Default 2011 Super Glide

I traded in my 09Nightster about two weeks ago for a 11 super glide...sweet bike but I have the urge to put a rake kit on it....I have seen a lot of posts on this subject and I would like to know if I just buy the 3° triple trees will it bolt up and can I use my stock forks and front tire?
Thanks in advance.

My mechanic here in Montana does a ton of those . He uses the 3 degree tree . He does add an inch or two to the over all length of the forks but I am pretty sure he uses stock forks overall. The conversion handles great and looks good too. Im sure more people here on the forum can give you the exact set up specs you need.
