Bert,
If you haven’t already, come Monday, or if their hours include Saturdays, give them a call and ask about the rim compatibility and return policy. Too bad there weren’t any reviews.

Did you ask Ed his opinion on this supplier?

On their site,you can see these rims(cheaper by the way) and its not the same description!?
Not a word about cb77,so these rims are not made for our bikes but for cb350,400,450....

So,i wont take a chance...

For now, my only option is david silver spare or Buchanan but much more expensive.

Sorry but,who is Ed ?

Lm or loud mouse. He’s a Honda 305 guru and knows more about these bikes than most of us ever will. Super nice guy too. Literally knows this bike inside and out at the spec level.

Send Lm a PM and I’m sure he would be willing to talk over the phone and give you his advice

Thanks Merz!
I posted Ed’s contact for Bert on the 750Four site, but maybe between the two sites it got missed.

For those who are in the same boat as me,forget david silver spare option. A send a couples of emails to them and they said their rims that they want so sell me are the same they sell for the cb360...


Same thing for the rims at 4into1....

Go with Buchanan, great quality and service. You'll get the correct pieces the first time. Regards, Chase
