--- Quote from: AshimotoK0 on September 03, 2023, 10:40:38 AM ---I am currently fitting rebuilt wheels to my '75 400/4 that I restored in 1986 !
I couldn't find NOS DID rims in '86 so I used Suzuki Takasago rims (bought from Queens Park Motors
Oddjobb :) ) and non-standard un-butted spokes. Anyway, with eBay and internet, (not around in the mid '80s ! ) I have just rebuilt replacement wheels with the proper period DID non-side-scripted rims and the correct Honda spokes.
I noticed that my Aug 1975 bike had a hex headed rear wheel spindle fitted and it's not correct as it should be the -286- part ..like the CB250K , although I believe it was BZP finish on the CB400F, not chromed. Also I noticed that among my collection of front wheel spindles, some have hollowed ends and some are solid. I think the '75 should have the solid end, BZP finished version. Any ideas? I think my original rear spindle must have been from a late F2 model or perhaps a CJ250T.

Going back to spindles. I have a CB550 F1 / F2 with a hex head and the flanged nut. Everywhere i have looked for the part number it comes up with 42301-300-020 which is from the 750 :o

Perhaps these are the ones on the 400F2 and later models 550/750's respectively Graham?

Every 550 F1/F2 i have owned has had the hex head rear wheel spindle. The shaft is too thick for a 400/4.
Not sure about if the late 750's shared the same shaft mate.
