750K0 rolled rim discussion on SOOC
« on: March 16, 2014, 07:43:13 AM »
Hi,
There's a discussion on the SandcastOnly site on this auction for a 'rolled edge rear rim' a very rare and elusive part

www.http://cb750sandcastonly.com/smf_forum/index.php?topic=1197.0

http://www.ebay.com/itm/HONDA-1969-1970-CB750-CB-750-Sandcast-early-rolled-rear-rim-wheel-Sandcast-/121295733613?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c3dca036d&vxp=mtr


 I am member there even though I am only a humble K0 owner but they warmly welcomed me and they are a really serious bunch of enthusiasts.
Don't want to add a comment to this post as they will probably get offended and shoot me down in flames but my opinion is that you would be dicing with death trying to use something like this, no matter how much expert resto was done on it. Some of the stuff seems madnes to me like fitting parts, which were Honda safety recall items, just for originality. I suppose for a museum piece yes but as a rider, well it sounds wrong to me.

Cheers .... AshD

Lunacy to even attempt to use that.
