How To True a Motorcycle Wheel | Rocky Mountain ATV/MC

Should we not use antisize on each threaded part of the spokes to begin with...?

Why are your tusk brand rims on backorder until 2030?

Thanks for the great videos.
Was able to do mine inside 2hrs and saved cash and learned something new.

Uhhh what if the spoke sticks out the other side of the rim a little

what size are those spokes ??
what gauge is that ??

Really helpful video! Just built two wheels for the first time using this as a guide.

if spoke tension determined a true wheel.. a truing stand would be a useless tool

Cheers buddy, just watched the build video, now watching this one 😊👍👍🛵

Annoying guitar

For a newbie this is an excellent video, clear and concise instructions! Well done guys, thanks!

Would be nice if you demo how you centred the rim on the hub. Do some wheels require a specific offset?

Good video but the music is distracting. We don't need it!

O.K....does that mean the hubs will self center when all spokes are at same or approx tension and they have approx same note when struck with wrench.I had a dual sport wheel laced for me and tire rubs on one fork,when tapping spokes with a screw driver noticed spokes on opposite side of rub were noticeably lower note.

The music is obnoxious and very difficult for people with ADHD when it comes to focusing on what there is to do 👌

I still come back to this video as a refresher to this day. I’ve built 6 excel wheels just reminding myself of the basics thanks to RMATV and they’ve all been bullet proof.

Thank you 🙏🙏

Not everyone is going to have a trueing stand

Such a solid video!

Rocky Mtn Atv is awesome. I work at a dealership and I still find myself buying a fair amount of items from rocky Mt

Hi when you start with the wheel slighly loose and go round each spoke 1/4 turn until they seat does that mean continue turning on the seated aswell as slightly loose not seated spokes? Or does it mean every one until all seated regardless of Whether some are already seated and getting tighter?? Really appreciate your help in this, cheers Simon.

No mension of offset?

You leave sprocket and rotors on when truing?

What torque do you set the torque wrench to?

I wish I could rent one of those stands you used

Torque spec mentioned several times but no indication or recommendation on what the specification is or where to find it if the manufacturer doesn’t provide it

Wow fair bit of work on two wheels , spose that’s one of the reasons why wheels are not cheap

This is all new to me, every street bike I own has mag wheels. I'm researching this because I laid down my wife's Chinese dirt bike and broke 9 spokes. She won't let me live it down till I fix/replace the rear wheel.

is there a way to do it even if the spokes stripped

Why does he call it a ‘whirrel’ and not a wheel

A lot of steps are missing. Did you zero the wheel first? Which spokes are supposed to be tightened for lateral movement? Lateral movement, outer spokes, radial movement. Inner spokes.
L.O.R.I.
Its first grade spongebob!

Not sure, but ain't u supposed to measure where the hub sits or doesn't it matter ?

Would it be necessary to loosen all spokes on a stubborn slightly used wheel to get it back to true?

What is the torque spec for Tusk spokes. Do I just follow my manual. That's basically 32 in/lbs.

Nah ill just pay someone to do it, easier

This is so complicated I rather give tire to someone and pay lmao.

Do you true with the wheel bearings in? Does it matter? Thanks!

So what's the point of torquing each spoke to spec after you made these adjustments? I dont get it

Hi, I’m intending to get a Tusk torque spoke wrench to have a go at D.I.Y. Could you advice what’s the force advisable for ex; supermoto, dirt bike and street bike. I was told that 45-48 pound of force is sufficient.

Thanks for the vid guys, I just took the vibe out of my sporty bars 😁

Maybe I missed it, but what's the torque spec on the niples?

Strange the BMW manual says tighen all spokes to 6nm!

Hi there,do u fix motorcycle wheels with spokes?

Excellent video! Thanks!😃
What are some typical torque values for ADV motorcycle wheels?

Nice tutorial thank you very much.

thank you so much for the video totally confused as shit till I found this video, another reason buy all my stuff from you guys so much good info ty

How do you true up a wheel that needs to have an offset (dishing)? For example, the XR250 front wheel.

Hey can you tell me how long it should take to do this job?
