I don't have fishtails but do have Samson duals and I can scrape them on the steeper driveways. I just go a bit slower.

I've pushed my pre-load up to as high as it will go and that has helped a lot. Given as much "stuff" as I seem to be loading on the bike, I think the next step is a shotgun or set of Progressives.
