If by BEST, you mean accurate, and cost is not an object, check out Mark McGrew's M3 Racing CR750 rear racing hub.  Hand made, cast in magnesium this is an exact replica of the Honda CR750 factory rear hub. Complete with backing blate, brake shoes and large sprocket circlip. Only $3,500.00 but you're worth it, right!?  ;)

McGrew's hub has not been available for a couple of years. He was sourcing through Motocicli Veloci. Was discussed here on the forum some time back. Need to have orders for 30 sets to get more made. See:
