What should be the ride height difference front to rear or the "rake" measuring from the rocker panel or jacking donuts?

Whatever you want it to be.
The original US spec was fairly nose-high, supposedly for US headlight or bumper height regs. Original European spec was more level. I suggest setting it where you think it looks right. --DD |

Personally, I like the nose down a little bit. They did come stock with the nose up in the air. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
