Default my sv650 front wheel

after the accident i noticed it was kerbed (well van'd) and ive just replaced the spindle and ive noticed that the wheel doesn't run true it has a slight buckle ££££££ when i say slight i mean about 2mm out where the wheel is kerbed would this be ok or does it need to be perfectly true? Ive got a car alloy that is slightly buckled and ATS weighted the buckle out with wheel balancing weights. anyone know?

agreed but can you live with selling a bike with a potential defect that you have noticed?

Pretty sure that weighting it will sort out the wobble but I reckon your still gonna get excessive tyre wear

There's an acceptable runout in asahitec wheels, I just can't remember what it is More than you'd think, I seem to recall.
