    Cups will change the trail a good example of this is the V rod ,have a look at the front of one and you'll see.But I don't know if the cups will give you enough (or less).

    G'Day Bandit,

    Wow u certinaley sound like ur having some issues there, mine is more difficult to move around when parking but aside from that it is great bike till 100km/h cruising

    What you need to do is take some measurements and use the rake and trail calculator to see where you may have a problem

    Who set up the shocks ? you may have issues there..

    I will be looking into installing raked cups in the next few weeks

    Cheers,

    I recently fitted a Kurykan Fork brace to my bike, after suffering the ill handling affects from the raked triple tree's.

    I havent had a chance to go for a good ride yet, as it was raining after I fitted it, and im only home every 6 weeks.

    But I rode it briefly down the highway, and through some tight windy bits and was very impressed by the difference it made.

     

    Cost me around $200 from Rollies Speed Shop.

     

    Looks the goods too.

     

    Mine is same as this....
