Dresda Honda CB750 (Identification needed)

<< < (7/9) > >>

K2-K6:
Quite alot of the pictures of the japauto bikes show this type of front wheel paired with a standdard looking cb750 spoke and drum rear setup. as yours appears to have a non std (dresda) bracket for the master cylinder it would suggest it's been modded to use an obvious match in wheel terms of another front wheel.

Endurance stuff of that period quite often had some unique sprocket carriers to give a quick release wheel with the chain and sprocket left on the swingarm to speed things up, could this be a possibility?

Eric Frith:
If I were to revert back to wire spokes, can anyone tell me what hubs are likely to be a good choice to use ? (so I can look out for some auto jumble stuff)

Thanks

rs_pete:
CB750 would be the obvious reply!
From what I remember Triumph were popular for rear disc and Locheed conversions. Though I think the spacing on most Honda wheels of the time made them pretty interchangeable so other Hondas than CB750 SOHC.
You already have the brakes so unless you were going all out for a front end upgrade, i.e. Ceriani or Metal Profile forks with Lockheed setup, sticking with Honda would give you the least issues.

Bryanj:
Front 500/550/500twin/750 all same, rear realy 750 and if you want disc F1

Eric Frith:
Thanks all, most helpful.
