I don't know of any wheel that can be swapped out with the CX's... I've seen people take the center of our wheels and make them work with spoked rims somehow, or you could go with the Euro rims if you're just looking for something different



It won't work on just a non-euro, but since you have to fabricate the whole thing, then you can make it fit I'd imagine... I'm quite enthused to see how this turns out, not a huge fan of trikes, but I love these bikes and seeing what can be done to them

I believe that the CX500 wheels work just fine to, I don't usually trust the Ebay or Craigslist people, as half of them don't know what they have, saw a "cx500" tach that redlined at 6 or 7 thousand rpms, when it was supposed to be a CB500, also seen people label a CDI module for an 82 GL650, for one, the GL was always TDI, and the GL650 was ONLY in 83... If I want to check part compatibility I go to http://www.stevenscycle.com/pages/OemParts and find the part, copy the number, open a new tab or window, and click the oem part finder button, and in the top this time rather than bottom, enter Honda for brand, then paste the part number in, and it will say "fit's models". I find it hard to trust someones knowledge when I've seen so many be so inaccurate, it's ridiculous...
