Motorcycle Wheel Truing, TruSpoke, BMW R1250GS

This was a tough task. BMW R1250GS rear wheel had a lateral of 3.7mm. According to BMW, this is a new wheel. So I ordered a replacement from Woody's in Colorado.

Everywhere I read said the rim was too far gone. That BMW wheels are too tough to straighten. Just leave it to the professionals. Well, I'm a curious person and like a challenge. So off we went.

In this video I'm using the TruSpoke tool to set the initial tightening of the spokes. I purchased this tool myself and am not sponsored or have any association with them.

Please note: I AM NOT A PRO! I've never worked on a rim before. There are many mistakes in this video. This is NOT an instructional video.
