You have to measure it with some precision or you won't get anywhere because there no doubt a spec for how much run out is allowed. The dealer should have done that because they should have the tools to do it within .1 mm. You should be able to get within .5 mm with a cheap caliper and your pointer to measure the max to min of your run out (out of round) of your sprocket. The casting surface is less important than the machining. So if you can determine its 3mm or 1mm or 1.6mm it means a lot more than you can see it wobble a little. It needs to be checked with a precision "indicator" for lateral and radial run out by the dealer, and compared to what's allowed to know how far "out" it is. Then it becomes a warranty issue that Honda can't argue about.
