looking for 77-78 CB550 rear wheel 1.85X18 CANADA!!!
« on: May 03, 2010, 06:22:17 PM »
I'm looking for a rear wheel for my 78 cb550 K4.  The dimensions are 1.85X18 the hub is cracked on mine. It is important that the hub isn't cracked on the one i'm looking for!!

I am also looking for the bottom right pipe.

I'd prefer to find it in Canada, to avoid US customs

have 78 K hub & backing plate, no rim.  You can see it in my build post being used to mockup the SBK swing arm mod.  Purchased a 750F rear disk assembly for next build, so no longer required.

You can also try Zdeno Cycle in Kitchener (www.zdenocycle.ca). They have around a dozen or so 77/78 550s in the yard, and there's a good chance that that wheel can be found on some other models too. Not sure though.

I don't have any experience ordering online since they're in town, but definitely worth a shot.
