Welcome to the board Big Ben.  How about an itroduction?  Update your profile with a little info so people know what you ride, work on, and your home town.  May be other members close by you that could help out, or just go for a ride.  You are going to hear a lot about the Search button so it is best to try that first, then ask.  I imagine every question that could be formulated pertaining the SOHC's has already been ask, sometimes many times, so the answers are usually somewhere in the archives.  If you can't find what you want, then ask away.

Good advice to update, I should too. I would pick buchanans for spokes. Good quality. Price will be about 100 but they will work and last.

Got mine from TAS classic motorsports.

http://www.tasclassicmotorsports.com/

They all lace inside the hub.  Not half in half out.  Pros and cons to that.  Also may need to be trimmed once laced (but that's not uncommon).

Customer service has been great for me.

Big Ben is missing four spokes on a 1973 CB750k rear wheel which is a stock hub laced to a 16" rim, he was just wondering if he could replace the four without much trouble.... by the way the I gave him a basket case CB750k and he has it in running condition other than this spoke issue. he might be the nicest guy in my town lol ;D
