there is very little for the clamps to hold on to at that fork setting, hope they didn't ride it like that?:confused:


Looking at the pics, the forks have room to go up and down without straying past the clamp zone on those tubes.



As far as why they did it, maybe they like faster turn in?



Look at my A and B 70s, my B bike sits 'level' according to most people's opinions. To get it there the front forks are sucked up in the tubes.



My A bike is definately rotated forward, the front forks are short to begin with, and I've got them sucked up even more. In back I'm running a longer shock to push the back end up. I guess you'd call it 'stinkbugged' but it rides perfectly for what I'm doing, high speed on pavement.

Got any extra issues or at least a copy of the article?


I will see what I can round up, also they should be in the news stands now..

Mini rider one side, and Mini Moto the other.
