Anyone out there raked there bagger with his kit? I'm putting a 23 on and obviously have to rake it wondering if anyone likes one kit better than the other or used yaffe's kit. any info would be great. Thanks

 

Theres more to it then just the trees. The angle of your fairing mount will change, and in MHO you have got to rake your frame neck also. YAFFES parts ars great. If you still want to just change your trees check out Kewlmetal.com

 

7 Deg. rake kit on a bagger sounds dangerous to me. What would the trail be on that. The rake kits are great for trikes makes them steer much easier.

 

I installed a 23" on my Road Glide, I used the stock H-D trees from the trike and the rest of the parts are stock!

 

My friend is riding an 08 SG with a 23" front... he didnt change a thing to the rake, trees, etc... all stock except the wheel, tire, rotors, & fender... he just put approx 450 miles on it during Bike Week with no problems... and he had it well over 100mph more than once. I myself dont care for the 23" without the rake because it looks to tall in the front but from what I have seen... it can be done without the rake-headache.

 

i have his 9 degree with rake block kit, as far as i know they wont sell you them with out the rake block kit. i had to sign a few waivers. yaffe uses the hhi one. 23" will fit with out rake but it looks squished IMO. my 26" fits on stock rake (lowered 1.5 from 21") , but i wouldn't ride with it that way.

I should be cutting my frame hopefully in the next week or 2.

cell pic with wheel on - no rake - was curious how much goofier it would look with out a rake.

 

Any pictures?????

 

Here are some picts

 

So if I were to buy this triple tree from JP it would bolt on and give me decent handling with out a nasty wobble? (23 inch tire)

Also, does anyone think that I could run a 26 on the trike trees for a couple months till I can find a shop to do the frame rake of an additional 5-7 degrees??
