CB650 and CB500/550 wheels interchangeable?
« on: October 23, 2009, 12:32:10 PM »
Has anyone tried/does anyone know if CB650 and CB500/550 wheels interchangeable?  Also, can the front forks from a 650 go into a 500/550 frame?  I know the 650 engine fits in the 500 frame fine, just wondering about wheels and forks.  :)

TIA

I did a quick search at work today but I must have used the wrong keywords.  Here are some results I pulled up for anyone interested...
