I've got a pair of original Henry Abe (H.A. Industry) wheels off a 1971 CB750K that I'm looking to sell.
The front is a 19" and the rear is an 18". They both look to be in very good shape with minor corrosion overall.
For consideration, in this eBay auction link a NOS pair of HAs sold for $1400 USD , and the rear was only a 16", which is less desirable for a cafe racer:

If you know what you're looking at, you know what they're worth.
I'm in BC, Canada and open to serious offers. Hoping to get $1200, we'll see what happens.
There are a few listed on ebay from 250 a rim to 1000 for a set. I wish i could search sold items. I bet if you knocked that oxidation off and took some good pictures you could get some hits. Good luck whale hunting and such

Wonder if there are actually more then one person that will pay more then a grand.....
Very often after something goes for big money on ebay, everyone that has the same thing goes out and tries to sell it for the same money.....and it doesnt happen.
all those old school cast ali wheels are like filling yer tires with lead,handling killers all, just for show
now some magnesium morris and then you got sumthin' they are actiually pretty decent light
I appreciate you guys trying to be diplomatic in your comments. I realize the price I mentioned is quite high. Ya can't fault a guy for hoping to get top dollar.
Are they rare? Yes. Do alot of people want to pay alot for them? No. I get that and it's fair to say.
That said, if this forum allows it, I'm open to offers. At the very least it lets me know what the average interested guy is really willing to buy them for.
Tbh, at this point I am still tossing around the idea of running them unless I can get a decent enough chunk of cash that would justify letting them go. And my current build could use the funds.
Got a rough shipping quote for a guy in TN. $150 with FedEx, 7 business days. Cheaper than I expected. That's with a 24" x 24" x 12" box weighing 50 lbs.
