Speaking of rear sprockets, I have a question hopefully some of you can answer.  I just got a 16" rear wheel with a 1978 cb750 hub.  The sprocket is for a 630 chain.  Will a sprocket for a 530 chain from an earlier cb750 bolt to this hub?  Thanks

my 550 had a 17 front from a 750 and a 37 rear.  I am moving up to a 44 rear, from a cbr, this winter. I am also on 17'' rims also cbr.
