Checking the spoke tension
Warning
Danger of accidents
Instable handling due to incorrect spoke tension.
–
Ensure that the spoke tension is correct.
Info
A loose spoke causes wheel imbalance and rapidly leads to more loose spokes.
If the spokes are too tight, they can break due to local overload.
Check the spoke tension regularly, especially on a new motorcycle.

–
Briefly strike each spoke with a screwdriver blade.
Info
The frequency of the tone is a function of the spoke length and spoke diam-
eter.
If you hear different tone frequencies from individual spokes of the same
length and thickness, this is an indication of different spoke tensions.
You should hear a high note.
» If the spoke tensions differ:
–
Correct the spoke tension.
