Run-out rims/adjusting spokes

Hi there!

The rims on my 74 DT360A unfortunately have quite some lateral and vertical runout. I wasn’t able to measure it yet, but at least at the front it‘s easily visible, that it exceeds the 2mm limit. While driving on a smooth road at around 40mph, the vibrations get pretty intense. I‘m not sure if it‘s the spokes or the rim itself.

I don’t have much experience with spoke rims, I remember to have read somewhere that you should avoid adjusting/retightening spokes that old. What’s your opinion on that? Does someone know the exact length of the rear (18“) and front (21“) spokes or where to get them? Maybe some newer models used the same length.

Hello Leon


I think it's ok to adjust and true the original wheel spokes, but knowing that if you fail to improve the runout, then you may have to go shopping for a new set. Afterall, why not try if it's already bad?

If you need help, there are "How To" video's on the internet


The FRONT WHEEL has two different spoke "head angles" ... (18 Inner & 18 Outer) ... but they are all the same length . . . 229mm.

I have the front spoke set for $120. + shipping . . . See picture below:


***


The BACK WHEEL has two different length spokes (18 Inner & 18 Outer), and it also has two different "head angles". This means that there are four different spokes used on the back wheel.

9 short Inner spokes, & 9 short outer spokes = for right / brake side

9 long inner spokes, & 9 long outer spokes = for left / sprocket side

Unfortunately, I don't have this rear set . . . and I don't have the measurements either


NOTE: There's one rear set currently on eBay USA, but very expensive . . . eBay item number: 156337303624

Hi there! Can anybody send me pictures + metrics of the joint, air cleaner (445-14453-00)?

There was none with my DT 360 and I have a new Mikuni carb with other metrics on the air-side. I have to print a special joint for my needs :) but no idea what lenght.....

Thx!

That just goes to show, that with todays technology and tools, almost anything can be accomplished if a person has the desire to see it through to the end.
