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.
