There are other wheel services listed in the link in my signature line. One of them, Lonnie Walker, I don't believe is doing this anymore but has this page:

For some reason, I thought he was located somewhere in the Midwest, but I could be wrong.

While I have no experience with Woody, I have only read excellent reviews of his work.

Believe me, don't let just anyone attempt this procedure. I once worked with a great one years ago who could do this in a short time with very little effort. But . . . it is very difficult for regular folks like me, and there are a lot of folks who "think" they can do it! I am NOT one of them!!

if you're close to Ohio might be worth giving Heindl engineering a call. www.heindlengineering.com/
Dave Clark is an all around great guy and knows his way around BMWs...has been riding/working on them since the 1960s. He's factory trained for service. Not sure if he does wheels, but you might check with him. He's located in the St. Louis area.

Not fixing the problem is what kills you, not the shipping cost. If it is enough of a problem to trouble you, it's a big enough problem to fix correctly. Crashing is usually more expensive than fixing.

Like Paul said, a good dirt bike shop should be able to hook you up. Especially if they cater to racers. They will get the rim running true and have all of the spokes torqued to the same value. Doing it correctly is actually more technical and process generated than most people think.
