Maintenance
Wheel Spokes
Inspect both wheels for loose, bent, broken or missing
spokes (if equipped). To identify loose spokes, grasp each
spoke and try to move it side to side or up and down. All
spokes should be equally tight and have the same amount of
flex. Tighten loose spokes and replace bent, broken or
missing spokes (see an authorized dealer).
WARNING! Spokes adjusted or replaced improperly could distort
the wheel, make the motorcycle difficult to handle, and cause loss of
control.

Wheel Inspection

Inspect both wheels for cracks or damage and replace
damaged wheels promptly. Do not operate the motorcycle if
wheels are damaged or cracked. See the INDIAN
MOTORCYCLE Service Manual or an authorized INDIAN
MOTORCYCLE dealer.

Wheel Alignment

Inspect rear wheel alignment at regular service intervals,
whenever the rear wheel is removed and when the rear
drive belt is adjusted. Please see your dealer for this
service.
