RE: rake

I posted a link to an article a while back about rake and trail. It's not only rake angle but trail. Both affect handling. Maybe search Rake and Trail here or google rake and trail and you'll find it.

RE: rake

thanks all
was supposed to get it tomorrow check drawn today for it and all then thay tell me it wont be till next week
as customs desided to inspect the container that my bike is in so that has held it up[:@]
but i do know it is in the country now and if i dont get it buy next friday ill be real unhappy as it has already been 9 weeks

also apperently all of the 06 dynas and softails coming in to australia have been sold so now thay are taking deposits on 07 models
and heard of a bloke ordering a screeming eagle fatboy and has been waiting for 8 months.

sportsters 883s and r`s seem to be the only bike easy to get over here
