Bonneville America Forums Forums Technical Forums Custom Corner Truing / Re-lacing Wheels

I have done 3 wheels now for my speedmaster. Each time, I de-laced and re-laced the rim/hub. Re-lacing is kind of like a simple puzzle, once you figure out the pattern it is easy. My first two attempts at truing was done by a so-called British bike expert working out of his garage. His "shop" had a dozen different British bikes, in various states of repair. So I thought it was a safe bet. Ended up having to trouble shoot various issues on the bike that where related to rim being not quite true and not properly balanced. Over time I ended up taking all three wheels to the local Harley/Triumph shop and having them true/balance the wheels. Since then, zero wheel related issues.
Did I happen to mention this same clown scratched up my powder coat, while mounting the tire, on the first front rim?
