Default Pics of wide triple trees on 29deg Dynas

I recently rode a friends 3degrees raked superglide.
I didn't like the feeling of this mod.The optical result was great though!!
I'm thinking to get wide triple trees now , but without rake.
Has anyone pics of his dyna with wide triples and a stock 19" front wheel?
I did some searching and most guys have gone 21"...

is there any rake built into your stock trees? You may want to get WG trees that have the same rake.

No offense, but that sounds kinda goofy. To be sure I understand you correctly, you're wanting a zero rake wideglide front end on a stock rake superglide with a stock 19" spoked wheel? I can't say I've seen it, but it sounds silly. Did something change? My FXDX neck is 28*.

Oh,hell no!
I just want to put wid-ER triple trees with NO rake ,on my bike! (NOT Wide Glide's trees!!)
Just like the Fat bob's.
I do not know though, how it is gonna look with stock FXDC's headlight.
Propably i'll need a bigger one 'cause my headlight looks pretty damn small
on my Dyna...
Just looking for ideas...

Doesn't that bike have mid-glide trees now? The only other option is wide glide trees if you want to just go wider.

here's a poor side view of mine 2005 with inverted wide glide front end and 19" wheel.

i've had a lot of comments - but it's never been called "goofy"

since this pic the headlamp has been moved to the lower tree - much better

pre 06 SG had 28 degrees of rake.

i think stock diameter lamp looks fine

What do you mean when you say "inverted" front end? Sorry, I am not too mechanically inclined, but trying to learn.
