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 Husqvarna Motorcycles workshop will be
glad to help.)
Info
A loose spoke can unbalance the wheel and other spokes may loosen within a short period.
If the spokes are too tight, they can break due to local overload.
Check the spoke tension regularly, especially on a new motorcycle.
