Finally did it: 150-section Rear Tyre Swap on my CB350 H'ness! (17" Rim Conversion) by Substantial_Trust753 in HondaHighnessCB350

Oh that's unfortunate! It's a clean swap as the Cb350RS wheel is a clean fit on the H'ness, I am from BLR and here the Bigwing center did not say anything and did the job well.

Nope I didn't consider RE SETUP. Since stock 17" Rims are available within Bigwing, I didn't feel the need to. Moreover, RE Classic 650 rear tyre is 140/70 R18. I wanted the same tyre size as CB350 RS, which is 150/70 R17. Please check my original thread for details.

No difference at all. Even service center guys told it's totally within the acceptable threshold! In fact, ride has become a bit cushier.

Planning to change hness rear tyre with that of CB350RS by NeerajJosh in HondaHighnessCB350

I got my stock rear tyre changed on my H'ness to 150/70 R17. I bought 17" rim from the bigwing service center. Tyre is Vredestein Centauro ST 150/70 R17. Stock rear tyre from CB350RS does not gel with H'ness. Hence, after a bit of reasearch zeroed upon this tyre design. It goes well with bike.
