Front wheel dent
#7
I bought another wheel second hand for my ducati 916. rode it back from italy with a dented rim after hitting a pot hole at speed on the motor way. It was so bad i could see the bottom of the tyre rim.

While at the tyre shop. I borrowed a mallet and gently hit it. There was the chance it would crack or brake but I took that chance. I made it a bit more round and left it.

It was on my mind after that it could be weak so i replaced it when i got back home to the uk after a 1200 mile journey.

Up to you as to what to do next.
