But you have the stock setup, which is a combination of the rake of the neck and the rake in the trees, which combine to give you a proper trail figure. The Superglide frame has a different rake in the frame, which will yield a different trail, and thereby affect handling. Plenty of articles on ye olde interweb about rake and trail and their effects.

Some people notice the effects more than others, and each bike seems to really have it's own personality. It could be fine, it could be a bit more pronounced. Only way to tell for sure is to ride it! (Damn old man winter...had to go and poop on us)

I installed 3 degree trees on my bike and it rides smooth as silk at least up about 98mph that I know of. So hopefully you will not have any issues.
