14.7 Checking spoke tension
Warning
Danger of accidents Incorrectly tensioned spokes impair the handling characteristic and result in secondary damage.
The spokes break due to being overloaded if they are too tightly tensioned. If the tension in the spokes is too low, then lateral
and radial run-out will form in the wheel. Other spokes will become looser as a result.
–
Check spoke tension regularly, and in particular on a new vehicle. (Your authorized KTM workshop will be glad to help.)

–
Strike each spoke briefly using a screwdriver blade.
Info
The frequency of the sound depends on the spoke length and spoke diame-
ter.
If you hear different tone frequencies from different spokes of equal length
and diameter, this is an indication of different spoke tensions.
You should hear a high note.
» If the spoke tension differs:
–
Correct the spoke tension.
–
Check the spoke torque.
