Hi guys,
I’ve just singed up in hope that someone might have the knowledge about the rear wheel of an RT125D.
I dug up form the service manual the simptoms of what might cause the rear wheel to wobble. It sepecified that the rear rim might be distorted.
So i check the rim and it moves severly right and left. I’ve noticed that the spokes were moving as well.
Now my question is :
-Do i have to change the rear rim spokes? And so what dimentions do i need.
-Do i have to change the whole rim?
Thank you.

Hey,
Sorry I didn’t reply sooner.   I’d say at least have you checked 2 things first >?:
- Wheel bearings (both sides) – They could be shot past their old age or need inspecting
- Swingarm spacers & bearings – Was the swingarm ever off the frame >?
Usually around 20k (in my opinion) is a good rule to check swingarm reed bearings.
