A method of modifying the rake angle on a motorcycle having a double wishbone front suspension. The motorcycle has a tubular steering housing connected to a non-telescoping fork assembly by a straight body steering stem. The method includes the step of replacing the straight body steering stem with a canted body steering stem. The canted body steering stem includes (i) a primary section having a steering axis corresponding to a steering axis of the motorcycle; and (ii) a secondary section having a cant axis which varies from the steering axis by between 1 and 16.

A saddled vehicle includes a steering stem inserted into a center part of a top bridge and having an upper end to be fixed to the top bridge with a fastening member. The saddled vehicle includes a handle locking device placed behind the top bridge in the vehicle front-rear direction. The handle locking device has a locking member and the top bridge includes a retaining recess on the rear face for detachable engagement with the locking member. The center part of the top bridge has a through hole for penetration of the steering stem and a storage recess that stores the upper end of the steering stem and the fastening member and is open toward the upper face of the top bridge. The storage recess continues to the upper part of the through hole while having a bottom that faces upward and is located between the through hole and the wall of the storage recess. The top bridge has a drainage hole connecting the storage recess and the retaining recess.

A foldable electric scooter and a manufacture method of the same. The foldable electric scooter includes a main body assembly, a front fork assembly located at the front end of the main body assembly, a rear fork assembly located at the rear end of the main body assembly, a telescoping plate assembly located on top of the front fork assembly and a handlebar assembly located on top of the telescoping plate assembly. The foldable electric scooter has a double headset design that increases a rake angle for more steering stability while still keeping the steering upright for an upright holding of the handlebars. The foldable electric scooter is manufactured by stamping of flat plate material.

A bicycle has a bicycle frame, two handle bars, and a clamping assembly. The bicycle frame has a front fork having a steerer tube mounted within a head tube of the bicycle frame and a handle mount fastened to the steerer tube and having two receiving tubes longitudinally disposed at two sides of the head tube, respectively. The two handle bars are rotatably mounted to the two receiving tubes, respectively, and each handle bar has a first section inserted inside a corresponding one of the two receiving tubes and a second section integrally fixed to the first section. The clamping assembly has two clamping units respectively mounted around the two receiving tubes and an operating unit connected to the two clamping units and being configured to abut the two clamping units for respectively clamping the two receiving tubes.

A steering assembly for a bicycle includes a front fork that includes an upper crown, a lower crown, and a rigid crown connector that connects the upper crown to the lower crown. The steering assembly also includes an upper cone configured to mount to the upper crown of the front fork. The upper cone includes an upper cone bearing interface configured to interact with an upper bearing assembly seated in an upper portion of a head tube of a bicycle frame. The steering assembly also includes a lower cone configured to mount to the lower crown of the front fork. The lower cone includes a lower cone bearing interface configured to interact with a lower bearing assembly seated in a lower portion of the head tube of the bicycle frame.
