1 Verify the spoke tension by shaking each spoke with your fingers. Spoke should not be loose from hub. Look for any play between where the spoke flanges attach to the hub. Try to turn the nipple us- ing your fingers. You should not be able to spin any nipple by hand. If one or more spokes is loose, all spokes must be checked and need to be tightened with a spoke wrench.

2Start with spoke closest to the tire valve stem and tighten each nipple, in sequence, exactly 1/4 to 1/2 turn. A single 1/4 to 1/2 turn may not be enough to bring the spokes into proper tension. Continue tightening all spokes no more than 1/2 turn in sequence until all spokes are tight.

Note: More than a 1/2 turn each can cause the wheel to become distorted and wobbly thus perma- nently damaging the wheel.

WARNING: Regularly check the spoke tension and retighten the spokes whenever loose. If you have any doubt, ask an experienced motorcycle or bicycle mechanic to inspect your spokes to determine if the spokes need tightening or adjusting.
