I'm just curious, but can you tell me how it's not more track geometry? Because its 74, 74 with a 30 rake? Does it have a longer wheelbase? I understand that the trial should be about the same as that of my IRO ( with a 72 ht and 43 rake), because trail is the same with
steep ht +low rake = slack ht + high rake
and that a higher rake is actually more stable that low rake
and thanks bbattle, I read through those articles and they really helped me with the angle and rake thing
