I am going with the stock rear wheel and a Rebel front. That big stupid Ducati wheel is more trouble than it is worth.

Gammaflat may still have the 2 cast-style "snowflake" wheels he took off a K7. I can bug him if you're interested in them, he's been off these forums for a while, but we still email.

Hondaman! Don’t worry about it. This setup should be fine. I do love the snowflakes though.

Very rough mock-up. Everything just held in place. I want to do one of those cafe loops that all the kids are hacking about.

Another day, another rear wheel. I really like the lip of this Hondamatic DID wheel. Nice odd combo or too much?

Well boys….I picked up this parts bike today. What are the chances of that from wheel setup, matching the one I picked off eBay??! Nuts. Four hours of driving. My wife and neighbors think I am nuts. I just keep telling them that they have no idea what they are looking at. 1976 Cb750F!!!! Let’s goooooo!

I believe I bought a seat and tank for my K8 from him if it's the same member, hasn't logged in since sometime in 2022... Glad to hear he's still with us.
