I told him that if i was happy with the set he's sending for my sporty, I'd try the new wide monza on my wide glide if the made a version for wide glides. He responded that there was 0 rake in the trees. Now, ignoring the +2 fork length of the wide glide dslider assemblies, does this seem right?
i dont mind trying them aftee the fork length is addressed but, the rake is my concern.
Not sure if it changed but my 08-ish (old 49mm pinch bolt style) trees are about 2 degrees.
there is rake on the fat bob. That may have changed with 2018. Im not sure if the frames are all the same

If needed, I can measure mine with my digital angle finder but I can't guarantee .1 degree accuracy with my shop setup.
it wasn't so much a numbers thing as much as it was a "wtf" thing because what he said didnt jive with the little build-it-bob guy in the back of my mind. Basically, "hold on, that aint right ".
