Third Times a Charm CB175

So we are thinking 240cc, big valves 180 degree crank, gear drive cams and 6 speed for this one? Or am I just projecting again?
18 are the way to go. We have a CB450 hub and alloy rim so that must be 40 hole. Can't remember where it came from though. CB160 and CB77 are 36 hole IIRC. Or have I built too many Yamaha TZ and GT750 Suzuki 36 hole wheels and lost track of what fits what?
Well we like your projections! I like the TZ, TD, hub but they are unobtanium $$$
The triumph hub if it is 8" is suppose to be better on the BEC than the cb450 hub. However it weighs a TON! Now we married the cb450 brake to a 36 hole cb77 hub on Victoria and it is phenomenal! We used the 19 rear and 18 front on Victoria.
However this build has a suitor waiting in the wings and he is also projecting. So we are giving him his options. He is sending us Ceriani 32 mm forks and triple.
Speaking of 6 speed the cb400 hawk has a six speed in it. Compatible with 175???
