Hello folks,, i'm really hoping someone can answer this for me before i go and blow more dough that i shouldn't... i am street trackin a 1970 cb 450 DOHC... and it's coming along fine,, pics to follow... i have access to a very nicely buffed rear hub off of a 500T,, i'm told many of the parts are interchangeable and was wondering if anybody knows for sure if the rear hub will fit reasonable easy.. i am not reinstalling the chain guard and i'm going with aftermarket shocks... if i have to play with the spacers , no big deal but i don't want to have to fab up a ton of parts ,,, i can just reuse the original if need be,, but the 500T is in just such nice shape... nick

The part numbers appear to be the same for the 450 K3 and 500T, so it should substitute ok.
