Broken Spokes
Did some "bobber style" custom work on a 2002 HD FXST Softail Std. ...Put a new, narrow (swingarm mounted) rear fender and a new 18 inch narrow rear chrome laced wheel. One day while cleaning rear wheel I found 3 broken spokes! (Out of warranty, of course)!!
...Ordered a new one, same brand...and, again, while cleaning rear wheel found a (one) broken spoke!!
Anyone ever heard of this before?.....Am I doing something wrong or are these bad wheels or improperly laced or improperly balanced?? .....(has no rear wobble at all)
.....Don't know what to do at this point!!
Thanks in advance for some advice on this!
