Want to Buy- Spoke wheel hubs for 1981 CB750

Duvel
Hi,

I just bought a really nice 1981 CB750C. I’m wanting to put spoked wheels on it. I’m looking for a set of front and rear hubs that fit this bike. For the front, something from a 79-83 cb750k is an easy fit I think and the same years for the rear. Someone can correct me if I’m wrong. Still learning and gathering goodies.

Hey Cody
You can use a rear wheel from any CB750 69-83. However, if you use one from 69-76 you will need to use the later model cush drive. On the front wheel, you will only be able to use one of your brake discs. This will really reduce your braking power. You should use the "K" model forks. That way you could use the larger single disc brake from the "K" model.
I have a really nice set of wheels off an 81 "K" model I would be willing to sell. I would take $75.00 plus shipping.

Hey Tools,

Apologies, for the delayed reply. My email placed the notification in my junk mails

Thank you for the informative post. How far away are you from Joplin, MO? I’m definitely interested in the wheels. Good idea on the “K” forks. I’ll look for a set of those.

Thanks!
Cody

I am in Kansas City, MO. I might have a set of "K" forks and brake caliper. I would have to look for them.
 I have a customer that lives in AR, just south of Joplin, that might be willing to take the wheels with him when he comes to pick up his CBX.
