I did the full blown green RoadGlide in 2007 (on my site). That one has 4" of trail. It belongs to a NY pitcher. One of the nicest guys you will ever meet. For most the 30mm cartridges in a 49mm fork will do the job. Just keep under 135mph and you are good. They are stiff enough for most and way cheaper. The brand new Ohlins inverted forks have the same 30mm cartridges that I have been installing into 49mm forks since 2008 or 2009 (I think).
