Motorcycle noob here, please bare with me
I want a wider rear rim/tire...or as wide as I can get it so that it fits the stock swingarm. I've been looking at Buchanan's Sun Rims for sizes and spokes etc. The current rim is 19, both front and back.
Now judging by the condition of my current rear hub and sprocket, it seems to be in pretty decent condition. Just need to clean it off a little bit.
So i'm thinking a 3.50 x 16 inch rim for the rear (or would a 4.25 x 16 fit?), and a 2.15 x 16 rim for the front. The spokes on Buchanan's website say, for the rear drum or disk:
KHON202SS HONDA CB750 REAR DRUM or DISC to (3.0)x16" HD DP D/C RIM - S/S
KHON202SZ HONDA CB750 REAR DRUM or DISC to (3.0)x16" HD DP D/C RIM - S/Z
KHON202C HONDA CB750 REAR DRUM or DISC to (3.0)x16" HD DP D/C RIM - C
So i'm not really sure which spoke kit to order?
Now for tires...I'm confused. I want to get Michelin's road pilot 3 tires but i'm not sure which set to order for the front and rear wheels. since the only size they hare for the rear tire is 17 inch.
Please help!
