How does rake affect handling?
1) When you change rake, you are moving a VERY SMALL amount of weight. That has almost no effect on handling. 2) When you change ride height (rake) you are moving the roll center and CG. If you started at the ideal point for front and rear grip, changing the roll center reduces grip on that end.
