Post subject: | cr480 front brake hub differences?? |
Searched the forum but no answers. Seems that brakes are the hot topic lately. I am swapping a cr480 front wheel onto my 80 cr250 for the better brakeing. My problem is that i do not know what year the wheel was and i want to order up new brakes for it but the brakes are year specific from 82 to 83. anyone have any ideas on how to determin what year wheel i have? i though that maybe the drum diameter may be different from year to year but i do not know the specs from honda. |

drum diameter is always 130mm. 83 has straight spokes and holes in the larger brakelever. |

my primary lever does not have the lightening holes in it. I have an 82 front wheel. thanks for the help! I am assuming the differences in the pads are the diameter of the pads to make up for reduced travel due to the longer lever arm?? |

The brake backing plate on the 1982 cr480 has the return spring that wraps around the shaft on the actuator arm, and on the 83 it's a coil type that attaches to the tail end of the arm and a tab on the backing plate. I have found that the easiest way to ID the year of the wheel is to check the DOT. month and year stamp on the rim, 9/82 and up is 1983 |

Just wondering I too have an 80cr250 that I just bought. Will the 82 or 3 double leader fit in the stock 80 hub? |
