Small vertical free play in the rear wheel

[DiasDePlaya]

Hello everyone,

Today I noted that the rear wheel of my FJR year 2008 have a small, like 3 to 5 mm, of free play. I feel that the play is due to some play in the dog bones bolts.

Is normal this free play?

May you park your bike on the central stand and verify is your rear wheel have some free play?

I'm not sure if this play is normal or not.

How many miles - km on the bike?
