V4 Precision in a Lightweight Package
Today we have a well-balanced, rider-focused rare sportbike that doesn’t try too hard and doesn’t need to. Built for the Japanese domestic market, the NC35 is powered by a 400cc V4 with gear-driven cams and a character all its own. It’s considered one of the best-handling middleweights of its time and a joy to ride.
Donn shared his thoughts back in 2019, “Honda’s second generation small V-4 took the successes of the VFR-400R / NC30 and modernized them for the late 1990’s. Having never been sold new here, all are gray market imports with metric speedos.
Sticking with the winning formula, Honda made evolutionary changes for the NC35’s 1994 introduction. Carburettors were updated to a 30mm semi-flatslide design, with velocity stacks aimed down the intake. Rake and trail were unchanged but the frame was re-designed. Inverted forks were installed, and the single-sided swingarm recieved a major update. 17″ wheels are found front and rear, easing tire choices for the future. The styling templates the iconic RC45, and the riding position is more relaxed than some other small sports.”
$10,000 for 10k miles was the asking price back in 2019. What will this one go for?

Good luck to the buyer and seller!
