No problem Slow. The spokes I have are actually the original wheels off my '76F.All the SOHC's willhold the same wheel.I understand the rear is a bolt-on between the SOHC & DOHC. The front is supposed to need spacers made up. I have no personal experience,though. We'll see if they work,then I'll get you some good pics.They are nice,but not perfect.Then we'll go from there.I'm not looking to get rich off these wheels,you know.

Question: The rear axle on a CB is 20mm o.d. . My swing arm is 11 1/2 wide,so a stock axle wont reach across.Does a GL have a wider swingarm?I can get an axle made,but it would be great to find a 20mm axle that will just work.

The axle of a ZX6 is on 16mm.I'm going to have to machine out the ears to hold the 20mm.Seems like a better idea than running a bunch of bushings.Not a big deal.

I wonder if a length of grade 8 20mm all thread would do the trick? What do y'all think?

 If you know of anything that might fit shout at me,please!Thanks
