Struts to make very subtle adjustments to assure the clamps/forks are perfectly aligned?

Or perhaps they add strength so in the event of a crash it keeps the forks and clamps from getting all twisted up?

Looks like it would be for adjusting flex. Where did you find it?

They could improve on the design by moving the radiator up there too. Gotta be some way to run the coolant through the steering head and stem.....hmmmmm.

Looks like a device to change the tension on the steering stem bearings to me.
