So it looks like my rear rim is warped...you can see it has a slight wobble when you run it on the center stand. I never hit anything with it....other that the usual pothole...certainly nothing that should have bent it....The reason more likely was me....torque the spokes...pretty sure I smurfed it up. Over tighted some for about a minute before I realized I had the torque wrench set wrong....reset them right away but I guess the damage was done I don't have acces to a dial indicator to check the actual run out on it.
How much damage will I do to the rear bearings and final drive if I run it for a while like this??
I can't feel it when I ride, at any speed...and the brake rotor looks to run true...
I have a trip coming up in a few weeks and doubt I will be able to get it fixed by then short of replacing the rim.
So can these be straightened or am I looking at a new $400 rim?? There is an independent shop in town I may ask them. Or I can go the dealer route and play dumb and hopefully get it warrantied.
Thanks
