CB250 Wheels onto CB350F ?
« on: March 21, 2012, 03:40:37 PM »
Has anyone tried this one? The Cb250 has a 33mm fork the same as the 350. Just wondering if anyone has tried this and if it worked alright?

Fairly common conversion in England, where the 250's were common. I can probably find some pictures if you want to ping me off list.

CB250 Wheels onto CB350F ?

That would be gold mate.

I've got the front end on there, all of the dimensions seem identical. 33mm forks, 172mm width.

The back wheel is on also, but the rear axle is too long. Wondering if the axle is the same diameter as the 350f. Then I could just use one of them as a straight swap. At least I hope so anyway.

Some pics would be great. This is how mine is looking so far.

Yeah. Off a mates CB250. Not too familiar with the 250's. Think it's a '78 model? Is that a 250N?

I'm most familiar with the early 70's CB350's w/ the spoked wheels..those Comstar wheels look nice;they remind me a lot of the Early years Honda Hawk,1980' or so  :).
