Question:

how to true a laced wheel?

how do you true a spoked wheel for motorcycle?

Answer:

This is not a job for a home mechanic. A bicycle wheel(this is the bicycling section by the way) can be trued by alternately tightening and loosening spokes. It would work the same way with a motorcycle wheel if you have the right tools. But motorcycles go much faster than bicycles, so wheel balance and spoke tension are more critical. I build bicycle wheels all the time, just built 3 last week, but I wouldn't attempt to true a motorcycle wheel myself.
