did on this bike is absolutely incredible. I did a session on the bike and never noticed or even thought about the fueling until TNW asked about it between sessions. Power is proportional to revs & throttle; nothing noticeable outside that.
 
There you go, damning me with faint praise.

Seriously though, glad you're having a good go of it.

You met Mossy! Great guy, eh? I get such a (vicarious) kick watching his cam vids.

He's the sole reason I'm riding what I am these days.

I told him I was downsizing from the VF1000 and was torn between the sv650, ninja 650, and the duc 690.

He said, "get a shiver", which was sort of a non sequitur because I'd never heard of the aprilia sl750 'shiver' until that moment. As fortune would have it there was an '08 in sacto with only 4k and a week later I knew why he thinks so highly of it. THANKS MOSSY!

do tell!!!

looks like a position sensor and some other bits. got the cable pulls on the far side so its not a cut down inline 4 i'm guessing.

what is it!!!!
 
I guess it could be from any modern parallel twins with the right spacing, new CBR500R maybe? Finding an appropriate computer might be more tricky I'd think.
 
Really? I thought some fo the alter ones were fuel injected. Shame a little 400 with fi would be pretty dope. Probably make a tiny bit more torque too.
