Does anyone know if I have to shorten the tubes if going with stock 32 degree rake I'm going with a 23 x 3 front wheel and searching for wider triple trees

 

Heres how it sits now<br/>

 

it will lift it up considerably, raked trees help. look at Dynabagger85 posts. 23 with stock length forks and no rake trees. he did not like how high it set up and is selling wheel.

 

The extra 4 degrees in the neck on mine wouldn't make a difference then?

 

it will help, did not snap to your lowrider being an older one with rake built into the frame. if you already have a 21 on the front, find a piece of 2x4 and roll front wheel onto it. this will give you an idea of the height the bike will set , without lowering the forks. if you do lower the forks take into mind that the wheel will also sit higher up in your lower legs, mine about two inches above dust ring.


if this is something your into, do it! don't let any nasayer **** on your plans.
I jumped in the 23 and was happy until I went with a chain and could not find a sprocket in the size I wanted to match my rc components wheels. so I figured if I were to get a new set of wheels to match a steel sprocket I got, why not go bigger?
so.....currently running with a 26. I am sure to be flamed for my choice, but it is my madness and money........so rock on.

 

23" on a Dyna is a good look
