Adjusting Rake

28 Apr 2009 13:55

I am thinking about adjusting my KZ1000 LTD rake to be a little more stretched out. I am going for the bobber look and I feel that my front will needs to be out a little more.

Any suggestions?

Is there parts that I can buy that are fairly easy to install?

Without modding the frame you can either buy/make raked triple clamps or run short shocks in the rear and get longer fork tubes for the front.

The PROPER way to rake your bike is the have the steering neck raked by a good chassis builder.
