i believe they can get the proper rake and trail with the tree's these days. i am told(and you know how that is) that they have figured a way to tip the trees in the stock yoke to get the rake look without any mods.




That's been common practice for sidehacks for years. In fact, there was an optional 2 position lower triple clamp for HD's in the 50's made so you can set the rake angle for riding with and without the removable sidecar. Something like that, so you could change the rake to match what you're doing could be almost as good as the adjustable steering dampers Brit bikes used to have.
