Ok guys, I'm getting close to the point of short-necking and cutting the rails on my bike. I know why it's done, but my question is, is there any reason I wouldn't want to do it? Other than obvious reasons of course. My bike is a committed drag bike at this point too. I know this subject has been talked about a hundred times all over the net, just trying to get some last second opinions. lol
One thing I'm not certain on is this.... Is there enough clamping area on the forks for the clamps without having them machined down so the clamps can go down farther?
The bike is not being setup for any kind of "class" racing either.
If wheelbase is not a concern and the front is low enough with internally cut forks and stock offset clamps is there any reason to shortneck?
Thanks for your .02!
