You would probably find most of their featherbed frames have 60 degree rake.  Ken Mc Intosh's Molnar which Cameron Donald rides has 19 inch wheels and I suspect  54.5 degree rake.  The original  Manx had very short offset fork yokes .  When I fitted 18 inch wheels to my Triton, it buggered the handling and it would have cost too much too make the backwards step.

I probably would not matter much if you did it to a road going Commando, because you don't need it to be nimble in corners.
