Coppertop1234:
Advice please

I am thinking of using Zinc plated spokes with stainless ferrels on the re chromed rim . Any views?

Are the spokes for the K series the same as the ones for the F1?

Cheers

Hi Keith as the spokes on my F1 and two previous Honda 750's went rusty I opted for stainless spokes on my F1 when the wheels were rebuilt, probably not for the purists though.

I just bought new after sale spokes but they didn't fit on that KO rim.

So that's what I did on my current project: re- zink plated the old spokes on a re-chromed rim and mounted with new yellow nipples.

Stainless sounds good Dennis where did you get them from ?

Zinc also look good on photos  Sgt,Finback so don't mind either way

Cheers
