发明名称 ASSEMBLY FOR ADJUSTING RAKE ANGLE AND TRAIL ON A MOTORCYCLE
摘要 An assembly for a motorcycle is disclosed which can adjust rake angle and trail on a motorcycle. The assembly includes an inner housing which engages with an outer housing. The outer housing attaches to the frame of a motorcycle and has a first aperture and at least two additional apertures. The inner housing has a pair of angled apertures formed therethrough, a first aperture aligned with the first aperture formed in the outer housing, and at least two additional apertures each of which is capable of being aligned with one of the at least two additional apertures formed in the outer housing. First and second attachment members join the inner housing to the outer housing at a predetermined angle. The assembly also includes a pair of forks capable of supporting an axle on which a front wheel is mounted. Each of the pair of forks has a first end which passes through one of the pair of angled apertures formed in the inner housing. The pair of angled apertures establishes the rake angle for the motorcycle. The assembly further includes a pair of brackets each secured adjacent to a second end of each of the pair of forks. Each of the pair of brackets has at least two spaced apart grooves formed therein for receiving the axle.

主权项 1. An assembly for adjusting rake angle and trail on a motorcycle, comprising: a) an outer housing having attachment means for pivotably securing said outer housing to a motorcycle frame, a first aperture and at least two additional apertures; b) an inner housing engaging said outer housing, said inner housing having a pair of angled apertures formed therethrough, a first aperture aligned with said first aperture formed in said outer housing, and at least two additional apertures each of which is capable of being aligned with one of said at least two additional apertures formed in said outer housing; c) a first attachment member passing through said first apertures formed through said outer and inner housings for securing said inner housing to said outer housing; d) a second attachment member passing through one of said at least two additional apertures formed through said outer and inner housings for securing said inner housing at a predetermined angle to said outer housing; e) a pair of forks capable of supporting an axle on which a front wheel is mounted, each of said pair of forks having a first end and a second end, each of said first ends passing through one of said pair of angled apertures formed in said inner housing, and said pair of angled apertures establishing a rake angle for said motorcycle; and f) a pair of brackets, each secured adjacent to said second end of each of said pair of forks, each of said pair of brackets having at least two spaced apart grooves formed therein for receiving said axle, whereby one can adjust the rake angle and trail of said motorcycle by adjusting the position of said inner housing to said outer housing and by positioning said axle across said pair of brackets using a different pair of said spaced apart grooves.
