There are also significant differences during different year ranges... Every Dyna frame changed in 2006, getting heavier and bulkier. For example, much of the frame (but not all) went from 1.25" diameter to 1.5". Something changed in the rear as well to allow for wider rear tire fitment.

I thought my Special was 30.5?

 

The List above is for Frame neck rake (angle) ... NOT Total Fork Angle which includes Tree Rake

You have 1.5° Tree Rake

 

Right, my fork angle is 32 deg, isn’t it? Or am I not understanding the whole topic?

 

You have a 29° Frame with 1.5° Trees (Low Rider Trees) = 30.5° Total Fork Angle

Hmm. Ok. I read otherwise.

 

Show it ... if you're motivated.

Otherwise we'll just leave it at that you digested some Bad Info ... It's everywhere out there you know

Take it easy Multi. No one Is challenging your authority. :-) It was only on third party spec lists. Which are not necessarily worth the pixels they are displayed on.

I can't take it any easier ... really


Yeah, First one is totally wrong...

• Rake: 30.5 degrees
• Fork angle: 32 degrees

So here's from Harley 2017 Dyna Parts Catalog, which just shows the Frame spec, but disproves the premise of 32° Total ... find your bike in there
