ping the wheels true (round) and
maintaining correct spoke tension is critical
to safe motorcycle operation.
During the first 600 miles (1,000 km), spokes
will loosen more rapidly due to the initial
seating of the parts. Excessively loose spokes
may result in instability at high speeds and
possible loss of control.
It is not necessary to remove the wheels to
perform the recommended service in the
Maintenance Schedule. However,
information for wheel removal is provided
for emergency situations. 2 P. 82

Inspect the wheel rims and spokes for

appears to “wobble.” If it does, the rim is
out of round or not “true.” If the wobble
is noticeable, see your dealer for
