Arrow Motorcycle frame geometry design

Hi all.

Do any of you know how the rear shock of a motorcycle is setup in terms of frame angle geometry?

What I'm asking is what's the best angle for the rear shock to be placed so it can work like it should?

I know i has to do with the wheel base, rider position and center of mass but how do calculate this?

Ideas???
