Topic: Can't find info on how to run a modern 17" rear wheel and brake on '76 750F

[jmardy]

I've searched and can't find the info.
I want to run a modern wheel and rear brake on my project.
Something like a CBR250R or CBR600F2/3 wheel.
I'm fine changing the swingarm as well if needed but just can't find definitive info.
Apologies if it's out there and I didn't find it.

I don't think there is any real good, close to bolt on way...not sure how wide cbr250 wheel is but might be a good route.  The main problem is anything wider than around 150  tire is gonna require the chain line to move outboard.

1980's Suzuki swingarm is supposed to be near bolt in but they are not easily or cheaply had these days.

maybe check out some of the cafe racer sites, they're fond of stuffing things into places they weren't meant to be in, and then there's the things they do to poor unfortunate bikes too

And many times people collect all the parts but quickly get overwhelmed and sell off the project and/or the parts. I had a Suzuki aluminum swingarm but the problem was that it was attached to a great running and riding bike.

I had an Aprilia RS250 wheel lying around and the axle size is exactly the same. It's runs a 150 tire so I migtht be able to make it work. Just need to find a rear brake carrier and sprocket carrier:
