Front wheel ID help!!!!

[MB]

So, I ordered brake shoes for my CL 450. They didn't fit. I notices that there were "washers as spacers" on the wheel, deduced it was from a CL350 72" on looks mainly. That and theres not any other 19" wheels that fit description from that period.
Ordered the 350 shoes.
They don't fit. If you look at the brake diagram they don't have that 2nd round nub, used to secure the shoe.
I was almost certain this was a 72CL350 wheel and drum.
What are my other options?
I thought that all the 450s shares the same brake up until 74 under which logic the shoes I got should fit? All opinions welcomed. I wanna ride dammit!
Thanks
Mike

pictures?

Yeah forgot about that

I should mention that the eBay auction I got the 450 shoes from listed them as fitting all cl450s 68-74. Just checked the fiche for those years, thy actually changed the shoes so I could have an earlier 450 rim I guess, but how to tell what shoes are correct?

AFAIK all late model CL450s used the same drum brake as the CB of the same era.

The actuating arms look like CB72 cast/forged arms so that is probably from a 450 and not from a CB/CL350 which had stamped & welded arms.

I don't recognize that speedo drive in the hub though. CB77 & 450 had a separate gearbox IIRC. What is the drum diameter in MM?

 

[MB]

The plate itself is 200mm. The internal diameter where the shoe would end is 190mm

Also I think the cb at that point was disc.

Doesn't look like 450 wheel I have, speedo drive is not on brake plate but separate on right side
Just measured across shoes, 197mm (used)
How many spoke holes on hub?
Clean brake plate and hub look for manufacturer marks.
It may not be a Honda wheel at all?

See if it matches any diameter/shoe width on Michael Moore's site

Looks like Bridestone 350, probably worth more than a CB/CL 450 wheel
