I was just perusing through the Drag Racing forums here and saw several mentions of strapping the front. What is this? I'm assuming it involves limiting the front end travel of the forks? Curious b/c I'd like to take mine out for a few passes before the end of riding season. I've made many caged trips down the 'ole 1320 but never on 2 wheels.
