Anyone add any rake to front of your touring bikes.Im thinking that 4 degrees or so will sablize front end more and maybe help woth high speed wobble that has a ridge in seat from my *** sucking it up at 120 when the back end starts trying to come around the front end or so it fells like.Im going to try few other things first then add rake and see how it handles.

Maybe next month I will have time and wram enough weather to
fix the pump
