Refer to Important Safety Precautions on page23.
Keeping the wheels true (round) and maintaining
correct spoke tension is critical to safe motorcycle
operation. During the first few rides, spokes will
loosen more rapidly due to the initial seating of the
parts. Excessively loose spokes may result in
instability at high speeds and the possible loss of
control. It’s also important that the rim locks are
secure to prevent tire slippage.
1. Inspect the wheel rims (1) and spokes (2) for
damage.
2. Tighten, any loose spokes and rim locks (3) to
the specified torque:
Spokes: 2.7 lbf·ft (3.7 N·m, 0.4 kgf·m)
Rim Locks: 9 lbf·ft (12 N·m, 1.2 kgf·m)
3. Check wheel rim runout. If runout is
noticeable, see an official Honda Service
Manual for inspection instructions.
See an official Honda Service Manual for
inspection information:
1. Check the axle shaft for runout.
2. Check the condition of the wheel bearings.
