RE: checking spokes
You only tighten them if they are loose....
 \\;
You determine loose by the sound that they make.....
 \\;
Dull ting is loose, sharp ping is tight/right....
 \\;
Please refer to the service manual for this procedure, because if you tighten too many in one specific area, or overtighten 1, you have to ensure that the opposite spoke has the same tension...
 \\;
Improper tensioning of spokes will rack a wheel as quick as a curb hit or pothole....
