So my buddy bought a Triumph chopper/bobber roller and the PO used a stock CB550 tree/fork/wheel setup in front and it's actually pretty cool as it is. He's looking to run a 21" (or larger) front wheel with no front brake and I suppose someone out there has chopped/bobbed a CB550 or knows what kind of wheel spacing or requirements he'll need to follow to get a nice cimple clean 21" naked front wheel on there. Heck, I dont even know if the 550/750 wheels are interchangeable... Any ideas? I'm pretty far removed from the chopper/bobber world... I'm a cafe guy myself... I told him to keep the 19" front, run a smaller tire and keep the front brake but he doesnt want to bother with the (quite simple) the hydraulic MC... probably due to aesthetics... but this thing looks fun as hell to ride regardless so I'm just looking to help him out.
