Quote from a motorbike site explaining trail characteristics -
Too litte trail: With negative or too little trail the bike will handle well at low speeds but will easily develop a dangerous wobble at high speed. Normal Trail: The trail should be... (motorcycle correct distance) so that the bike handles easily at both high and low speeds. Too much Trail: You will have trouble balancing the bike at low speeds and it will handle sluggishly at high speeds.
