triple tree conversion
Anybody do a triple tree conversion or new forks. I hate the way the narrow glide frontend looks would like to go with midglide. Any pictures out there Thanks

RE: triple tree conversion
I just switched my narrow glide on my 96' lowrider over to an Ultima Wide glide front end. Love the way it looks and handles. There are a lot of costs that go hand in hand with the switch if you decide to do it. I decided to switch my front wheel to a 21" wide glide wheel, instead of buying a hub spacer kit. Also you fender may not bolt directly to the forks and may need to be modified or replaced with a wide glide fender. Since I am switching the front wheel from a stock 96' lowrider front wheel, I am going to a chrome billet aluminum custom wheel, along with a matching rear wheel, and then replacing the rubber. You'll probably also switch your headlight (not sure about newer dyna's), as my older dyna had the small ugly headlight with the eyebrow. Since my eyebrow is what housed the indicator lights, I had to deal with that issue and if you read my post on relocating them, you'll see that some pretty innovative solutions can make that work. Here is mine.... good luck
