Topic: Spoked wheels for my cb with 2008 GSXR front end?

[thipps]

Hey guys I just got a 2008 GSXR front end for my 73 CB500, I have read a couple threads about machining hubs to make them work with the dual disks for the Gixxer front end. Im wondering if anyone sells a ready fit hub for this application or a entire wheel? If not is there someone here that could handle that?

Thanks guys I cant wait to start posting some pictures of the build

How much you get it for if you don't mind

I know there is a guy on the dotheton website that sells them. He has a few of them laying around since he had to buy 10 or so in order for the shop to build his. Name is speedbump. give him a shout.

harley narrow glide wheels can be had for under $150 used if you keep an eye on ebay. you will need 2 spacers for the axle. Theres more details around the forum..

Old thread, I know, but since GSXR swaps are still happening, I'm throwing this out there. A factory Honda front disc brake hub will work with a GSXR front end. Hub is from a 1976 CB750. Rotors can be done a few different ways, this is set up with '99 CBR900RR rotors.

Devin at cognito moto is your guy, he makes everything bolt on for these swaps, including the correct offset triple clamps....

Hey SecondShift,

Not sure if you're still around here, but could you provide a few more details about this setup? Can you use the original speedo drive with this setup?

usually no. it takes a bit of work to use a stock speedo. I just did one over the past few days to retain stock speedo but it's quite a bit of work on the lathe and mill to make a multi-piece spacers setup to relocate the speedo driver while also still having it function.

on top of all the time and labor into making custom axle adapters, rotor spacers/adapters need to be made to get the rotors centered into the calipers, and triple trees need to be made for proper offset/trail. Pretty easy to spend about $500-600 in materials and then all the machining, which is why cognito moto makes what he does for what it costs.
