Where to get spokes?
« on: November 24, 2019, 02:49:21 AM »
Where does one get the correct replacement spokes that have the correct width as the oem ones with the yellow nuts? the front spokes seem to be the same on the cb750 and cb500. There seems to be alot of options but some of them seem to not either have the yellow nuts and to be of a thicker type.

My CB750 K2 has yellow nipples from  them.
 As a Jap chick should have?  ;)

Buchanon’s Stainless Steel spokes and nipples are an investment you will not regret.

I picked up a set for my 550F from vintagecb750.com.  Its for a bike I'll be selling so could not justify the higher investment of Buchanans.  Yellow nipples for the rear and chrome for the front.  Whatever...its for a brat kinda build.  Will only see the difference when the bike is sitting still.
