Looking to keep my midglide front end but get a little more rake. what do you think of these with 3 degrees rake? I am assuming this will do the same as wide glide trees. The rake will be increased 1.5 degrees. True?

I wondered about that too. The HD specs for my lowrider says the rake steering head is 29 degrees. I assume that means the angle of thesteering head on the frame. The HD website says it has a "49mm front forks with 30.5 degree rake angle". I guess that means the rake of the forks. So, if I understand this correctly, the trees must have 1.5 degrees of rake.

So, The 3 degree triple trees in the Drag Specialties catalog will add another 1.5 degrees.

Is that how you see it? Or, did I get this all Fd up as usual?

Finally, if all of that is true, how will it ride to have a total of 3 degrees of rake in the trees? Is the trail going to be stable/safe?

 

I think it will ride/handle the same as doing a wide glide conversion.
