I don't know if your bike will have enough power at 4500, may be kind of a struggle going down the highway, especially if there is any wind. I had mine geared at one time to do 4600 at about 65 and the thing didn't like to pull itself down the highway, I live in North Dakota so its all flat land also, almost no hills. My .02

18/43, the 43 rear came on most early DOHC models79-81 or so that would be close although I've seen a few 630's on some...so be sure

What kind of speed/s are you wanting to average on the highway?
I run the stock 18/48, and run a constant 70MPH+ for long distances, and often hit 90MPH when passing ect..I like the 18/48, cause my bike still has alota "take off" at higher speeds..

I am currently looking to change my gearing to get better highway performance. I have a 18/48 on there right now with a 16" rear wheel. any suggestions on where to find sprockets for the cb750? or are sprockets pretty universal?
