Okay but it seems that between 2003 and 2004, the front rake increased with no apparent additions listed on your website, Is it just a camera angle trick or did something else happen to increase the angle? New Triple trees??

Depend on what changes you want to make,strech, up, out, or just the neck raked. How radical are you wanting?
