The front spoke set lists the stock 19-inch CB500K front wheel. The rear set lists the stock 18-inch CB500K rear wheel. Compare the hub and installed rim combination before ordering; matching a general spoke count or motorcycle model does not make a front spoke pack a replacement for the rear.
The rear pack supplies forty silver spokes and forty gold-colored nipples for the stock 18-inch rear wheel. The front pack is specified for the stock 19-inch front wheel. Wheel-drive dampers, bearing retainers and bearings are separate products, and engine primary-drive rubbers serve the engine drive assembly rather than the wheel.
No. The rear set is for the stock 18-inch CB500K wheel, and hub dimensions, spoke angles and lengths can differ after a conversion. Check the stock hub arrangement and rim drilling before selecting that pack.
The stock 19-inch front pack has 40 cadmium-plated steel spokes with silver-colored nipples. The stock 18-inch rear pack has 40 silver spokes and 40 gold-colored nipples. Choose by wheel position as well as finish.
The set supplies four A-type and four B-type dampers. Check sprocket-carrier play, carrier and wheel bearings, seals, chain and sprockets; wear in the metal hub or carrier can require attention beyond a fresh rubber set.
