Servicing Your Honda 61
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 19.
Maintenance of spoke tension and wheel trueness
(roundness) is critical to safe motorcycle
operation. During the first 100 miles (150 km),
spokes will loosen more rapidly due to the initial
seating of the parts. Excessively loose spokes
may result in instability at high speeds and the
possible loss of control. It’s also important that
the rim locks are secure to prevent tire slippage.
It is not necessary to remove the wheels to
perform the recommended service in the
Maintenance Schedule. However, information
for wheel removal is provided for emergency
situations.
