CM 450 Wheels

Any of you gents think that a set of 350 wheels would fit under and CM450 and do the job. I bough a CM today just to ride this summer and was thinking of doing a wheel swap (I have painted the 350 wheels and have a new set of rubber).... I'm hoping I can squeeze that rear wheel in. Any other issues?

If it matters the CM450 is a 1983. CL350 from 1970.

jeffreyhardy, The CM450 has a 16" rear rim, the 350 has 18" rim, but the outside diameter of the tire is the same, so you don't have a problem with fender clearance. Your only problem may be axle spacers, axle diameter and a different number of teeth on the rear sprocket .

A CM450 and CB360 both have a rear axle diameter of 20mm, but I don't see a listing for a 350.
The 450 may have 20 more horsepower than the 350, so watch for broken spokes! My CM450 has broken a few!
