Default Performance triple trees

Hey Riders,
Anyone have experience with updating your triple trees to improve handling performance / geometry. I'm seriously looking to change out the stock trees for the Kraus Motor Sports - 49mm sport trees while I'm replacing the stock fork internals with Legend cartridges.
Thanks,
Bruce

Confident

Dallas on Jan 10, 2017 Totally impressed with the improvement these made after installed. The stability of the bike has increased. The speed wobbles I was getting have disappeared. I am able to take corners much faster and with more confidence knowing my bike is not going to be twitchy like stock. Overall great value and huge improvement in performance.


I'd say if you're having any issue like this gentlemen was having I'd jump on it. I've been tossing around the idea of getting a set of the speed merchant trees for my 39mm front end to take care of the last bit of front end wobble I feel after getting new springs and adjusters.

No experience with the Kraus stuff (although it looks quality)

I ran Chassis Design Company trees on my old street bob and was really impressed with the change in feel from a more sturdy billet trees and additional rigidity that came from 2 fasteners per clamping point versus HD's 1 per clamping point.

Thanks for the replies. @Rydercheers, your post looks familiar. You posted on the Kraus site, right?
