You don't need a dial indicator. Just rest a pencil or screwdriver on the caliper or fork leg and put the point on or near the rotor and rotate the wheel. If you see different space between the pointer as it spins you'll know the rotor is slightly warped. I used to true wheels in the field on bicycles by using the distance between the brake pads as a guide.
