Bumping a thread back from the dead.. Will any of these work? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-1978-CB-400-Hondamatic-A-CB400-rear-Wheel-Rim-Comstar-1-85x18-/161760610980?hash=item25a9af0aa4:g:0sAAAOSw-vlVoT5H&vxp=mtr...

Go with LEDs with a wide spread angle.. It will eliminate the hot spots and give a more evenly lit look.

So I was thinking about possibly swapping out the rear 16" wheel on my 78 CB400 tii with an 18" to have it match up to the front. I found out that some bikes (not sure which though) had an 18" rear Comstar on the rear. Does anyone know from which bikes this swap is possible from? I found this...

The rear looks to be shaft driven so I don't think it'll work. Plus big $$$$

Can anybody confirm? Is this something that can be done?

Looking at possibly ditching the Comstars on my Hawk II in the future.. What are my least headachy options?

Good lord that's amazing!

They're removable though and I don't mind having holes, I just don't want the molded in mounts getting in the way and whatnot.

back from the dead bump.. Could someone measure and give me the dimensions of their 360 aluminum clamp please?

Great, thanks. I was thinking of using 1/4" I just wanted to confirm. I'd rather be a couple grams heavier and not have anything break 8)

I'm about to jump on redoing the rear end on my 78 Hawk II.. what would be a recommended thickness for the steel plate used for the new rear shock mounts?

Still looking for an answer here..

As far as I know they came with both a stamped steel (which I have) or an aluminum one depending on the model variation. Or I might be wrong and searching for something doesn't even exist??

Haha awesome keep em coming!

Do you have the aluminum top triple clamp?
