I just watched the videos a couple times, then took a piece of paper and held it over the playing video so I was only seeing the sprocket, then so I was only seeing the very edge of the rim. When viewed that way, they appear to be running true. I think the casting/machining of the rest of the rim combined with some uneven painting perhaps is off a bit but, the the important parts seem to be running true.
Only one way to be sure, have it measured I guess but when you remove seeing the unevenness of the casting/machining of wheel, the rest seems right. Seeing it all together might be a bit misleading due to the optical illusion it might create?
EDIT: You got me curious enough to go check mine out. I just put my bike on the center stand, fired it up, and put it in gear. I see the same "wobble" in the casted center hub area, maybe not as bad but, it's there. The whole drive sprocket area was true to the eye. I closed one eye and lined up what the parts list calls the "RING, RR. PULSER" with the bottom of the center stand mount. I was not able to observe any amount of wobble/out-of-roundness with my naked eye. Seems good to me.
