Help with rear Wheel for Hornet 900

Hi all

Can anybody help with this. I'm want to buy another rear wheel for my Hornet 900 that I can fit for track days. Trouble is there are not many for sale at any one time. I have seen some in the U.S. but freight was really expensive to Australia.

Does anybody know if any other Honda wheels will fit up?

Has anyone done a similar project? I'm sick of wearing out my road rubber so quickly (Dunlop Qualifiers)

I asked my Local Honda dealer but they said the part numbers are different from each model even though some parts are shared, so they couldn't be sure. They did say the cush drive and disc was different but that didn't rule out a complete wheel bolting in relatively easily.

CBR Wheels are readily available from most wreckers so if one would fit it would make finding one easy and inexpensive.

Any help appreciated

Cheers Rod.

The CBR900RR rear will bolt right in. . .it will use everything from the 919's (900 Hornet for those outside the U.S.) rear wheel: cush drive, collars (spacers), axle, and rotor.

Here are pics of my 919 with a CBR900RR rear wheel and an F3 front wheel (EZ bolt-on and centering by using both 919 collars and the widest of the F3 collars in the correct positons):

Thanks for your help CBRrr, much appreciated.

By the way your Hornet (aka 919) looks awesome.

The end cans look tough. What brand / model are they?

They are Italian made MIVV X-Cones.

Mivv S.p.a.
