Spoke wheel hub difference between models was created by damarble
So long story short, I need spare front hub with the same dimentions as my 750 hub for mocking up my new USD front end without tearing apart the 750 which I ride every day.
The microfiche are no help, they list a whole assembly for the front hubs, no separate part number for just the chunk the spokes lace to. From what I'm reading any 80+ 650,750 or 1000 with spoke wheels may share the same hub. The seem to share the same spacers, speedo drive and axle at least. A confirmation would be helpful before I lay down cash.

Correct, 4 bolts. So the 400s through the 1000s share the same hub, how about that.

I am looking for A SET OF 18" front spokes for this wheel.
I don't want to pay $110 for buchannon's. Want cheaper steel plated spokes?

My spokes are actually pretty decent, we don't have much of a corrosion problem here and the PO took great care of it. If anything I was tossing around the idea of black or gold paint.
